Abstract

In one embodiment, a power supply comprises: a conversion circuit that outputs an output voltage at a first end of a cable; a remote voltage sensor measures a load delivered voltage from a second end of the cable; a control logic, wherein the power conversion circuit regulates the output voltage based on a signal from the control logic; a current sensor that measures current flow through the cable; and a resistance measurement circuit that computes a resistance of the cable as a function of the load delivered voltage, the current flow and the output voltage. The control logic regulates the load delivered voltage based on a voltage drop calculated utilizing the resistance. The control logic detects a change in the resistance of the cable based on the load delivered voltage and dynamically updates a value of the resistance for calculating the voltage drop when the change exceeds a tolerance.
