      In the JanuarylFebruary issue of
      Bench Briefs we saw that one of the
                                                                                  Series regulator
      major considerations of a linear
      supply is the internal power dis-
      sipated by the series regulator.                                                                              o < =         1

      We found that by adding a pre-
      regulator t o control the voltage
      input, we could reduce the power
      dissipated a n d t h e number of
      transistors in the series regulator.                                                                           OUT

c     What the Preregulator Does

      The preregulator, as shown in
                                                                          3-43v

      approximately three volts. This
      regulator voltage is held relatively
      constant regardless of input o r
      output conditions. Therefore, when
      troubleshooting a unit that has no
      control (either locked up or down),
      in almost every case, if you have
      any output the preregulator circuit
      is probably operating properly. If
      you have no output but do have
      regulator voltage (three to six volts),
      again no problem with the pre-
      regulator. ONLY when you have
      BOTH no output AND no regulator
      voltage (<1volt) should you suspect
      the preregulator.

the B waveform as shown in Figure 3.
As the waveform goes in a pos-
itive direction through the firing
threshold (approximately -0.6V), the
pulse generator is "reset." When the
waveform goes negative through
this threshold, the pulse generator                                                   B

Another important aspect of this
circuit is t h a t when you pull C
positive, no pulses are produced and
the input line is effectively turned
off. This feature is used to disable

conditions. One example is when the
crowbar fires. Not only is the output

         goes low as shown in Figure 5, the
         transistors saturate and clip the

         of the supply as high ripple at twice

         Because the input circuit contains a                                -6.2

         that eliminates this problem.

         Resistors R24 and R25 compare the
         voltage across the regulator to the
         -6.2 volt reference. When the reg-
         ulator voltage exceeds a preset level
         of about eight volts, Q20 turns on
         and places R26 in parallel with the
         current pot R123. This effectively
         "turns down" the current limit to
         about 10 percent of the supply's

         current is held at this level until
