element14presents shared this video on YouTube. This is a test of your electronics project skills.
No matter what electronics project you're doing, one thing is for sure: you'll need to provide power somehow. It can be anything that connects directly to an electrical outlet, battery, buck converter, linear regulator, etc.
When we think about testing power supplies, the first thing we think about is measuring the output voltage. Another important thing to test is how the power supply behaves under load, whether it's a battery or a buck converter. In this video Milos shows several different ways to accomplish this.
