3. Schematic 1- Initial data for PCB module design

4. First of all some words about the working principle of the circuit. First of all some words about the working principle of the circuit. The schematics from fig. 2 will not be used, but it suggests a required intervention in the existing power supply. The schematics from fig. 2 will not be used, but it suggests a required intervention in the existing power supply. The main change is the insertion of the series (shunt) resistor R6. The main change is the insertion of the series (shunt) resistor R6. The connection of the module with the power supply will be assured by the connector pins A-F. The connection of the module with the power supply will be assured by the connector pins A-F.

5. Working principle (continued) The switch between the U/I display mode is done by the DPDT (Double Pole Double Throw) switch S1 (not included in our PCB). The switch between the U/I display mode is done by the DPDT (Double Pole Double Throw) switch S1 (not included in our PCB). For voltage measurement the voltage applied to IC1 is divided by the group R1-P4 in a quotient 1:100. The decimal point of LD3 and the LED “V” are lit on, the display resolution is 0,1 V. For voltage measurement the voltage applied to IC1 is divided by the group R1-P4 in a quotient 1:100. The decimal point of LD3 and the LED “V” are lit on, the display resolution is 0,1 V. For current measurement the voltage drop at R6, is applied directly at HI-LO terminals of the DAC circuit IC1. In this case there are two possible scale connections (a) - 0  9,99 A or connection (b)- 0  0,999 A. In these cases the shunt resistor must have the values 0.1 , respectively 1 .

6. Demonstration of design flow in OrCAD First of any CAD activity we must find the answer to some questions: How the case (housing) will look like? How the circuit is powered? How many PCBs will be necessary? How many layers will have the PCB? How many connectors we will use? We will use SMD or THT components? Etc. To answer to some of the questions we must see the CAD project as part of a construction project.
