Hi,

I am using DROK-200571 power supplies. Can I use 2 of these in parallel if I use blocking diode on the positive output of each supply?  I intend to set the voltage the same on each supply and just share current.

 

Regards,

Alex Greenspan

Hello，

We don’t recommend parallel connection, even though you set the same output voltage. Actual output is not complete the same. With diode, it can prevent backfeed current, however, diode also stop one of output. Actually only one powr supply is working.
