G. Visser 7/23/2012 MPOD LV P/N 0MPV.8008LI S/N 1788022 . TROUBLES WITH SPURIOUS “CURRENT LIMIT” IN REMOTE SENSE OPERATION. The first two slides are same as I sent before. Load is 5/3 Ohm resistor, on 100 feet 20AWG cable. Remote sense, ok ≤ 1.9 V. Remote sense, trouble ≥ 1.9 V. ?? !!.

G. Visser 7/23/2012 MPOD LV P/N 0MPV.8008LI S/N 1788022 TROUBLES WITH SPURIOUS “CURRENT LIMIT” IN REMOTE SENSE OPERATION The first two slides are same as I sent before. Load is 5/3 Ohm resistor, on 100 feet 20AWG cable.
Remote sense, ok ≤ 1.9 V Remote sense, trouble ≥ 1.9 V ?? !!
Local sense, both cases as above, setpoint tuned for same load & terminal voltages, all seems to work fine, no spurious current limiting.
Here (next slide) is an illustration of open sense connections oddness. I feel it may be related.
At 1.6V setpoint, it’s misbehaving At 3V setpoint, works as expected
