How to use remote sensing in series/parallel connection?

A remote sensing function can be used even if the power supplies are connected in series or parallel. Please refer to the following for wiring of the remote sensing. Also, please install capacitors between the sensing line (+S and -S) and the output line (+V and -V) if output voltage gets unstable.

1. Series operation

The wiring of the remote sensing depends on the kind of the load when the power supplies are used in the series operation.

  1. Series operation with no center point (used as single output)
    Using only remote sensing terminal connecting to the load. Please refer to Fig. 1.1.
  2. Series operation with center point (used as dual output)
    Connecting the remote sensing terminals to each loads that connect to each power supplies. Please refer to Fig. 1.2.

2. Parallel operation

The power supply must have the parallel operation function in the case of the parallel operation. Only sensing terminal of the master unit connects to the load. Please refer to Fig. 2.1.
