J&D Tech PowerViser is a power supply and voltage/current monitor for developing battery-powered and low-power products. It supplies the target from 2 to 9 V, measures current on a high-current path up to 5.1 A and a low-current path up to 320 mA, and shows live graphs with minimum, maximum and average values on a Windows PC or an Android phone over USB or Bluetooth. Pertech, a J&D Tech representative, sells and ships it worldwide.

Frequently asked questions
What is PowerViser?
PowerViser is J&D Tech’s power supply and voltage/current monitor for development boards. It powers the target and records its voltage and current so you can optimize power consumption.
What current ranges does it measure?
Two paths: high current from 0 to 5.1 A at 156.25 uA resolution, and low current from 0 to 320 mA at 10 uA resolution. Voltage is set and measured from 2 to 9 V at 1.25 mV resolution.
Can I monitor from a phone?
Yes. Besides the Windows software, PowerViser has a dedicated Android app connected over Bluetooth, with the same settings as the PC software.
Can it protect my board?
Yes. You can set current limits on the main and USB outputs to cut power when the current goes out of range.
