The Philips PE 1542 is a power supply which consists of three adjustable outputs, linear regulating, non-switching type. For sensitive measurements where signal spectrum measurements are required, switching type power supplies are less suitable, because they generate small amounts of (harmonic) signal noise themselves. Linear regulators are therefore most suitable for such applications. The power supply is based around three modules with each having a traditional ua723c regulator IC. The specifications of the power supply are: | The Philips PE 1542 is a power supply which consists of three adjustable outputs, linear regulating, non-switching type.

+ | * Mount the 6 potentiometers on an aluminium L-profile, Mount the whole assembly on the front panel with two spacers. | ||
+ | * Mount each switch behind an existing switch, by removing the original contacts. Then cut a square hole at the back of the original plastic handle. By shortening the handle of the new switch, at will fit into the back of the old handle. Use a small test circuit board or similar and some threaded rod (Which I soldered to the metal casing of the original switch) and screws to mount the new switch. | ||
+ | * On the main PCB, increase the 6 holes for the potentiometers to a diameter of 12mm. The new potentiometers are too short and must be soldered using additional wires, as can be seen on the last picture below. | ||
