Power Supply Systems are 100% internally developed and designed to install into a standard 19” relay rack. The mainframes and dedicated HV/LV boards were purposefully designed to provide peak performance in a broad spectrum of operational scenarios and for a vast number of detector types. CAEN mainframe systems are modular, making upgrade and maintenance a breeze.A single mainframe may house and provide control for up to 768 independent channels. Each mainframe may be configured with a mixture of both High Voltage boards for detector bias and Low Voltage boards to drive peripheral electronics.

The CPU controller is offered in three versions: BASIC, ADVANCED and FULL:- The BASIC version provides communication interface, RESET control, INTERLOCK control, and STATUS LED indicators.- The ADVANCED builds upon the above by adding beam handshake management connectors (CH-ON, GEN, VSEL, ISEL).- The FULL version provides a complete array of panel connectors, an ENABLE control section, and fan speed control.
The Power Supply Unit (PSU) is available in three versions: Primary, Optional Single and Optional Double.- The Primary PSU (A4531) is the standard SYx527 power supply block. It includes the SERVICE and 600 WPSU within a single slot module. Each SY4527/SY5527 includes one A4531 Primary Power Supply.- The Optional Single PSU provides an additional 600W of power in a single slot module.- The Optional Double PSU provides an additional 1200W of power in a single slot module.

The Power Supply Systems are the heart of any experiment. They provide the High voltage and Low voltage required by the detectors and by the related front-end electronics. The quality of the power supply is critical to obtain the best performance from the set-up. The sensibility of modern detectors, in fact, make them susceptible to any even small variation in the power supply, and so features like low Noise, low Ripple and high stability become essential in the design of a performing power supply system. Strong of 40 years of collaboration with the most important research labs worldwide CAEN offers today sophisticated High Voltage Power Supply and Low Voltage Power Supply Systems. The demonstration of this successful long-standing tradition is the “CMS Crystal Award 2009” that CAEN received for the development and production of the power system for the CMS tracker. CAEN offers a wide selection of Power Supplies in different form factors and standards:- For smaller set-ups Standalone or modular (NIM / VME) products or are the ideal fit.- For bigger set-ups, where a high number of High voltages and Low voltages is required, the Mainframe Systems and Boards (up to 48 channels/board, up to 768 channels in a single Mainframe) are the most recommended.
