D3000 3.4 - Power Supplies-1
Items supplied with the D3000 3.4
study module include:
ƒ Circuit board
ƒ Laboratory manual
ƒ Storage case
Additional items required:
ƒ D3000 Experiment Platform
or
D3000 Virtual Instrument Platform (VIP)
ƒ Two Digital Multimeters*
ƒ Oscilloscope*
ƒ Signal Generator*
* Note that separate test instruments are
not needed if the D3000 VIP is used, as
all required test equipment is provided
in the form of on-screen ‘virtual’
instruments.
If a D3000 VIP is used, or if the study
module is to be used in a ClassAct
computer managed learning environment,
then a student PC will also be required.
Optional supporting items:
The D3000 3.4 study module introduces
students to the circuits used in power
supply units.
This study module has been designed
specifically to operate within a DIGIAC
modular electronics program. It comprises
a circuit board and student laboratory
manual housed in an injection molded
storage case.
When used in conjunction with a student
personal computer (PC), the laboratory
manual is fully compatible with the
ClassAct computer managed learning
system.
The laboratory manual is divided into a
series of chapters. Each covers a specific
topic area and provides background
theory, practical activities and student
assessment questions.
Each chapter is designed around a list of
performance objectives. These objectives
are used by the ClassAct management
system to generate a student competency
report.

ƒ Protection
ƒ Variable Output Voltage
ƒ Fault Diagnosis
ƒ IC Power Supplies-1
ƒ IC Power Supplies-2
ƒ Switch-Mode Supply
Instructor Solutions Book
Provides question solutions and typical
results for all work provided in the
laboratory manual.
Typical activities include:
ƒ Compare the operation of simple halfwave and full-wave rectifier circuits.
ƒ Determine the output resistance,
ripple amplitude and percentage
ripple of a power supply.
ƒ Determine by investigation the
operation of a zener/transistor stabilizer
circuit.
ƒ Determine by investigation the
operation of a power supply with
over-current protection.
ƒ Determine by investigation the
operation of a power supply with
over-voltage protection.
ƒ Determine by examination the circuit
operation of a variable voltage power
supply.
ƒ Diagnose faults in a variable voltage,
over-current protected power supply
circuit.
ƒ Measure the percentage regulation of
a dual-polarity, split power supply.
ƒ Determine, through measurements,
the efficiency and regulation of a
variable supply regulator.
ƒ Determine by investigation the
operation of a switch mode power
supply.
