From looking @ the specs I see that the power supply supports load sharing, is there a power sharing wire/pin on the breakout board? Do you have a detailed Diagram of those additional pins on the breakout board? or can you point me to one?
Thanks
It is not connected to a pin on the top side of the breakout board, but it is available where the 25 pin connector connects to the breakout board here:
You could pretty easily solder a wire to it and use it. According to the datasheet it should be pretty simple to enable sharing, you'd just need to connect that pin on all the supplies you're using, although I've never personally done it.:
http://datasheet.octopart.com/PFE1100-12-054RA-Power-One-datasheet-10302859.pdfThe PFE front-ends have an active current share scheme implemented for V1. All the CS current share pins need to be interconnected in order to activate the sharing function. If a supply has an internal fault or is not turned on, it will disconnect its CS pin from the share bus. This will prevent dragging the output down (or up) in such cases. The current share function uses a digital bi-directional data exchange on a recessive bus configuration to transmit and receive current share information. The controller implements a Master/Slave current share function. The power supply providing the largest current among the group is automatically the Master. The other supplies will operate as Slaves and increase their output current to a value close to the Master by slightly increasing their output voltage. The voltage increase is limited to +250 mV. The standby output uses a passive current share method (droop output voltage characteristic).
