[제품기술]디지털 전력 공급의 전망(DRP/DBR시리즈와 시스템 전력용 CMU 컨트롤러의 조합)

요약내용: 기존의 아날로그 전원 공급 장치는 저렴한 비용, 간단한 회로 설계 및 빠른 응답이 장점을 가진 제품이지만 제한된 어플리케이션, 복잡한 전력 시스템을 통합 할 수 없는 등 단점이 있습니다.


 디지털화 된 전원 공급 장치에는 프로그래밍 가능한 전원 관리 인터페이스가 있어서 소프트웨어를 통해 다양한 응용 분야의 요구를 충족 시킬 수 있습니다. 


DRP / DBR-3200 시리즈는 고전력 밀도, 내장 PMBus 및 CANBus(옵션) 프로토콜 및 병렬 처리가 가능한 고효율 전원 공급 장치입니다. 

시스템 전원은 원예, UV 경화, 레이저 가공, UV 하수 처리, EV 충전 스테이션 및 번인 에이징 시스템을 포함하여 높은 전력 요구 사항으로 다양한 산업 분야에 적용될 수 있습니다.



1. Digitalized PSU 

 (1) The advantages of digitalized PSU The conventional power supply is based on analogous control which has advantages of low cost, simple circuity design and fast response. However, there are some disadvantages of analog PSUs, such as limited application, specific function, unable to integrate complex power system by using simple interface and difficult to fine-tune the compensation of control loop. Digitalized power supply has a programmable power management interface to set up different operating modes and control parameters via software to meet the needs from different applications. Table 1 below shows the advantages of digitalized PSU. 

 Table 1: The comparisons between digitalized PSU and analog PSU


 (2) DRP/DBR-3200 series digital power supplies DRP/DBR-3200 series products are high efficiency power supplies which have 1U low profile with high power density up to 37W/inch3, built-in PMBus and CANBus (optional) protocols and parallelable. DRP/DBR-3200 series products provide vast design flexibility, multi built-in functions including three stage programmable charging curves (DBR-3200), programmable output (PV & PC), active current sharing, remote on/off control, auxiliary power, hot plug, and etc. Fig. 1 shows the DRP-3200 power supply module and Fig. 2 shows the power system of DHP-1U power shelf.

 (2) System power architecture System power is the best choice for high power applications due to the following advantages, such as integrated power control/monitoring and unified power management, greatly improving management efficiency, high energy efficiency, reducing the complexity of installation, wiring and maintenance, and reducing operating costs significantly. System power contains the following software and hardware components, Hardware includes power supply modules, 19” power shelf, RKP-CMU1 power shelf and 19” rackmount cabinet as shown in Fig. 5 below. Software (RKP-CMU1 controller) comprises of power management human-machine interface, communication interfaces (I2C, RS-485, RS-232) and protocols (CANBus, Modbus, PMBus), Networks (LAN, WAN, CAN), and etc.
