Project Description

eFuse_Voltmeter is a protection circuit for down stream electronic devices. The initial reason for the device was to protect a Ham radio when adjusting bias of RF mosfets. The fets can hit thermal run-way and destroy traces and themselves.

It can be powered from any DC power source between 5 to 25 volts. Its been test up to 6 amps. At 5 amps the two inline mostfets drop 150millvolts each and the sense resistor drops 81 millvolts. Except for the mosfets it should work at much higher currents. So two the mosfets should be upgraded.

Features:

  1. Reverse power protection.
  2. Adjustable input over voltage input protection
  3. Adjustable over current protection.
  4. Voltage and current monitoring.
  5. Output power control.
  6. Output power disconnected on fault.
  7. Audio alarm on fault.

When an over voltage or an over current event happens the board will disable its output. The fault state is latched until the control buttons is pressed. Apond a fault an audio alarm is also actived and a fault LEDs is lite. The fault value is indicted by its red measurement value and the fault RED led is lite. A fault is cleared by pressing the adjusement button. The output button needs to be press again to reable the boards output.

Project Status

The project is basically complete. Working on improvements.

Questions

How big is the EFuse voltmeter r6 PCB?

It measures 87.6 × 64 mm and has 2 copper layers, 1.6 mm thick.

What parts does the EFuse voltmeter r6 use?

90 parts, built around the 24LC32A/P, BAT43, DMP4047SK3 and MMBT3904. The full list of its parts is on this page, with links to each part's symbol and footprint where PCBKit's library has them.

Where can I download the EFuse voltmeter r6 KiCad files?

From the jerryok826/eFuse_voltmeter repository on GitHub, at the commit this page was made from: the board is Hardware/eFuse_voltmeter_r6.kicad_pcb and its schematic Hardware/eFuse_voltmeter_r6.kicad_sch. PCBKit opens the board in the browser, with nothing to install.

Can I use the EFuse voltmeter r6 design in my own project?

Its repository publishes it under the MIT licence: you may reuse it on that licence's terms (keep the author's notice, and for a copyleft licence share your changes alike).
