Theory of Operation — PG 505 +48 Volt Supply. The regulator for the + 48 volt supply voltage is amplified by Q566 and Q576 and used to change consists of Q566 (an error sensing and amplifier tran the conduction of Q580 to correct output voltage. R564 sistor), Q576 (an error amplifier and regulator transistor), provides current limiting for Q566 in case Q576fails.
