#dps5005 — Public Fediverse posts

I attend the local #repaircafe to fix #electronic stuff for some time now. Until now, I brought a big pile of boxes with a collection of test equipment I took from my #lab. But: it takes time to set up the desk, the stuff is heavy and bulky, there is limited space and it always ends in a mess of wires and tools. So I got a nice alumnium suitcase used by #Siemens #servicetechniker back in 1997, some #MeanWell power supplies (48V and 24v and 12V), a mains power meter, a DJ gooseneck LED light, a #dps5005 , an electronic load module, a USB C PD and USB A QC truck outlet (24V) with power measurement and a mains outlet. And a circuit breaker. So basically the suitcase will house all power supply and measurements needs, a TS100 soldering iron, portable scope, Multimeter, mini Laptop, quicktest, ESD mat, ... I hope this will make the whole experience less messy and way simpler.

The attached pic shows all the electrical stuff in a "dry test".

In case anyone else is using a #DPS5005 here is my branch with some fixes and a few features I wanted for monitoring https://github.com/jnettlet/rdserialtool

Wanted to do some board workload power comparisons with #phoronix test-suite, but there isn't a straightforward way to do this at the DC input. While the #DPS5005 isn't perfectly accurate it is close enough for my purposes. Adding a modbus tcp interface to #PTS and using #mbusd so the consumption of the USB-serial interface isn't logged on the local host. Not bad for a $50 power logger with configurable voltage output.
