5.4.1
Voltage Ramp
Power supplies must comply with the following guidelines, in order to be used with the CP932.
• Beginning at 10% of the nominal output voltage, the voltage must rise within
> 0.1 ms to < 20 ms to the specified regulation range of the voltage. Typically:
> 5 ms to < 15 ms.
• There must be a smooth and continuous ramp of each DC output voltage from
10% to 90% of the regulation band.
• The slope of the turn-on waveform shall be a positive, almost linear voltage increase and
have a value from 0 V to nominal Vout.
5.4.2
Voltage Sequencing Requirements
The +5 VDC output level must always be equal to or higher than the +3.3 VDC output during
power-up and normal operation.

Rise Time Diagram
The following figure illustrates an example of the recommended voltage ramp of a CompactPCI
power supply for all Kontron boards delivered up to now.
