Status and Control
The Rectifier provides two means for monitor/control: analog or
I2C.
Details of analog controls are provided in this data sheet under
Signal Definitions. GE Energy will provide separate application
notes on the I2C protocol for users to interface to the CPL
rectifiers. Contact your local GE Energy representative for details.
Hot Plug
Care should be taken extracting and reinserting modules to
allow for depletion of internal bias. Reinsertion should be
delayed for about 60 seconds to guarantee resetting of the
internal circuitry into its default state.
Without bleeding down internal bias, the module may remember
its last assigned address and may not configure itself properly if
reinserted into another slot.
Control Definitions
All signals are referenced to Logic_GRD unless otherwise noted.
See the Signal Definitions Table at the end of this document for
further description of all the signals.
Input Signals
Margining: The output voltage set point of the rectifier can be
changed by adjusting the voltage at the Margin pin. The Margin
pin voltage can be adjusted either via an adjustable external
voltage source or a resistance divider. The margining pin is
connected to 3.3Vdc via a 10k resistor inside the rectifier as
shown in the graph below. The graph below also shows the
relationship between the output voltage setpoint and the margin
pin voltage.

Inside
module
An open circuit on this pin sets the voltage level back to the
original setting.
Software commanded margining overrides the hardware set point
indefinitely or until the default setting is reinstated; for example if
input power and bias power have been removed from the module.
Module Present Signal: This signal has dual functionality. It can be
used to alert the system when a rectifier is inserted. A 500 resistor
is present in series between this signal and Logic_GRD. An external
pull-up should not raise the voltage on the pin above 0.25Vdc. When
the voltage on this pin exceeds 1Vdc, the write_protect feature of
the EEPROM is enabled.
Protocol Select: Establishes the communications mode of the
rectifier, between analog/I2C and RS485 modes. For RS485, connect
a 10k pull-down resistor from this pin to 54_OUT(-DC).
Enable: On/Off control when I2C communications are utilized as
configured by the Protocol pin. This pin must be pulled low to turn
ON the rectifier. The rectifier will turn OFF if either the Enable or the
ON/OFF pin is released. This signal is referenced to Logic_GRD.
ON/OFF: This is a shorter pin utilized for hot-plug applications to
ensure that the rectifier turns OFF before the power pins are
disengaged. It also ensures that the rectifier turns ON only after the
power pins have been engaged. Must be connected to V_OUT (-DC)
for the rectifier to be ON.
Output Signals
Power Capacity: A HI on this pin indicates that the rectifier delivers
high line rated output power; a LO indicates that the rectifier is
connected to low line configured for 1200W operation.
Power Fail Warning: This signal is HI when the main output is being
delivered and goes LO for the duration listed in this data sheet prior
to the output decaying below the voltage level listed in this data
sheet.
Alert #: I2C interrupt signal, functionally equivalent to the PMBus
#SMBALERT signal.
Fault: This signal goes LO for any failure that requires rectifier
replacement. Some of these faults may be due to:
Fan failure
Over-temperature condition
Over-temperature shutdown
Over-voltage shutdown
Internal Rectifier Fault
