power supply remote sense protection resistor value?

There is often a 100 ohm resistor between the +sense and +ve and between the -sense and -ve outputs of bench power supplies. This protects the output from high voltage if the sense wires are accidentally disconnected. So why are these resistors low…

IC for ultra-low power switching

I've previously used complimentary pairs (eg DMC2990UDJ) to switch ICs on and off. I've attached a schematic which switches a potential divider for battery voltage monitor as an example. Where R7 and R8 are I'd add a sensor instead. I'm now…

Can a high current switching load damage a bench power supply?

I am powering an electronic speed controller (ESC) driving a BLDC from a bench supply capable of supplying 40V at 128A. The maximum load the ESC presents is 42A. The wires from the supply to my setup are about 3 feet long (long!), and thus I added…
