Voltage Converter (DC-DC Power Supply)

This is a highly efficient voltage converter power supply. Provides you with the precise voltage that you need for your project and testing purpose.

Providing you with your desired output voltage power from any DC voltage source for exmple, battery, power supply, power bank.

Small and light weight. Suitable for portable on-site or indoor desktop use.

Features

  • Adjustable output voltage from 0Vdc to 50Vdc (up to 5A, 250W)
  • Can set current limit output.
  • Precision output settings.
  • DC barrel socket or pluggable terminal connection for input/output source.
  • Accept input from 6Vdc to 55Vdc.
  • Memory settings
  • Multiple display mode for voltage, current, power, energy and real time graphical graph.

Step down, step up Converter

This voltage converter allows a wide range of input voltage power supply from 6Vdc to 55Vdc.

You can adjust the output voltage with the user turn-knob. This voltage converter power supply will step-down or step-up to your desired output.

Power Supply Input/Output

Accept wide input voltage from 6Vdc to 55Vdc.

Adjustable output voltage 0Vdc to 50Vdc, and current limit up to 5A.

High power supply with total power output up to 250W.

It is easy to connect to this converter.

You can power up this unit (Vin) through a DC barrel jack connector (OD 5.5, ID 2.1mm), or bare wire through the pluggable screw terminal connector. (the connector on the left side)

You can tap the converted voltage power (Vout) from the same connector type. (the connector on the right side)

Power Display Mode

You can access the display mode by turning the user turn-knob.

Display mode available

  • Voltage and current display
  • Power and wattage display
  • Real time voltage/current graph display
Voltage Converter Display Mode (DC-DC Power Supply)

Operating Instruction

  1. Power up the voltage converter with external DC power supply.
  2. Set the output voltage. Select the button <V>. Press down the knob click to select the number position that you want to change. Turn the knob to adjust the voltage value.
  3. Set the output current limit. Select the button <A>. Similar to step 2, use the knob to adjust the current limit.
    Setting current limit ensure that the output current will not be more than what you have set.
  4. Press the On/off button (below the turn-knob) to switched on the output supply.

Uninstall Hidden USB drivers from Device Manager

Very often when using a USB to RS232 device for hardware troubleshooting, a virtual com port number will be generated. If the device is removed and plugged to another USB port, Windows will install another set of drivers for the USB device, resulting in a new com port number assigned. Over along period of time, you may have a lot of unwanted drivers installed with you realising. This is because they are all hidden inside the Device Manager.

Remove Device Driver Manually

To get rid of unwanted drivers manually, devices, or services, use the following steps:

  1. Open the Start menu and choose Run.
  2. Type in “cmd“, right click the cmd terminal icon and right click “Run as administrator“.
  3. At the command prompt, type in “set devmgr_show_nonpresent_devices=1” and press Enter. (Note that nothing seems to happen. This is expected. You are actually setting an environment variable which is going to help you to see hidden devices.)
  4. On the next command prompt line, type “devmgmt.msc” and press Enter. This will launch the Windows Device Manager Console.
  5. In the Device Manager Console, from the View menu, select Show Hidden Devices.

Software Tool to help remove unused device driver

This software do the same as above. A faster way to remove a list of hidden devices that are not in use.

DeviceCleanup

General purpose program to clean up devices in the Device Manager.

Click here to download “DeviceCleanup.zip“

  1. Open the zip file (or unzip the zip file)
  2. Go to folder “x64“
  3. Execute the file “DeviceCleanup.exe“.
  4. The title of the program may display “Device Cleanup Tool V1.1.0 [Restricted]“
  5. Go to the program menu “File” and click on Restart ‘As Administrator’
  6. The wording “[Restricted]” will be disappear from the program title bar.
  7. Select the hidden devices on the list. You can select multiple devices.
  8. Right click for the context menu and click on Remove Device.

ComNameArbiterTool

Specialised program to clean up Virtual COM port devices in the Device Manager.

Click here to download “ComNameArbiterTool.zip“

  1. Open the zip file (or unzip the zip file)
  2. Go to folder “x64“
  3. Execute the file “ComNameArbiterTool.exe“.
  4. The title of the program may display “COM Name Arbiter Tool V1.0.1 [Restricted]“
  5. Go to the program menu “File” and click on Restart ‘As Administrator’
  6. The wording “[Restricted]” will be disappear from the program title bar.
  7. Select the COM port on the list. You can select multiple COM ports.
  8. Right click for the context menu and click on Remove Device.

I2C Communication

I2C Physical Signal

I2C Lockup

I2C can get lockup and hang the whole I2C bus due to communication error. This is due to noise or incorrect signalling resulting in slave waiting for clock cycle, when the master already finish its clocking. The following are some of the common reasons for the communication error.

  • Too much capacitance on the bus.
  • Communication speed too high.

It is important to also program your codes to handle possible bus hang. You can clock out at least 10 clock cycle to clear the bus.

Solution

A common problem is that the pull up resistor on the bus is too low. This results in a slow slew rate. The digital signal is not sharp enough. Use a 1Kohm pull up resistor for both the SDA and SCK. It is the most common design problem I have encounter. I always put a pullup resistor value too high. 3.3Kohm can be too high.

Hand Gesture Command Control

This board feature a RGB Infrared IR gesture sensor and motion direction recognition module.

The chip used is GY-9960-3.3 APDS-9960, interface via I2C

This module allows using of hand gesture to command and control devices without touching any physical user interact control panel.
