The Vicor P048F048T24AL-CC Constant Current Demonstration Board User Guide explains setup, features, test procedures, safety precautions and specifications…
This user guide describes the Constant Current (CC) Demonstration Board, which shows how to use a Vicor PRM regulator as a constant‑current source. The board is intended for laboratory evaluation and LED driving demonstrations, not for end‑user equipment installation. It outlines safety practices, wiring, and the required equipment for proper operation.
Key components include a high‑power‑density PRM, adjustable current output (5 A alone, up to 100 A with a VTM), Kelvin test points, fused input, and optional heat‑sink mounting. The guide provides detailed test procedures, wiring diagrams, and a full bill of material for building and evaluating the board.
| Maximum current (no VTM) | 5 A |
|---|---|
| Maximum current (with VTM) | 100 A |
| Maximum output voltage | 55 V |
| Input fuse rating | 10 A |
| Input capacitor value | 22 µF |
The board can deliver up to 5 A of constant current when no VTM is used.
Never replace the fuse with a jumper; always use a fuse of the same type and rating.
