Abstract :
Different types of power supplies that have been developed for the linac and VUV (vacuum ultraviolet) storage ring of LNLS (Laboratorio Nacional de Luz Sincrotron) are discussed. For the low-current and low-voltage mode, a switching transistor regulator renders a stable and compact power supply. For low voltage and medium current, a transistor series regulator is used. For medium current and voltage, a modular combination of silicon controlled rectifier (SCR) converter and switching regulator provides a satisfactory solution with a distribution of power handling adequate to the characteristics of each electronic device
