Majority of the BLM detector types require voltage biasing up to 2000VDC with the possibility to generate voltage modulation patterns to verify the connection chain of the detectors to the front-ends. Currently, the power supply solution consists of COTS large format power supplies with additional custom electronics and various interconnections to provide monitoring and remote control. For this reason, a market search has been done to identify a high reliability module suitable for dedicated BLM installations composed by a few detectors. The outcome of the market search has justified the need to design a low cost custom board, compatible with the CERN infrastructure and different detector types, as well as allow easy customization to cover various installation architectures and voltage range needs. Main characteristics could be summarized with the following points: completely remote controlled and autonomous system, common hardware for different applications, only need to change DC\DC converter.
