1. Introducció
This manual provides detailed instructions for the ASHATA Multi-Channel Switching Power Supply Module, featuring the LM2596 chip. This module is designed to provide stable and accurate voltage outputs for various electronic applications, offering 3.3V, 5V, 12V, and an adjustable (ADJ) output channel. Please read this manual thoroughly before use to ensure proper operation and safety.
2. Informació de seguretat
- Assegureu-vos sempre que el volum d'entradatage is within the specified range (DC 5-40V). Exceeding this range can damage the module.
- Observe correct polarity when connecting input and output power. Incorrect connections can lead to damage.
- Avoid short circuits on the output terminals. While the module has overcurrent protection, prolonged short circuits can cause stress or damage.
- Do not touch the module components while it is powered on, as some parts may become hot.
- Mantingueu el mòdul allunyat de la humitat, la pols i les temperatures extremes.
- This module is intended for use by individuals familiar with electronic components and circuits.
3. Característiques del producte
- 4-Way Multi-Output: Provides four distinct voltage output terminals: 3.3V, 5V, 12V, and an adjustable (ADJ) output.
- Vol d'entrada àmpliatage Rang: Supports a DC input range of 5V to 40V, accommodating various power sources.
- LM2596 Chip: Equipped with four high-performance LM2596 chips for stable and accurate voltagregulació.
- Protecció contra sobreintensitat: Integrated overcurrent protection safeguards the module from potential damage due to excessive current draw.
- Construcció d'alta qualitat: Manufactured from durable materials with precise workmanship for reliable operation.
4. Contingut del paquet
- 1 x ASHATA Multi-Channel Switching Power Supply Module (LM2596)
5. Configuració
Follow these steps to set up your power supply module:
- Identificar els components: Familiarize yourself with the input and output terminals, as well as the adjustable potentiometer.
Figura 1: superior view of the power supply module, highlighting the input and output terminals.
- Connecteu l'alimentació d'entrada: Connect your DC power source (5V-40V) to the input terminals labeled 'INPUT' and 'GND' on the module. Ensure correct polarity.

- Connecteu els dispositius de sortida: Connect your devices requiring 3.3V, 5V, or 12V to the corresponding output terminals. Each output has dedicated terminals for power and ground.
- Adjust ADJ Output (if needed): If using the adjustable output channel, connect a voltmeter to the 'ADJ' output terminals. Use a small screwdriver to carefully turn the blue potentiometer (trimmer) located on the board to set the desired voltage. Turn clockwise to increase voltage, counter-clockwise to decrease.

Once all connections are secure and verified, the module is ready for operation.
6. Instruccions de funcionament
After completing the setup:
- Apply Input Power: Turn on your DC power source connected to the module's input.
- Verifica la sortida: Use a voltmeter to confirm the output voltages (3.3V, 5V, 12V, and ADJ) are correct before connecting sensitive devices.
- Connectar càrrega: Connect your electronic devices to the appropriate output terminals. Ensure the total current draw does not exceed the module's capacity for each channel.
- Monitoritzar el rendiment: Observe the stability of the output voltages during operation. The integrated overcurrent protection will activate if a channel draws excessive current, potentially shutting down that output to prevent damage.
7. Manteniment
To ensure the longevity and optimal performance of your power supply module:
- Neteja: Periodically clean the module with a soft, dry cloth to remove dust. Do not use liquids or abrasive cleaners. Ensure the module is powered off and disconnected from all sources before cleaning.
- Emmagatzematge: When not in use, store the module in a dry, cool environment, away from direct sunlight and corrosive substances.
- Inspecció: Regularly inspect the module for any signs of physical damage, loose connections, or discoloration of components.
8. Solució De Problemes
| Problema | Causa possible | Solució |
|---|---|---|
| Sense sortida voltage | No input power; incorrect input polarity; module damage; overcurrent protection activated. | Check input power source and connections. Verify input polarity. Disconnect load and re-test. If problem persists, module may be damaged. |
| Vol de sortida incorrectatage (ADJ channel) | Potentiometer not set correctly. | Adjust the blue potentiometer with a voltmeter connected to the ADJ output until the desired voltags'arriba a e. |
| Volum de sortidatage drops under load | Load current exceeds channel capacity; input voltage massa baix. | Reduce the load on the affected channel. Ensure input voltage és estable i està dins del rang de 5-40 V. |
| Module becomes excessively hot | Excessive load; insufficient ventilation. | Reduce the load. Ensure adequate airflow around the module. Consider adding a heatsink if operating at high loads continuously. |
