Power converters for IRFEL

The Infrared Free Electron Laser (IRFEL) developed at RRCAT. Power converters for various magnets in the beam line of IRFEL project are low power units (50 nos. + 10 nos. spare) rated for 13 A/ 15 V maximum with ±100/±400 ppm stability requirement of the output current. Power converter design has been standardized on a standard 6U card with full-function feedback control and local-remote operation interface electronics on the same card. Five such power converters are housed in one 6U, 19-inch rack.
