HV REGULATOR WITH FOLDBACK CURRENT LIMITING


Posted on Feb 5, 2014

A TMOS MTM7N45 (Q2) is used as a series pass element in a linear high voltage supply that accepts +275-V unregulated and produces 250 V regulated with foldback current limiting. A 15-V zener, D1, provides the dc reference for operational amplifier U1, whose other input is obtained from a fraction of the output voltage. UI drives Q3, which drives t

he gate of Q2. Foldback current limiting is achieved by RI, R2, R3, R4, Q1, and D2. The formula to estab!ish the current "knee" for limiting is:
