Abstract
Disclosed is a power supply which can be optionally designed in accordance with the objects. Main parts constructing a power supply are divided into noise filter module 3, power factor and harmonic correction module 4, D.C./D.C.converter 5, back-up power supply module 7, and the like. Each module is optionally combined and connected to one another, thus a user can freely design a power supply depending upon the various specifications thereof.
Claims9
A power supply constructed by combining a plurality of modules, comprising:
- a noise filter module for rejection of noises from A.C. input voltage line;
- a rectifying module which rectifies and smooths said A.C. input voltage from said noise filter module;
- power converter modules for converting rectified and smoothed D.C. voltage from said rectifying module into preset D.C. output voltage,
- wherein there are provided plural types of modules with respect to at least said power converter modules, such that one or more power converter modules can be selectively combined, corresponding to a specification of the power supply,
- wherein said modules are independently packaged with respect to main components constructing the power supply, each having one or more terminals which allow the main component to be connected to the other components.

A power supply constructed by combining a plurality of modules, comprising:
- a noise filter module for rejection of noises from A.C. input voltage line;
- power factor and harmonic correction modules for bringing the current and voltage waveforms of said A.C. input voltage from said noise filter module close to each other;
- power converter modules for converting regulated D.C. input voltage from said power factor and harmonic correction module into preset D.C. output voltage;
- a back-up power supply module for supply of substitute D.C. voltage to said power converter modules in case of abnormal stop of the supply of said regulated D.C. input voltage from said power factor and harmonic correction module,
- wherein there are provided plural types of modules with respect to at least said power factor and harmonic correction modules and power converter modules, such that one or more power factor and harmonic correction modules can be selectively combined with one or more power converter modules, corresponding to a specification of the power supply,
- wherein said modules further comprises a power supply monitoring module having a control module therein to simultaneously monitor the input and output side of the power supply, and
- wherein said modules are independently packaged with respect to main components constructing the power supply, each having one or more terminal which allow the main component to be connected to the other components.
