3.7.2 Power Distribution

The 48 Volts are supplied by the backplane via two independent rails, primary (A) and second-

ary (B). The rails are mixed using power Schottky rectifiers. A 7A fuse protects each -48V line

and a 10A fuse protects each RTN line. A hot swap controller enables the 48V power to the

board.

A quarter brick DC/DC converter transforms the 48 Volts to secondary 12 Volts, which are dis-

tributed on the board. The converter allows a maximum of 14A output current.

Two different management voltages (3.3V and 5V) and five payload voltages (3.3V, 2.5V, 1.8V,

1.25V and 1.2V) are generated by point of load converters. These are either switches or linear

regulators.
