Hello and thanks for your reply!
If it is true constant current, yes, however in practice it may not give constant current over its whole output voltage range.
Seems like i will have to do some (potentially destructive) testing.
I have addet INA226 to log the voltage and drawn current from the connected devices to an SD card.
Since the INA226 has a programable latching alert output i will wire a relay in series and have the output disconnect in case of over current.
That should help a bit in case things go wrong.
Edit: See the attachment of the module in question, the INA226 PCB is not my proudest work...
e.g. a LED flyback boost driver would give CC as long as Vout>Vin, but below that, Vin would be connected to Vout vis the inductor and diode
That makes sense, thank you!
On a side note, i love your videos, been watching them for quite some time now! Thank you!
Most likely it is specified as non-short-circuit protected because if you for example set the output to 30v and set the CC limit to maximum, short circuiting it will destroy it. So, in this case it wouldn't be short-circuit protected.
Thanks, i will wire it up and see what will happen with a suitable resistive load. It is not that cheap (20 bucks) but i guess i will have to do some destuctive testing.
Greetings,
Peter
