Re: DCC CURRENT & VOLTAGE MEASUREMENTS


 

NCE has an internal supply that reduces the incoming voltage to a track voltage that is adjustable.? If the internal supply were analog than an incoming current meter would be accurate.? It is likely that a switching regulator scheme is used to produce the track voltage.? These supplies are more like constant power devices.? So if the incoming voltage and current were 16 Volts and 5 Amperes and the track voltage was set to 12 Volts than the track current would be 6.7 Amperes.

If your booster's track voltage is adjustable than measuring the input current would not tell you directly what the output current is.
