    Just as "i" is the symbol for current and [A] is its unit, 'u' is the symbol for EMF (sic. voltage) and [V] is its unit. It is one of those quantities where people tend to use "u" and "v" interchangeably, but the correct and unambiguous notation would be to use "u" like the manufacturer has used here. To be sure, for DC EMF, the symbol would be a capitalized "U" (again, they've used this correctly). Finally, someone who got it right :) . If you feel like arguing: "But why be so pedantic, and use 'EMF' instead of 'voltage'?" ask yourself this - How much 'amperage' do you charge your LiPo with? gah! "Current" sounds so much nicer...

    It depends. It's the SI-system. As I know USA still use gallons, miles, inches and probably V and E too. At least for some time ago. It's a cool table for SI-parameters for electromagnetism a little donw this wikipage. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Electromagnetism

    Aditya Mehendale why on U.K. Test certification is v denoted as u on ac systems and Uo as measured voltage on the supply characteristics page

    I have no clue if the U.K. test-certification is consistent in its nomenclature. The SI is. They use V as the symbol for electric potential (and not U). As I said earlier, people tend to use it interchangeably. In mainland Europe, for example, the word for this electrical quantity roughly translates to "tension" - not the kind of tension you'd get in a spring, but rather there is a separate word, also used for e.g. social tension, perhaps used similarly to the English "high-tension-cable" (I know that the cable-analogy is bad, since a high tension cable actually refers to its elastic tension.). That being said, any EE would understand what you meant if you consistently used either V or U as a symbol for electric potential. The down-side to using "V" is that the symbol for the unit is exactly the same "V". This makes an (in?)equality like "V = 12V" give me the creeps. In any case, I'd recommend NOT using the symbol E. This is used categorically and universally to denote the electric-field, with a unit volt-per-meter (V/m) [which is the same as newton per coulomb N/C].

    U is symbol for voltage and it is measured in Volts -> U = 5V I is symbol for current and it is measured in Amps -> I = 2A Ohms Law is normally written as U = R * I OVP, OCP, OPP are abbreviation so they use V/C/P instead for symbol used in physics expressions. Be carefully with those protections. Depending on device it may be only hard limit, it may shutdown or clamp input. The last option with no protection on input may ruin your day (although it seems that this meter simply power down). Thanks for review, I was thinking that I get this device and now I know that I want it :)

    just to sort this out with an update. V is the symbol for voltage. ie, 2.5V. when making a calculation U is used because it is the outcome of a voltage/current or whatever calculation. my research has uncovered that the use of "U" is not a direct unit of voltage. The IEEE have confirmed this. I must admit, i didnt know this myself until it came up in the Video. V =voltage. U is used to indicate the result of a calculation in which voltage is one of the constants.

    The answer to your question regarding the Letter U - That's us scot's fault, now adopted across Europe. Traditionally quantity (here voltage) and its unit (volts) are kept separate, which means using different characters for either: current (I) is measured in amperes (A) and resistance (R) is measured in ohms (the upper-case omega). Having V to mean both quantity and unit sort of violates the spirit. So we use U to denote quantity.

    The overvolt protection 'normally' works by clamping the DC input short circuit if overvolt is detected. This might damage the DC supply, but save the DUT. Put a fuse inline with your battery pack please! Note: I suspect that your regulator/PSU may just open circuit the output, guess it is up to you to test.

    Pretty neat device. It would be cool if it would have some data logging, or at least serial output with current voltage and current being drawn. The screen refresh is pretty low, at about 1-2Hz. I assume the protection mechanisms are implemented in software, and not using dac and comparators that triggers something. (other than current limiting I assume), which might be a bit unsafe. It most likely will deliver more current or power for about half a second, than what is set in settings, so still be careful. Any ideas about turnup / turndown behavior, noise, ripple and load regulation.

