Hi all, maybe a nube question but better be safe than sorry. I made some mistakes when soldering transistors to Placid HD so I had to resolder them. The question - how can I be sure that the current between TP-VIN and TP-CCS is the same as the voltage measured? The thing is that when I measure the current between TP-VIN and TP-CCS (without load) the leds go dim and multimeter shows like 1,5A. And I suspect this is not normal. Maybe I murdered some transistors when resoldering. I'm new in this area and this is my 1st project that's why I'm asking. Edited by user Tuesday, September 25, 2012 6:37:13 PM(UTC)

You would never measure current between those two points, basically what you did was short them. Which is very very bad.
You would measure voltage which by using Ohm's law you can calculate current.

Thanks Russ, that's clear now. Some things have to be learnt by making mistakes. :)
Anyway everything works fine.
