NEPTUNE Low Voltage Requirements
• SPE1
Average and peak power delivery to the Node Science
Connectors for a particular node shall not be less than
3.3 kW and 9.3 kW, respectively.
• SPE3
Power delivery to the user shall be at two voltage
levels: 48VDC and 400VDC.
• SPE4
1.3 kW of 48VDC power shall be available to the
Node Science Connectors at each node.
Note: Assumes 700W internal load
Power System Specifications
• Each 400V user circuit shall have a maximum current capacity of
23A (9300 W) that shall be available at any or all science connectors
• Each 48V user circuit shall have a maximum current capacity of 27 A
(1300 W) ) that shall be available at any or all science connectors
• The Power System must be able to detect a ground fault of <100 µA
on any of the science connector power conductors and to isolate
that conductor from the internal power circuit.
• All external circuits shall have a deadface switch that will provide
galvanic isolation in the event of a ground fault.
Power System Specifications (cont’d)
• The Power System shall have an interface to the Observatory
Control System (OCS) which would allow users to define and
schedule power settings such as power cycling, changes in power
requirements, etc.
• The Power System must be able to detect a over-current fault on
any of the science connector power circuits and disconnecting the
faulted circuit. The current limit will be set by the user through the
OCS.
• The Power System shall be capable of monitoring the total load
requests for both of the output voltages and controlling the power to
the loads so as not to exceed the Power System operating limits.
• All circuits providing power to external loads will have isolation from
each other, seawater and all internal circuits.

Controller requires 5V, +/-12V
Relay control inputs require +12V
Current sensors require +/- 12V
Isolation amps require +/- 12V
DCS components require +12V
Need to confirm all voltage and power requirements
LV Converter PCB will use COTS/MIL level converter
modules
• Design will include 100% redundancy, minimize possibility
of single point failures
COTS/MIL Level DC-DC Converters
• High MTBF
• MIL Qualification
• Environmental Stress

8 science connectors (4 for MARS)
400V, max I = 23 A (9300 W)
48V, max I = 27 A (1300 W)
Max current available at any single connector or the total
of all connectors - typical current is much lower
• Need power switching and current monitoring for both
voltages on all connectors
• Need to monitor ground fault current on both power
busses
• Need deadface relay on both legs for galvanic fault
isolation
External Load Control & Monitoring
• 8 Science Connectors
• ROV/Underwater
Mateable
• Rated for 3000V/30A
• ~10 conductors
2 - 400V
2 - 48V
4 - Ethernet
2 - Time Distribution
External Load Control & Monitoring
• Solid state MOSFET switch
– can interrupt DC current
– non-zero off-state leakage – if cable cut, small fault
current could result
– non-zero on-state resistance – results in device
heating
External Load Control & Monitoring
• Mechanical relay
– provides complete galvanic isolation
– has near-zero on-state resistance
– cannot interrupt DC current without arcing and
damage to switch

Science Connector
External Load Control & Monitoring
• Mechanical/Solid State Hybrid
– Solid state switch to make/break current
– Mechanical relay to provide galvanic “deadface”
isolation in case of faulted instrument
External Load Control & Monitoring
• Heating problem with MOSFETs can be reduced by:
– Paralleling devices
• 600V relay has RDS(on) of 0.13Ω
• With single device
I = 25A, PD = (25)2 * 0.13 = 81W
• With 4 paralleled devices
I = 25/4 A, PD = (6.25)2 * 0.4 = 5W
– Operating the devices in liquid (Fluorinert)

External Load Control & Monitoring
• Paralleling MOSFETS requires good current sharing
• Need to select parts with similar RDS(on) and good PCB
design
• RDS(on) goes up with temperature so there is some
inherent current balancing
External Load Control & Monitoring
• NEPTUNE long life requirement
may require hermetically sealed
components
• International Rectifier has
proposed a module with:
– 6 paralleled Hi-rel MOSFETS
in hermetically sealed case
– Entire die from single wafer
– Good matching of key
parameters
– Less expensive than discretes
in quantities of 100’s
Internal Load Control
• Provide 12V & 48V power switching to internal loads
– Optical transport equipment
– Data Communications Network equipment
– Controller
– Time Distribution equipment
– Engineering sensors
– Power System electronics and sensors
Internal Load Control
• Do not need isolation or deadface relays
• Maximum current through any device:
– Optical Equipment = 48W @ 73W = 1.5A
– DCS Router = 12V @ 165W = 13.8A
• Switching can be accomplished with single MOSFET
devices

Over-current Protection
• Controller would have maximum current setting from
Observatory Control System
• Over-current trip point can vary – lights or pump may
turn on in response to an event
• Controller monitors current and opens switch if overcurrent trip point exceeded
Ground Fault Monitoring
• Difficult to protect individual user circuits if they all
connect to 400V or 48V bus
• Differential ground fault monitoring only sensitive to
~10mA
• Most reasonable option for high sensitivity is to monitor
bus potentials relative to seawater
• If fault is detected, need to cycle power off to all loads to
find faulted circuit
• Users need to know about this potential load
disconnection – may need to provide their own batteries