    U is the letter used in physics for energy potential which is relative to some other potential, this difference is measured in Volts which is derived from the potential energy needed to move charge based on Newtons as a measure of power and so on. In English U is voltage and measured in V which is volts which makes the definitions muddy. In other languages these are sometimes separated by calling U for example potential or something else which is measured in volts (V). You can't increase volt (V) no more than you can increase a meter but you can increase voltage (U) just as you can increase distance which is then measured in V, it's a fairly subtle difference but an important one.

    I bought one of these not long ago and use it all the time. I only wish when you push the button to change voltage or current that it would stay in the change mode until I push the button again to end or even better, have an option in the settings to have it work that way or the default way which is automatically exit the change mode after 10 or 15 seconds or no input. When I am experimenting and want to play with voltage and/or current it is annoying to have it exit change mode by itself so I have to push the volt or current button again then push the knob two or three times to get to the digit I want to change... wash, rinse, repeat.... Also, interesting that the manual calls it the coding potentiometer since, as you mentioned, it is not a potentiometer but then no surprise from a translated document.

    my power supply is rated for 240w, 24v at 10a. I actually need 48v at 5a. will this work? or will the voltage be limited to the power supply's voltage?

    This is a step-down only (buck) converter. As it says in the product description the input must be 1V higher than the output. If you are going to run it for long periods of time, I would be inclined to get one that is not cutting it so fine regarding the power limits. This one is rated to 250W so I think your 48x5 would be pushing it pretty hard.

    2:00 the input voltage is 6-55V but there is no indication of an input current. Does it even matter because it will draw as much current as needed? And also, what should the min. input current be? btw. great video. EDIT: I researched a bit and as I thought, it depends on how much current you use and there's is a way to calculate it if you know the efficiency.

    The problem with this unit is simply that it is really involved to set the parameters for a data set, then saving. The instructions are very poorly laid out so initially at least it's quite demanding. The instructions (for example) refer to a potentiometer not the rotary encoder which it is. Ideally this should couple via SW to a PC & enable much faster & more reliable programming.

    Texas Ace If you put it in a case, you can easily wire a switch in the output that would change between diode and non diode output. It wouldn't take much effort to make that work.

    Thats a good ideal, had no thought of a switch. I ended up just putting 2 sets of power jacks on it, 1 directly connected and the other run through the diode. Figured that having 2 outputs would not be the worst thing around anyways. Although for some reason I forgot that it is only a buck supply, so now I am on the hunt for a higher voltage power supply instead of an ATX PS. Think the best I have found is a 48v / A supply for $25ish, or since I doubt I will need that much power I might just go with the 3A version for $15. Still should come out to around $50 all said and done for a 50v/5A adjustable power supply, not bad at all.

    J IJzer I received my electrical engineering degree in the 80’s and we were taught E=I x R. .E = voltage or electromotive force. They eventually changed to V. New engineers i meet in the field use V., but i still use E. I have personally never heard U used. I have worked with Engineers all over the world, but never heard them use U for Voltage. New to me. I’m not denying it, i have just never heard of it.

This is ohm's law I always hated that formula and always wrote it down as W=VxA and got in a couple of arguments with my teacher. more than 10 years later, I saw that teacher in a supermarket, and he still remembered me. He told me I was one of the few students that actually cared about what he was teaching. And that he mist the arguments in class after I drop his course and went on with metalworking the next year. I stilt think of that teacher every time I use ohm's law

    Probably a dumb question but I’ll ask it anyway. I have a solar panel with variable output, that I want to use to power a device that has a minimum requirement, and gets fussy if it gets less than what it needs. Could I use this device to set output parameters for my device, so that it never receives less than 8V or less than 1A? If the solar panel can’t meet either of those requirements because of the light levels I’d like this controller to just switch off the output and wait until those levels can be met. Is that possible???

  • @iforce2d

    It doesn't really sound like a suitable thing for that purpose. No ability to get it to switch off at a certain input voltage at least. Usually things using solar will have a battery between them as a buffer, which the solar can charge when sunny, and the end-user device can still use when not sunny. Only problem is, you then need a circuit between the solar panel and battery so that the battery doesn't simply try to 'power' the panel when not sunny... I've never tried it myself but I have seen that it's not trivial.
