How to build a 21st century protection board

So an early version had a whole nano (usb spacing?) Which one has the integrated ATmega328 dip? The SMD version, might be hard on my old hands.

Thx,
MI

I've never had time to get the SMD version completely debugged yet. The through hole versions are working well. There is two versions with Atmega328 DIP. One has solid state relays, one has mechanical.

short circuit protection

Hello jwilhelm
greetings thanks for replying i will try your mosfet relay waiting
for ASSR-V621-002E as in my city some components are hard
to get as i cant make the 21 century protection
so i will try a cheap DC and overload short circuit protection
as you can see these cheap mechanical relays shown on pcb
have to be replaced with your SS relays even tauros ACS712
overload protection works

warm regards
Andrew🙂

Basic idea for rail shutdown

Basic circuit I'm looking at to use for rail shutdown. Probably will design the opamp outputs to take the gates beyond ground by 5-10v for improved turn off. Just an idea, I'm kicking around.

You can drive the rail fets directly with a ASSR-V622-302E. It has a quick off circuit on board and will optically isolate the protection board from the rails. I've done this in my protected supply. It's working perfectly in testing, but hasn't gone into service yet.

Hello jwilhelm

Yes I have thought about that also. Most of my new amp designs, have separate front and OPS rails, something else to consider. Will this be part of your smd redesign? And thanks for the files, got them ok!
