One of our clients ... claimed that for safety reasons, sink outputs was no go.
Is that right or is it pure bullshit? If it's right, they should be able to cite the specific reasons for it. In this country, a lot is blamed on "Health and Safety" which really has nothing to do with it! As a generic statement, it sounds unlikely to me - but, perhaps they are actually talking about some specific type of sourcing output versus some specific type of sinking output? I guess a sourcing output would be power and/or current limited by the power supply, whereas a sinking output might not...? If that's the case, then you just need to ensure that the sinking output meets the required power/current/energy/whatever limiting specification... |
