Figure 4: Supply voltage for system units
Description
15 V is generated from the supply voltage using a DC-to-DC converter. This electrically isolated 15 V supplies
further DC/DC converters, which generate the remaining voltage.
After the system is turned on (e.g. using the power button), the 3V3 and 5 V voltages are applied to the bus. At
the 5 V output, another DC-to-DC converter generates -12 V and applies this to the bus. An additional DC/DC
converter gen12 V.
The optional Add-on UPS (with battery unit) is supplied with 15 V and provides an uninterrupted power supply from
the 15 V bus during power failures.
