Description

DC/DC Step-Down converter capable of converting a continuous input voltage between 6 and 40 volts into a continuous output voltage from 0 to 36 volts, with a maximum current of 2 A. It is possible to store up to 10 parameters (voltage, current) and recall them at any time. It features a 4-digit LED display on which voltage, current, power, and other parameters can be viewed in real time. There are also 4 buttons for setting the output voltage and current, and status LEDs.

Usage

  • Simple:
    After powering the converter, the display will show the output voltage; use the up and down arrow buttons to set the desired output voltage. Pressing โ€œSETโ€ will display the output current; use the up and down arrow buttons to set the desired current, then press the OK button to activate the output or SET to deactivate it or reset the values.
  • Complete (3 functions):
    Procedure: without power, press and hold the โ€œOKโ€ button, then apply power; the display will show โ€œ-0โ€ / โ€œ-1โ€ / โ€œ-2โ€; release the โ€œOKโ€ button when โ€œ-0โ€ is displayed to activate Function 0, โ€œ-1โ€ for Function 1, or โ€œ-2โ€ for Function 2. After releasing the โ€œOKโ€ button, the display will show โ€œโ€“y-โ€ to confirm the function.โ€“ Function 0: after power is applied, the output will be activated automatically.โ€“ Function 1: allows saving (SA) and recalling (LO) the output voltage and current. It has a maximum of 10 memory locations.
    (1) Press the โ€œSETโ€ button to display the voltage, set the desired value, press โ€œSETโ€ to confirm.
    (2) Press the โ€œSETโ€ button to display the current, set the desired value, press โ€œSETโ€ to confirm.
    (3) Press the โ€œSETโ€ button to save to the desired memory location โ€œSA-0โ€, โ€œSA-1โ€, etc., and confirm by pressing โ€œOKโ€.
    (4) Press the โ€œSETโ€ button to recall the value saved in a memory location and press โ€œOKโ€.

    โ€“ Function 2: after activating the output, pressing the OK button will automatically display parameters such as voltage, current, power, etc.
