THEORY OF OPERATION
8.1.
PRINCIPLE
The switching electronic CSA96 is dedicated to supply and control magnetic actuators. The CSA96 includes a
power supply with a maximal power given in the technical data sheet.
Figure 12 – Output stage principle.
The switching amplifier is built around full bridge PWM technology for high efficiency. The switching frequency
of the transistors is 25 kHz. The effective switching frequency on the actuator is 50 kHz.
Warning
The output connections are floating.
The amplifier is only intended to drive magnetic actuators. Connecting capacitive
actuators (such as piezo-actuators) on the outputs of the CSA96 will lead to the
destruction of the amplifier.

EFFICIENCY AND COOLING
For the internal supply version, the maximum power losses of the amplifier and the internal power supply are
40W (amplifier) and 65W (power supply). With the thermal resistance of the base plate of 0.375K/W, it leads
