Hi,
I intend to use a 5V source battery going thru a DC to DC converter to get
a 12V source. Then this 12v will connect to my diffuse sensor which
operrate at 12V.
The sensor's current consumption maximum is 35mA.
If the output Watt of the DC-DC convertor at the 12v source is 1W, can I
said that the the current is 1/12 = 83mA (P=VI) ?
If the current supply to the sensor is 83mA and the sensor co
nsumption is max 35mA, will it damaged my sensor ? Or should I use less
than 35mA ?
My battery source is 5V,1.3Ah before going thru the convertor.
rgds,
phillip
