Development of the control elements for the SNAP 1 power conversion system is described. A description of test and prototype hardware and performance data are included. The control package in its final design is a combination of regulator and speed-sensitive feedback which provides satisfactory steady-state operation and serves as a mechanism correction for system disturbances.
