Just to let you know: if one day you have to use the LM337 negative voltage regulator, protect everything with TVS or Zeners. This is the most failing component I've ever seen (and I'm not the only...
You haven't provided any context, so there is little to say about this particular design. For all we know from what you told us, this could be homework from a student that just made a mistake. How...
I always had trouble understanding the terms "digital" and "analog" A digital signal is intended to indicate one of a finite set of discrete states. The number of discrete states is usually two fo...
I don't think there is a simple way to inherently limit the current to 10 A. The best approach seems to me to add a low side current sensor between the bottom of the H bridge and ground. The main...
Around the 19 min mark in the video (approximately, found with hovering the cursor over the timeline) you'll see that different capacitors have different values of both capacitances and parasitics,...
I am calculating the base current of transistor Q1. To simplify the circuit equations, I applied the Thévenin's theorem twice and converted V1, R1 and R2 into Vth and Rth, as shown in the image. ...
I see that Monica answered your question directly. However, there is another point to keep in mind. Comments are not for content. That was supposedly the case at SE too, but was poorly enforced....
If all four channels are really connected to the same signal in the pictures you show, then there is indeed some skew between pairs of channels. Try swapping probes to see if the lag goes with the...
My goal is to make an RC car, and I have a couple of questions regarding driving the brushed DC motor. Schematic for half of my H-bridge looks like this for now (it will be identical on the other s...
Yes, you seem to understand the concept. From the case to the ambient air, there will be 1.3°C per watt across the pad, and another 2.0°C per watt across the heatsink. In total, there will be 3.3...
Every time I visit Codicact I miss the comment voting feature. There is no way to know if some comment is rubbish or a gem because the opinions of others are hidden from future visitors. I wish t...
You should not be relying on the internal circuitry of whatever senses the 4-20 mA current. Note that the two implementations you show both use current sense resistors. The only difference is the...
Homework problem A MOSFET has a power dissipation of $P_{d} = 10\text{W}$. The MOSFET is mounted on a heatsink. There is an isolation pad between the MOSFET case and the heatsink. We are given t...
I posted a post containing C code in the Papers category here, using the ```c formatting which works elsewhere on Codidact. The code does not get formatted with color coding, though it gets fixed ...
Code highlighting, like Mathjax, incurs a small penalty on page rendering, so we don't turn it on by default. The question hadn't come up before on EE, so it was off. I've just turned it on.
The usual culprits would rather be the ground clip itself or accidentally shorting something with it, more so than ESD. And if something has actually broken on the scope, I'd suspect the probe to b...
Summary "Outdated" should be used for "this won't work anymore today", not "we would do this differently today". Detail "Outdated" should be reserved for when an answer is wrong or misleading be...
Hi guys,I'm designing a multiple output flyback converter with 2 outputs at 10v@1 Amp and 5v @ 2 Amps .Input is 20 V dc Im having some problem with the implementation of closed loop. Open loop res...
Someone just created the tags 208VAC and 230VAC. If think we need to create a policy about tag usage related to supply voltages. Clearly, stating the supply voltage is highly relevant information ...
On page 26 and 27 of that manual, it lists accuracy and resolution separately. The accuracy is how far away you should expect the measured value to be from the actual value. The resolution is the...
Assuming you speak of UART, then the receiver must be told in advance the number of data bits, the number of parity bits and the number of stop bits. The start bit is a logic zero (low) and the sto...
You might get lucky and be able to measure the input resistance using this method. It should work because the black socket (common) is shared by all measurements.
This answer is regarding the resonance issue that C2 is fixing, and how it could be done with a smaller cap. There are two aspects of it. To start, consider the 5.6uH vs the 10uF capacitors. It ca...
Example of answers that should be classified as Dangerous: "Do it yourself" Q&A where someone is fiddling around with 230VAC electronics or other such potentially lethal power sources withou...
In general, the on/off delay is how long it takes from changing the input until the output starts to do something. The rise/fall time is how long it takes to do the something, once it starts doing...
