 4 QUADRANTS POWER AMPLIFIERS
ONE PHASE OR THREE PHASES

Current
What does 4 QUADRANTS mean ? The amplifiers operate
in voltage regulation with current limitation.
Q2 Q1
"Q1" and "Q3“: the amplifier behaves as a Generator (U<0 and I>0) (U>0 and I>0)

Voltage
or Source: the instantaneous power is positive.

"Q2" and "Q4“: the amplifier behaves as an Absorber or Q3 Q4

a Sink: the instantaneous power is negative. (U<0 and I<0) (U>0 and I<0)
The amplifier is considered as a reversible power supply.

On a time scale, voltage in Blue trace, current in Red trace, power in Green trace:

One amplifier is made of:

One AF synthesizer
AC, DC signal or customized waveform
Amplitude 0~±10V peak
One "Pilot" input
Amplitude 0~±10V peak
A three-phase amplifier is
Impedance 10 kΩ
composed of 3 one-phase
One power output
amplifiers, electrically separated
Insulated from “Pilot” input
from each other.
Insulated from case ground
Two "Image" outputs insulated from power output
