      If you plug the power supply the wrong way it is very likely that you may have burned the driver chip😔

    • @zerotoheroengineering
      @zerotoheroengineering 4 місяці тому

      That is a weird behavior. Are you sure you connected everything properly? Can your power supply provide enough current?

  • @ckat609
    @ckat609 Рік тому

    Noob here... does this mean that, by setting the imax value with the potentiometer it won't matter how many amps te power supply is sending? Also... is it normal for the driver and motor to get too hot to touch longer than a couple of seconds?

    • @zerotoheroengineering
      @zerotoheroengineering 4 місяці тому

      By setting the maximum current, the driver will draw that for the power supply as long as the power supply has enough power to provide it. Depending on the current setting, it is normal that the motor and driver get hot. That is why in some cases it is recommended to use heatsinks and/or cooling fans

    Thank you for the concise presentation of this important subject 👍🙂 I'm currently in the process of organising my electronics hardware and I'm using Method 1 (storage boxes) for small parts, and plastic lunch boxes for the the larger parts (switches and knobs). I'll probably use Method 2 (parts cabinet) for the electronic components, as space is limited.

    @donovannewton9507 2 роки тому

    So my question is, why did you select a 12v 180w power supply? I’ve been trying to find out or understand what the minimum power is required. Can I use 12v with 74W or can I also use 24v @144W? I have been unable to find out how I can possibly use higher voltage power, and how to go about it.

    • @zerotoheroengineering
      @zerotoheroengineering 4 місяці тому

      I used that because that is what I had around. It is the type of power supply that is also used in 3D printers. For setting the Vref you can use a very low power power supply because almost no current is drawn during the process.

    • @zerotoheroengineering
      @zerotoheroengineering 4 місяці тому

      That formula is only true for a specific value of the sensing resistor. There are boards with different resistors as I mentioned in the video and the value of the sensing resistor must be taken into account

    How would I go about this if my power source doesn't have a positive and negative voltage section like yours does (just one cable for the entire power source)?

    • @zerotoheroengineering
      @zerotoheroengineering 2 роки тому

      If it just has one cable coming from the power source you'll have to strip the insulation of the tip of the cable and there you will find two conductors. They can be two separate wires or one of them can be isolated and the other not. If this is the case, the one that has insulation is usually the positive and the other is the negative. However, the best to do is to test them using the multimeter.

Lol i was thanking you and probably got the word messed up lol I got mine from China too but they've went way up in price in China. I paid like 110cad. Great meter the probes are no different than any of the probemasters I have. I actually mailed a set to a youtuber in new Zealand. When I ordered them I didn't realize that they were just the probes but they retracted way too easy. I got a new set with all the different parts for Xmas and they send them in a giant case like a good ratchet set would be in but no one keeps their probes in the case. There's a set on Amazon from a company called bionzo for like 50 dollars that I already had. If not for the soft wire on the pm there's no difference in quality.
