how much higher can i go in current ripple RMS None, of course, at least if you want to rely on anything else the datasheet says. The heating is a function of the RMS current. No, you don't get ...
This graph - MLCC temperature rise vs ripple current RMS & frequency If I had a 10 us current spike every 100 000 us (akin to a half-sine wave and then the rest of 9999 sine waves missing), ...
First question I have is why conductor/earth voltage rating for DC is specified lower at 0.9kV? Imagine two cables running side to side. To get from one cable to the other, an electron would h...
Do you supply the PSON# signal before or after the main power comes on, or before connecting the load? Looking at the datasheets, the correct sequence is VAC power on, then PSON# signal to ground,...
Does C have a mechanism which lets me mark a section of code such that breakpoints are somehow ignored or not allowed just in that section? Generally compilers are completely unaware of debugg...
When measuring signals at different points on the skin of the body, you don't usually want to connect the victim patient to ground. Usually you use an extra electrode connected some distance away ...
I agree with this approach. Categories should only be created when they are expected to have reasonable traffic. A category with only chirping crickets is an anti-advertisement. Take a look at t...
CMRR design is key to rejecting grid e-fields that impose noise onto EMG, EKG,EEG amplifiers. This includes all series Zs of cable balance and Amp CMRR. For this reason >100 dB CMRR are requ...
Current limiting input differential Rs of 1M into a 10M INA with clamp diodes make this a simple task.
Any time you have a dielectric interface ( ___ pF ) source resistance will always have an error in signal response until the electrode impedance is eqal or less than the sub-cutaneous impedance. T...
The thermal noise of a resistance depends only on that resistance. However, there is always some parasitic capacitance. That capacitance against the resistance causes a low pass filter. So in a ...
In EMG there is a certain level of thermal noise created at the electrode-gel-skin interface which depends on the skin-electrode impedance (also known as source impedance). I have been able get th...
First, the time dilation experienced by a satellite is tiny on a human scale. It takes sophisticated algorithms and lots of processing power to measure time differences between a spot on earth and...
I am designing a control system controlled by some microcontroller K: The open loop gain is $G_{o}(s) = \frac{K}{s(s^{2}+4s+3)}$ and the closed loop gain is obviously $G_{c}(s) = \frac{K}{s(s^{...
Introduction Yes, all those terms denote the same concept, that of differential (or incremental, or dynamic) parameter of a device. In the following I will explain such a concept initially in the...
RG58 cables come in different variations, even with Teflon dielectric suitable for 200°C operations. Your cable, being suitable for up to 80°C, seems to be one of those with a PVC jacket and Polyet...
One of the main reasons was hinted by Olin's answer, at the end, when he spoke about non-linearities. The same is hinted in the excerpt in Nick Alexeev's answer ("they would overload the player amp...
Most of the issues have been discussed by other answers. However I would like to clarify something about pure water (a.k.a. "distilled water" or "demineralized water"), which is "apparently" not a ...
To truly "open circuit test" a motor as I interpret it, remove it from power, and measure the following: Using an Ohmmeter, measure each winding resistance. Start from W1 to W2. This will be...
I think we should definitely allow technical terms translations, because it's really difficult to find reliable sources online. And the translation process can be tricky, since the translated term ...
I agree with Olin and Mu3 answers. I'll add that you should aim not for just one kind of "high level" component, but many more basic ones. Not every EE course is the same across the world, and man...
Noise can be coupled between signal lines through parasitic capacitance formed between these signal lines, as $i = C\frac{dv}{dt}$ where C is the capacitance between the signal lines. Another wa...
I know that many JFETs parameters have a very large manufacturing spread, in particular, $I_{DSS}$ and $V_{GS(off)}$, as one can see (for example) in this datasheet excerpt: ... My question i...
I'll let someone else answer about the device physics. I'll answer from an electrical engineering standpoint. The answer is: Maybe, but it doesn't matter since you should be considering worst cas...
Many ESD problems are "latent" that is they do not sofort show up....some time later things will stop working :)
