That looks just like a three-wire resistance thermometer connection.

Yep, and the downside is, any contact resistance in connectors or mismatch in current-delivery
wire resistance does it in. Point-of-load regulation is cheaper (wire has real cost) and
has better latency and bandwidth than digitizing-at-the-source. Is this a motor control,
or heater, or some other milliseconds-don\'t-matter system?

Similar concept, an assumption of equal wire resistances.

It\'s a programmable DC power supply, and the customer has requested
remote sense.

Here\'s the opposite extreme of remote sense:

I remember the early 80s when Atari used to use sense lines to monitor
the power supply output at the game board.

Many smoked card edge connectors later they gave up on the sense lines.
What was happening was the ground connections to the game boards
deteriorated at the same rate as the +DC ones and this confused the
sense(s) so they would allow more current to flow - and toasted the card
edge connectors and the plugs.

We had a lot of problems with ground/common connections on games
designed in the 70s and 80s.

I assume your design allows for this - I was just doing some reminiscing...

Yes, rs can be connected wrong and make a power supply go nuts. The
dual ADC allows us to compare the output and the rs feedback and see
if they make sense.

I\'d prefer fewer ADCs (thinking of these as feedback elements into an op amp-style
regulator) because of their delays. Ideally, just program a reference, and
apply gain to that, with suitable filter caps on the output. MHz power currents
come from the capacitors, kHz power currents come from the amplifier, and
a single ADC can alternate reading the reference and the output; using three
ADCs seems overcomplex. If you just integrate DC errors (P-I-D style)
using the digital stuff, the delay isn\'t an issue.

As for \'make sense\' decisions: overcurrent or overvoltage would usually
not wait for a smart digital chip\'s decision, but do something appropriate
with a protective relay, circuit breaker, fuse... Undervoltage though,
that\'s where a sense wire solution shines (take a millisecond, but get
the value RIGHT before a guy with a meter sees the problem).

Not electronics...

As a kid, I was gifted $60 and spent most of it on pinball. Maybe a nickel
per game. As an adult, played pinball after work, my favorite being
Firepower when quick action flippers came along. Then noticed video games
on the other side of the arcade... After sinking maybe $50 into Asteroids,
played it for hours on one quarter. Then Missile Command. Coincidently,
met an electronics engineer (I had played once in a high school chess
tournament) who recommended separating the fire between the left and the
right screen, left button half way then right button the other half way.
Then could play Missile Command for an hour or two on one quarter. Little
after that.

that\'s where a sense wire solution shines (take a millisecond, but get

The power supply dynamics (voltage regulation, current limiting,
output impedance, slew rates) will be done in an FPGA. The FPGA reads
ADCs and generates PWM into the output fets.

The ADCs are ADUM7703, an isolated delta-sigma thing. It makes
essentially a 1-wire random noisy duty cycle whose average value tells
the input voltage. It needs to be decimated, digitally lowpass
filtered, in the FPGA, and we have choices. We can get 160 KHz
bandwidth at 15 bits effective a/d resolution, or 20 bits at about 50
KHz, both overkill for a power supply. They are $6 each, which isn\'t a
big deal here.

Three ADCs isn\'t complex, it\'s actually simple.

If the customer doesn\'t elect to enable remote sense, they get a free
high-res DVM. Either way they can verify the actual voltage at the
load. They do high-value tests (like blowing blades off jet engines to
test containment) and want to be sure everything works.

I\'ve noticed that some engineers will go to great lengths, and add a
lot of complexity, to save trivial parts cost. Like building a fancy
charge-pump power supply just because they can, instead of buying a $3
dc/dc converter, to cite one fictitious example.

That looks just like a three-wire resistance thermometer connection.

Yep, and the downside is, any contact resistance in connectors or
mismatch in current-delivery wire resistance does it in.
Point-of-load regulation is cheaper (wire has real cost) and has
better latency and bandwidth than digitizing-at-the-source. Is this
a motor control, or heater, or some other milliseconds-don\'t-matter
system?

It\'s a programmable DC power supply, and the customer has requested
remote sense.

Here\'s the opposite extreme of remote sense:

https://www.dropbox.com/s/d3zd779cob33zyg/P941_Rem_Sense_4.jpg?raw=1

That has some nice features.

I remember the early 80s when Atari used to use sense lines to monitor
the power supply output at the game board.

Many smoked card edge connectors later they gave up on the sense lines.
What was happening was the ground connections to the game boards
deteriorated at the same rate as the +DC ones and this confused the
sense(s) so they would allow more current to flow - and toasted the card
edge connectors and the plugs.

We had a lot of problems with ground/common connections on games
designed in the 70s and 80s.

I assume your design allows for this - I was just doing some
reminiscing...

Not electronics...

As a kid, I was gifted $60 and spent most of it on pinball. Maybe a nickel
per game. As an adult, played pinball after work, my favorite being
Firepower when quick action flippers came along. Then noticed video games
on the other side of the arcade... After sinking maybe $50 into Asteroids,
played it for hours on one quarter. Then Missile Command. Coincidently,
met an electronics engineer (I had played once in a high school chess
tournament) who recommended separating the fire between the left and the
right screen, left button half way then right button the other half way.
Then could play Missile Command for an hour or two on one quarter. Little
after that.

Obviously I have nothing to do with that troll now flagging what it sees

Some regulars here like Bozo and Ricksy have encouraged it, and it\'s

He wouldn\'t do it if John Doe weren\'t posting here. Since John Doe posts absolutely nothing of any value at all, we\'d all be very grateful if he went away, along with all the people who feel the need to point out that he is an obnoxious half-wit without having anything else to offer.
