While most users are not concerned about the absolute readout of variac output voltage, a more accurate digital meter may be desirable.<\/h2>\n

Over the years, Circuit Specialists has offered several different sizes of Variacs. These variable autotransformers<\/a> have proven to be not only reliable, but can make a huge difference when it come to protecting your electronics. The only reoccurring complaint we’ve received on these units has been based around the accuracy of the built in analog variac output meter.<\/p>\n

This application note will describe a simple retrofit of a digital panel meter<\/a> to replace the stock analog meter.<\/span><\/h3>\n

The PM628 digital panel meter<\/a> was chosen due to its low-cost, ease of interfacing, and small size. This particular meter is almost identical in size and shape to the analog meter supplied with the Variac<\/a>.<\/p>\n

The PM628, like all generic DPMs, has a 200 mV full scale reading, so the appropriate scaling resistors are required to display RMS voltage of the AC power. In addition to the voltage divider resistors, a simple half wave bridge rectifier<\/a> must be added to convert the AC voltage into DC which can be read by the DPM.<\/p>\n

A low cost 1N4004 rectifier diode<\/a> was inserted in series with the AC voltage and the voltage divider resistors.<\/h3>\n

Since the DPM contains electronic circuitry, it requires a source of DC power for its operation. A wide range of options exist so it was easy to find a suitable AC\/DC converter module<\/a> that would power the DPM<\/a> and not take up too much space in the Variac enclosure.<\/p>\n

The calculation of the scaling resistors was a little more complex than applications for a DC source because the \u00bd wave rectified output from our single diode produces a rectified equivalent DC voltage equal to the average value; which is 0.45 times rms voltage.<\/p>\n

\"Monitoring<\/p>\n

For 120 VAC this works out to 120 X .45= 54 volts. Since we want the readings in RMS we have to calculate the voltage divider to produce 120 mV with 54 volts applied., Therefore for 120 volt RMS the peak value is 1.414 X RMS or approximately 170 volts. So we will set the voltage dividers to present 120 millivolts to the meter with 54 volts at the input.<\/p>\n

I opted for a 1K shunt resistor<\/a> and calculated the required series value.
\n.120=54(1k\/(1K + Rseries) ) or 1K + Rseries=54K\/.12
\nso Rseries=450K-1k=449K<\/p>\n

So a 449K resistor and a 1N4004 rectifier diode were placed in series with the input lead to the meter and a 1K resistor connected across the meter input. 430K and 18K resistors<\/a> were connected in series with the meter to come as close as possible to the calculated value. Note that the voltage value displayed on the meter can be fine-tuned by adjusting the trimmer potentiometer<\/a> on the back of the DPM.<\/p>\n

\"Monitoring<\/p>\n

The relatively small size and low cost of the required components makes this an easy voltage output upgrade to any of the Circuit Specialists Variacs.<\/h3>\n
