The lab PSU project consists of electronic schematics and software for a basic constant voltage/constant current lab power supply unit. It is a hobby project started by me in March 2013, to put some of the theory I learned about electronics into practice.
The project is still in development, and at the moment is just barely useable!
The PSU's hardware characteristics are:
- Max voltage: 15V, in 5mV steps
- Max current: 3A, in 1mA steps
- Fully linear
- Microcontroller driven
- Quite fool-proof: it should not blow up when used incorrectly
The PSU's software characteristics are:
- Fast (10 Hz) and accurate (15 bit) voltage and current readings
- Manual calibration of ADC
- Auto calibration and non-linearity compensation of DAC
- Error logging and reporting
- Proper software design and documentation
