The New Focus Model 0901 Power Supply is a tripleoutput, ±15-V DC power supply. Each of the outputs is
current limited: the banana-jack output to 100 mA and
the two micro-connector outputs to 300 mA. While
the supply can be used as a general-purpose supply, it
is primarily intended for use with those New Focus
products that require a ±15-V power supply.

Getting Started
The three ±15-V outputs of the Model 0901 are all
derived from a common, 0.8-A linear supply, but are
independently current limited, as shown in Figure 2.
Since each output is independently limited, the voltage
on each output differs slightly. All three ±15-V outputs
will, however, be within ±3% of ±15 V.

The Model 0901 can operate at 100, 120, 220, or 240 V
AC with AC frequencies of 47–63 Hz. The unit is
configured at the factory for the standard AC voltage in
the purchaser’s country.

New Focus offers two types of cables for use with the
Model 0901:
Model #Description
0921
Cable, 3 banana plugs (male) to Microtech connector female, 1 meter
0922
Cable, Microtech connector female to
Microtech connector female, 1 meter
Connect a Model 0921 cable to one of the 0.3-A
outputs to provide banana-jack outputs for general
laboratory use. This cable should not be used to drive a
New Focus photoreceiver or amplifier from the Model
0901’s 0.1-A banana-jack output since it provides
insufficient current for New Focus products.
The colored male-banana plugs on the Model 0921
cable follow the color-coding convention listed on
page 11 for the Model 0901 banana jacks: red is +15 V,
green is common, and black is -15 V. This cable can
also be used with a power supply other than the Model
0901 to power a New Focus product.
When powering a New Focus product with the Model
0901, use a Model 0922 cable on one of the supply’s
