  2. Presentation Overview • Problem statement and solutions • Summary of activities • Resource requirements • Summary of progress • Questions

  3. General Problem Statement • Develop a power supply with the following voltages: +1.5V,  3.0V, +3.2V, +4.5V,  5.0V, +6.0V, +7.5V, +9.0V,  12.0V, +15.0V, +18.0V, +24.0V • Output 2 + voltage outputs and 2 + voltage outputs simultaneously • Produce for a low cost (~$150) • Allow a maximum current of 1A through each set of terminals

  4. Solution Approach • Develop general design • Simulate and test on CAD program • Order parts • Assemble • Test • Modify and re-test if necessary

  5. Operating Environment • Standard laboratory conditions • Indoors • Approximately 24 degrees Celsius • Standard 120V, 60 Hz wall output

  6. End Users and Uses • Users • Research and design students • Faculty • Uses • Power and test design projects • Produce a small current at many voltages • Provide several voltages simultaneously

  7. Assumptions and Limitations • Assumptions • All four outputs will be used simultaneously • Power supply will be used indoors at room temp • Power supply will be powered by 120V, 60 Hz • Limitations • Output current limited to 1A max per output • Total cost must be below $150 • Input must be 120V at 60 Hz

  8. End Product Description • 4 selectable output voltage terminal sets • Maximum current of 1A per output • Output voltage selected by rotary knobs • Digital readout of voltage, current and wattage • Fuses for power supply protection

  9. End Product

  10. Present Accomplishments • Schematic simulated and successful • Successfully implemented transformer and bridge rectifiers on circuit board • Successfully implemented +/- voltages on circuit board • Examined methods of implementing positive only voltages

  11. Approaches to the Design • Recycle/modify/incorporate existing insufficient power supplies • Create and design an original power supply • Use store-bought voltage converters • Design and create voltage converters • Flyback converter • Buck converters • LM317T/LM337T voltage regulators

  12. Project Definition Activities • The power supply specs were expanded from the original to include the following: • +3.2V, +7.5V, +15V, and +18V • 2 + voltage outputs and 2 + voltage outputs • Ammeter and voltmeter

  13. Research Activities • The need for more voltage outputs was researched. • It was found that the additional voltages of +3.2V, +7.5V, +15V, and +18V would be useful for small home electronics • Also researched various power supply designs for ideas to implement in the final product.

  14. LM317T/LM337T Voltage Regulators • Adjustable output down to +1.2v • Adjustable current limiting feature • Line regulation typically .01%/V • Load regulation typically .1% • 80 dB ripple rejection

  15. TL494 PWM Control Circuit • Up to 200 kHz oscillator frequency • Feedback allows voltage and current regulation

  16. Design Activities • Different implementation schematics tested • Because the LM317T/LM337T voltage regulators are not in the Workbench/Pspice libraries, the circuits were physically tested

  19. Project Schedule

  20. Project Schedule, cont.

  21. Project Evaluation • Done on a scale of: incomplete = 0%, to complete = 100% • Milestones: • Overall Status: Prototype

  22. Commercialization • Estimated cost to produce: $100 - $200 • Estimated sales price: $400 - $1000 • It is anticipated that this product would have a very large market • Versatile • Financially viable

  23. Recommendations forAdditional Work • Finish original implementation • Develop a commercial version • Add power factor correction • Make each set of terminals fully isolated • Make current limitation adjustable

  24. Lessons Learned • What worked • Team worked well at brainstorming, designing • Advisor was helpful when we got stuck • Regular, scheduled meeting • What did not work • Collaborating on reports and poster • Weekly status reports • Ordering parts • Gaining the necessary knowledge • Advisor absence for extended period of time

  25. Lessons Learned (cont) • Technical knowledge gained • How power supplies work • How DC-DC converters work • How transformers work • How to use Workbench • Things to do differently • Put more time into research early on

  26. Risks and Risk Management • Illness • Follow good health practices • Take on some of the sick member’s workload among the other members • Accidents such as electrocution or fire • Follow high voltage safety procedures when assembling • Cut power, use First Aid, call 911, put out fire • Losing a team member • Be such a good team that nobody wants to leave • Divide the work among the remaining members, seek assistance from colleagues

  27. Summary • Problem: Replace the current power supplies with a single versatile tool • Approach: Consider several different alternatives by which multiple voltages can be provided simultaneously by a single power supply • Solution: Provide two plus/ground terminals and two plus/minus/ground terminals whose voltage can be set independently of the others. Also provide meters to display the voltage, current, and wattage of the selected set of terminals
