ABS> This report describes a power supply designed to feed transistor circuits employed in the counting system. Output voltages of +30, +15, +10.5. +1.5, and --30 volts are available which do not change by more than plus or minus 3% for changes from zero to full load and mains input changes of plus or minus 10%. The total output power can be as high as 15 watts distributed approximately equally between positive and negative voltage lines. Stabilization of the output voltages is achieved by controlling the a-c fed to the main power transformer. A transistor amplifier, which operates from au error signal obtained by comparing a Zener reference voltage with one of the ouiput voltages, performs the controlling. (auth)
