RME DPS-2

The DPS-2 is an exceptional linear power supply unit which, in addition to its outstanding technical data, impresses with its

Features and practical functions. For example, the compact device has

two outputs, each with different filtering. The housing design and front panel of the DPS-2

is based on the ADI-2 series and accommodates RME's innovative circuit design in only half the rack width.

The Linear output is a classic DC output, but is equipped with multi-stage passive and active filters, including a 30,000 kHz filter

including a 30,000 F capacitor bank, a ferrite choke and an active output filter with hybrid voltage regulator

Hybrid voltage regulator.

The second output is based on the filter technology developed by RME. For this purpose, the signal from the

pre-filtered linear output is additionally processed with highly efficient active filters to produce an exceptionally clean

DC output signal with only a few micro-volts of interference. In addition, the output features

Sensor technology that measures and regulates the output voltage directly at the DC plug of the special DC cable supplied

regulated. The result is an extremely low output impedance and load regulation, which ensures a clean output voltage of

Output voltage of +12.0 V at 2.5 A and almost completely eliminates load-dependent voltage drops.

Thanks to the additional use of a two-stage HF mains filter and a DC mains filter on the AC side, the

DPS-2 enables optimum performance without interference noise. The 60 VA audio toroidal transformer also contributes to this with its

additional insulation winding and the magnetic shielding tape guarantees absolutely hum- and noise-free operation in any situation

in any situation.

The ground lift switch can be used to disconnect the earth of the DC output from the earthing contact if required, for example to eliminate ground loops. This does not affect safety, as the earthing contact of the mains cable is still firmly connected to the housing and the earthing terminal. In addition, the DPS-2 has an earthing screw (GND screw terminal) to earth other devices or to use an earthing other than Schuko for the audio power supply. For a quick overview of the most important operating statuses and faults (existing input and output voltage, overload, undervoltage, short circuit), the DPS-2 has a short-circuit indicator,

Short circuit), the DPS-2 has two multi-coloured front LEDs. An AutoDark mode can be activated via a recessed push switch on the front of the device, in which

mode, in which the LEDs only light up when the DPS-2 is switched on and when errors occur.
