Summary
• Full time engineering support now available (Heavner), with part-time Science (Bonnell) and Systems (Harris) support as well for the AEB effort, so design progress is being made.
• Close collaboration with PA design effort (Seitz, Bonnell, Goetz) to keep relevant interfaces (power, signal, noise) consistent.
• Specification of breadboard (BB) AEB complete (1 channel – FGND, BIAS, STUB, SUN_SHIELD, +/- 100-V fixed, +/- 15-V floater).
• AEB BB Design in progress (through Dec 2012):– Parts selection (switching supply drivers, DACs, bias output section
transistors)– Schematic and bill of materials (BB and parallel 3DPlus packaging
effort)

AEB – Power Service Concept
AEB-5
• AEB uses existing switching supply designs (THEMIS, RBSP).
• There will be changes to magnetics to accommodate changes in driver frequencies and SYNC requirements.
• AEB takes regulated, filtered supplies from LNPS and providing following supplies:• ± 100-V supply (bias output
stages).• ± 12-V analog (AEB input stages).• ± 15-V floaters (LF-PA supplies).

AEB Requirements (Dec 2012)
• Preamp signal characteristics– DC voltage level: ± 60Vdc w.r.t. AGND (THEMIS-EFI-BEB)– AC voltage level: ± 10V w.r.t. floating ground (± 13V capability; RBSP-
EFW-PRE)• Floating Ground Driver
– Input: LF Preamp signal– Input filter roll off: 500 Hz (TBR; RBSP-EFW-BEB)– Output voltage level: ± 60Vdc w.r.t. AGND– Floating supply rails: ± 15Vdc (RBSP-EFW-BEB, -PRE)
• Bias, Stub, Shield Drivers– Reference Input: LF Preamp signal– Reference input filter roll off: 500 Hz (TBR; RBSP-EFW-BEB, match
FGND)– Output voltage level: Vref ± 40Vdc (max, programmable) w.r.t. AGND– DAC resolution: 16-bit (TBR; RBSP-EFW-BEB, THEMIS-EFI-BEB)
• Max voltage required: ±100V (THEMIS-EFI-BEB and IDPU-LVPS)
• Noise voltages at Bias, Stub, and Shield outputs consistent with noise floor requirements and predicted coupling to antenna (TBD).

Challenges and Plan for AEB Design Effort
• Adapting existing THEMIS (BEB, LVPS) and RBSP-EFW (PRE) designs for SPP environments, resources, and requirements (all Phase B):– Equally challenging radiation environment than THEMIS or RBSP, but
less mass resources available for shielding:• Compile initial BOM, review against TID and SEE, and re-select parts as
needed.– More functionality (bias control AND power supply) to pack into same
or smaller PWB area, mass and power allocation than THEMIS, RBSP (and MEL values!):
• Prepare initial layout using elements of existing designs to prove fit to PWA area.
• Determine realistic mass and power estimates from elements of existing designs to refine mass and power impact of design options (e.g. 3rd axis measurement).
• Consider and evaluate alternate part types (e.g. SMD rather than through-hole 100-V transistors) to trade change in design against mass/power/thermal benefits.
• Demonstrating DC-LF compatability with MF and HF noise floor requirements:– HF noise floor requirements are one or two orders of magnitude more
strict than THEMIS or RBSP:• Build breadboard channel, including floater and HV supplies using existing
flight spare parts/hardware to allow for noise generation/succeptability testing and prove concept design will meet noise floor requirements at antenna (Phase B/early Phase CD).

• Floating and HV supply mass impact significant – minimum two-axis system is almost twice the mass carried in the proposal MEL!
• Mass estimate needs to be refined with reference to THEMIS 100-V system, rather than RBSP-EFW 225-V system based on design decisions from June 2012.
