Dear all

I'm trying to use 2x KIT-CRD-CIL12N-FMA to build a full bridge inverter. Are the PCB able to handle 30A current?

Thank you for your answer

    Hello wybcityu,

    Yes, the KIT-CRD-CIL12N-FMA PCB can support 30A based on copper widths, socket quantity, and module ampacity on the PCB in a standard benchtop environment.

    Thanks,

    Brett

    Hello wybcityu,

    One additional note, you will NOT be able to use the CVR that is provided with the kit for continuous operation, as it will be too much energy for the CVR. It can be replaced with an appropriately sized bolt, 2x washers, and a nut.

    Thanks,

    Brett
