https://devzone.nordicsemi.com/f/nordic-q-a/109545/ppk2-amp-mode-overcurrentHello, I&#39;m starting to use the PPK2 to understand the current consumption of various IOT products. I have a question about what happens in amp mode should a dead short fault occur or other high current demand situation. Should the PPK2 have 2-3a runen-USTelligent Community 13Fri, 31 Jan 2025 04:45:31 GMThttps://devzone.nordicsemi.com/thread/520806?ContentTypeID=1Fri, 31 Jan 2025 04:45:31 GMT137ad170-7792-4731-bb38-c0d22fbe4515:b307ce7d-f739-491e-8492-08604502962corly<p>Hi, this has happened to me as I reversed polarity at a mere 3.7V.&nbsp; I would have expected some current limiting protection, is this not built into the ppk2?<br /><br />If you make ppk3, offer usb configurable current limit.</p><div style="clear:both;"></div>https://devzone.nordicsemi.com/thread/475437?ContentTypeID=1Fri, 22 Mar 2024 14:59:17 GMT137ad170-7792-4731-bb38-c0d22fbe4515:d226146a-e0d3-45a8-a3ef-23243eb9d924tesc<p>Hi,</p> <p><a href="https://infocenter.nordicsemi.com/index.jsp?topic=%2Fug_ppk2%2FUG%2Fppk%2Fppk_max_dut_current.html">Maximum DUT admissible current</a> of the PPK II should not be exceeded. The current measurement capabilities of the PPK II get permanently damaged relatively quickly, if used above the maximum measurement rating. (A matter of seconds.) While the kit may still appear to work in the damaged state, current measurements will be poor.</p> <p>Regards,<br />Terje</p><div style="clear:both;"></div>
