Mała uwaga dla budujących kupiłem tranzystory bc639 i nie działało po dokładnym sprawdzeniu okazało się że tranzystory mają inne wyprowadzenie Pętanie do was panowie czy można podwoić wszystko i zbudować zasilacz w kanałowy i ewentualnie łączyć kanały aby zwiększyć napięcie ? Czy będzie zwarnie przez Arduino jeśli tak jak to rozwiazać
@dominikworkshop6007Ай бұрын
Można zrobić wielokanałowy z możliwością łączenia szeregowo, ale tak jak piszesz, controll board by to zwierał. Rozwiązać to można by było stosując izolator I2C do przetwornika ADC, i mieć połączenie między płytkami tylko przez I2C. (zasilanie ADC też nie może być brane z controll boarda oczywiście)

Thank you! When the voltage on the P-channel MOSFET's gate decreases, it starts conducting, thus increasing the output voltage.

Hello Dominik, great work🎉. I do have a question for you. There is a labeled pin as “OFF” in the schematics. Since this pin is same in every mosfet and controlled by 1 output pin so how do you calibrate each mosfet seperately? Thanks!
@dominikworkshop60073 ай бұрын
Thank you!!! I don't have to calibrate each mosfet seperately. The op-amps ensure that the current is very evenly distributed. I used 4 resistors to sum the voltage on shunts, but it turned out unnecesary (maybe except for when there could be some hardware failure), because the op-amps are so precise, that the voltage on shunts is pretty much identical. Hope I managed to clear this out.

Can resistors R4, R5, R9, R10, R14, R15, R19, R20 be replaced with 0.5ohm resistors?, or can they be replaced with other types of resistors that are easier to find? Thanks sir!
@dominikworkshop60074 ай бұрын
Yes, they can be replaced with 0,5 ohm resistors, but that would mean more power loss on these resistors, unless the maximum current is reduced. They can certainly be replaced with other types of resistor, but I suggest ensuring that they have low thermal coefficient.

Did you use an input trigger? I mean define in defines.hh is wrong. It corresponds to ENCODER_BUTTON and the signal input trigger is connected to pin A7 on the PCB. It's just an analog input. Has it ever been tried? Miroslav
@dominikworkshop60075 ай бұрын
You are right, thank you for pointing it out. I haven't used the input trigger yet, and there is an error in defines.hh, where I defined this pin to pin 3, instead of A7. The two pins I know can work as external interrupts were used for the ENCODER_A and ENCODER_BUTTON signals. I'm not sure if I will be able to configure the A7 input as external interrupt, but in that situation I planned to just check the state of this pin frequently, and act accordingly. I know it's not perfect, but the uC used in this load has some limitations. If I were to make a V2 of this project, I would probably base it on some STM32 uC.

I love these DIY PS. Nice done 👍. A long time ago... 30 years or so... I also made a DIY power supply. I used a motor-controlled variac as the input voltage, to minimise the dissipated power. The voltage across the control transistors is constant (automatically controlled via the motor) so also the dissipated power of the transistors is constant regardless of the output voltage. So in addition, I also had a 4A 0-280VAC, 40A 0-25VAC, 20A 0-50VAC and stabilised 40A 0-25VDC or 20A 0-50 VDC. Made my own current measuring resistor (hand wound resistor) for the sake of the 40A. DC was with adjustable current limit. Now it's in the basement and is nothing more than an anchor... (Oh how heavy that thing is 😂)
@dominikworkshop60075 ай бұрын
Thank you! That sounds like a great solution (ignoring the immense weight I can only imagine it had xD)! I wander how it reacted when the output voltage changed rapidly, especially when it goes up. I guess that the motor-controlled variac didn't adjust very fast (or did it?). I see that this problem would be ocurring especially in the constant current mode, when the load rapidly decreases. Or maybe it's not a big deal and the power supply handled it well?

Very clean! It has the looks of a finished product. It actually looks better than some pre-production devices I have seen, let alone prototypes. Cost conscious choice of components too.Taking into account the limited possibilities of the LCD screen and buttons the user interface seems intuitive and quick in its use. You could add a menu with settings memories and also a constant voltage mode. For protection of both the load and the device under test you could also include overvoltage, overcurrent and overpower monitoring that can switch of the load automatically. Do you plan to add a possibility to manage the load remotely for more complex scenario's? For example with the application Test Controller? How 'fast' is it and how precise is it with very low currents? The use case I think about is simulating devices that have sleep time followed by sudden short wake-ups with peak consumption (think bluetooth, lora, wifi, etc... based sensors, smartwatch, wireless headphones and many more. Would be nice to be able to simulate such a device to test batteries or solar power/charger/battery combinations.
@dominikworkshop60077 ай бұрын
Thank you, that's very nice to hear! There is power motoring that makes sure it stays bellow 300W, and there's also overtemperature protection, that turns the load off if the heastink reaches certain temperature. I didn't plan on adding remote controll for this device, because I don't see a need for that. Maybe I'm wrong? It can switch currents fairly fast, though I haven't recorded any measuremets of that yet. It can go down to around 4mA and I guess it would fit the application of simulating devices that you mentioned. If minimum of 4mA isn't enough, this project could be easily modified to operate with smaller currents. This would of course come at a cost of smaller current range.

The only thing I was trying, was to increase the stability of this design. In simulation I figured out, that replacing the Q1 MOSFET with an PNP BJT improved the stability, though I haven't tested it in real life. For someone that has some experience with electronics I recommend to try this modification and check if the stability improved. In addition to that, I'd like to mention two easy performace improving mods - using some precision voltage references (e.g. TL431) instead of two 7805s. And I don't recommend using a switching converter for the fans, because it introduces some high frequency noise to the output.
