Power Supply Selection for MNB Configuration 1, 2 and 3
The power required from the 5 V DC supply for the bias circuit is extremely small (approximately 5 mA) so just about any small isolated 5 V DC supply will have more than necessary power rating. A low noise power supply with an output isolated from local ground is recommended to minimize the injection of differential noise onto the bus.

Frequently, the most convenient power source for the 5 V DC bias supply will be the 24 V AC typically powering the various RS-485 device products. A couple options for the 24 V AC to Isolated 5 V DC power supply would include the models PS-200-3-A-3-L and PS-200-3-A-3-N from Mamac Systems and the model DCP-524 from Kele. Another isolated 5 V supply option with a smaller package/footprint and lower cost would be the combination of the Altronix model VR1TM5 regulator and the small (20 VA) Veris Industries X020ADA 24 V AC to 24 V AC isolation transformer. The figure below shows the Veris/Altronix configuration.
The 1000 ohm resistors shown in the figure above represent the application in Configuration 1 or Configuration 2 showing dual end-point bias. Para mais informações, consulte MNB Configuration 1: Dual End-point Bias (MNB Source) .Para mais informações, consulte MNB Configuration 2: Dual End-point Bias (External Supply Source) . For single mid-point biasing such as configuration 3, the values would be 510 ohm. Para mais informações, consulte MNB Configuration 3: Mid-point Bias .
Other manufacturers/models of 24VAC/24VAC isolation transformers can be substituted to accommodate preferred package, size, local availability, and approvals.
If the use of 115/230 V AC line voltage for the + 5 V DC supply is preferred, the Veris X020ADA transformer can be replaced with a common 115 V/24 V or 230 V/24 V transformer. This can be a separate transformer of the same type used to power the 24 V AC devices. However, the transformer size used for this application can be as small as you have available. In this application, the VR1TM5 presents a load of less than 1 VA. The transformer output used to power the VR1TM5 should not be connected to any other device.
