There’s no where else to ask, plenty of technical questions in here already, ask away
I described the use of these in the OP, but in short the regulators on these drivers use current sense resistors from 1,2 K ohm and up. That’s a handy resistance value, so on one of them I use a 256 step 10K digital potentiometer instead of a fixed resistor which makes it fully adjustable. When it reaches it’s max current I turn on another regulator with fixed current and reset the adjustable one back to lowest current setting. The CN5710 is rated up to 1 amp, the larger CN5711 is rated to 1,5 amps. I’ve also “converted” the 256 step 10K digipot into a 768 step 30K digipot which makes the regulator adjustable from max down to about 0.05 ~ 0.06 amps in 768 steps.
It’s not one regulator covering the full range, it’s several. Fat3 has 3, Slim4 has 4 and this new L4 version has 8 of them. These regulators also have thermal throttling as opposed to thermal shutdown. I tested it and posted it in here on post #39, it works well: Driver giveaway: Constant current 17mm drivers, winners (finally) announced, post #2. - #39 by Mike_C
No boost. Only current regulation.
I have to ask about this. When exactly does the light turn on? As soon as you press the button? Or as soon as you release it? Currently I have short cuts from off and I don’t want the light to cycle through modes when entering the short cuts from off, so I have a very slight delay for multiple press detection. Narsil and Anduril don’t have this delay? Does that mean they don’t have multiple press short cuts from off, or they cycle through the modes when entering these shortcuts?
