Abstract

862,099. Transistor circuits. GENERAL ELECTRIC CO. Ltd., and DRYBROUGH, D. A. S. July 16, 1959 [July 17, 1958], No. 22929/58. Class 40(6) [Also in Group XXXV] A unit 8 to protect the transistors in electrical equipment against source voltage rises appreciably above the nominal value, includes negative and positive D.C. input terminals 9, 10, respectively across which are two circuits in parallel, one of which comprises a variable potentiometer 17 and the other a resistance 19 and a voltage stabilising device 20 in series. Terminal 9 is connected directly to output terminal 11 and terminal 10 is connected through a resistance 13, shunted by normally closed contacts 14 of a relay 15, to output terminal 12. The unit is completed by a P-N-P junction transistor 16 with its base connected to a tapping on potentiometer 17, its collector connected through the operating coil of relay 15 to terminal 9 and its emitter connected, through a temperature stabilising low valued resistance 18, to the common terminal of resistance 19 and voltage stabilising device 20. At a certain excess voltage, predetermined by the setting of potentiometer 17, the magnitude of the collector current through coil of relay 15 becomes sufficient to operate the relay and open contact 14, thus bringing resistance 13 into circuit with a corresponding decrease in voltage to restore the output voltage across terminals 11, 12 to the nominal source voltage value. Terminals 11, 12 are connected to the input terminals of electrical equipment to which the protection device is suited, typical equipment being a D.C. " step-up " converter having circuit 1 which includes an oscillator having the protected transistors 2, 3. In another embodiment, unit 8 is provided with a series of control steps by the inclusion of one or more further resistors, with corresponding further relays, arranged to operate in succession as the source voltage progressively increases above its nominal value.
