Improved limiter for turn-on current transient

Circuit limits the turn-on current transient to a specified amplitude and provides a low-impedance path between supply voltage and load after a prescribed time interval. The circuit offers a wide range of flexibility in adjusting peak current and automatic control of the initial peak current.

Circuit Controls Turn-On Current

Single choke used in primary circuit with diode arrangement, maintaining dc current flow through choke and setting up a unidirectional magnetic field, limits turn-on current of transformer-rectifier power supply. Technique reduces number and weight of components and minimizes effect of initial inrush surge current on source.
