    Default Voltage regulation circuit 12V to 5V in 5A range

    EDIT: Figured I'd concentrate my power supply circuit here instead of my MSFS thread.

    -----------------------------------------------------------------------------

    Figures that I would hit a roadblock after wiring an ammeter to be able to see current and voltage in real-time. That DC-DC converter under the meters has too much noise on VDD and VSS for stable ADC readings.

    I made a 7805 circuit for testing, but it's only rated for 1.5A.

    I wish I had seen the LM1084 before; it can handle 5V up to 5A, more than enough for my design. At least it's a piece of cake wiring a through-hole LM1084 with some caps instead of the DC-DC converter.

    My Creality Ender 3 S1 Plus is a giant paperweight that can't even be used as a boat anchor, cause I'd be fined for polluting our waterways with electronic devices.

    Not as dumb as yesterday, but stupider than tomorrow!
