Unlike a simple linear regulator, the ZK-5KX can efficiently step down a higher input voltage to a lower output or step up a lower voltage to a higher output, making it incredibly flexible. This manual provides all the key information you need to get started and unlock the full potential of the ZK-5KX.
One of the most popular uses for the ZK-5KX is as the core of a DIY variable benchtop power supply. By housing the module in a custom enclosure, you can create a professional-grade lab supply at a fraction of the cost. Zk-5kx Manual
The ZK-5KX has several adjustable software-based protections to safeguard your projects: Unlike a simple linear regulator, the ZK-5KX can
The is a highly versatile, programmable CNC power supply module capable of stepping up or stepping down input voltages dynamically. Delivering an adjustable output range of 0.6V to 36V at up to 5A with a maximum power ceiling of 80W , it serves as an excellent foundation for a custom lab bench power supply, battery charger, or LED driver. By housing the module in a custom enclosure,
Short-press U/I twice to save and exit, or let the screen sit idle for 10 seconds to auto-save. Setting Current Limits (CC Mode)
Input threshold protection (Adjustment range: 4.8V–30V, default 5.8V). Unit cuts output if input sags below this. Over-Voltage Protection
Here is a list of key programmable protections:
