A new VME based high voltage power supply for large experiments
Abstract
A new VME based high voltage power supply has been developed for the D(O) experiment at Fermilab. There are three types of supplies delivering up to (plus minus)5.6 kV at 1.0 mA or +2.0 kV at 3.0 mA with a set accuracy of 1.5 V and extremely low voltage ripples. Complete computer control has allowed many special features to be developed for the supply, including user-defined control land monitor groups, variable ramp rates, and advanced histogram and graphic functions.
