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...
I have a similar problem when debugging firmware on a dsPIC that drives a flyback power supply. The switch isn't designed to be on for very long, as eventually the inductor saturates. Usually the...
Breakpoints are beyond the scope of the C language, so this is up to the specific debugger and CPU core. What you will probably have to do to block accidental breakpoints is to not provide any debu...
Got a question about hazardous breakpoints in real-time firmware. 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...
A while back someone suggested that we added a section for reviews to the site - How about a new section for code reviews? From that meta thread we gathered that: There seems to be community con...
Those are fiber optic cables that are wound back and forth between those "snowshoe" devices, which are used to limit the bend radius of the fiber. Those are needed to avoid propagation losses due ...
Apart from correcting capitalization, which is a valid change, I think you are at the same time doing a lot of subjective changes to certain tags and it can get very intrusive on the site. I don't ...
Like every Product, there is a price-functionality curve, and while it is true that some big ECAD software have capabilities beyond what Eagle or Kicad offer (see other answers), those capabilities...
Feel free to provide a list here and someone will go through and update them. For instance, I've just renamed [led] to [LED]. Please include both the old tag name, the new name, and ideally an expl...
In my effort to clean-up and organize tags on EE.CD I arrived at a point where there are a lot of old tags with wrong capitalization. How should I request the staff to change them? Should I post ...
Looking for KalleMP who last commented on the link attached. https://electronics.stackexchange.com/questions/368517/remotely-monitor-condition-of-fuse#:~:text=R1 %26 the LED are the basic indicato...
If a data sheet gives the thermal noise (of +3/-3 standard deviations) as 1 uVpp does it mean that out of every thousand samples, 3 will have noise more than ±1 uV at any sample rate? 1000 sps wi...
67 tags deleted, 10 with posts still attached left alive.
I've just finished a first clean-up of the tags pages, where I consolidated tags, provided synonyms, wrote guidance text and defined some hierarchy. As a result there are quite a lot of "dead" tag...
I have just started learning about thermal noise in op-amps and while studying could not find if the noise given in op-amps data sheets is random sample to sample regardless of the time interval be...
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...
Adding to what Lundin said (+1): s is seconds, S is siemens (1/Ω). What we write here is inherently HTML. Greek characters like µ and Ω are defined as HTML entities, and can always be writte...
I agree with everything said. I didn't really consider until now that Codidact (unlike Someplace Else) supports case-sensitive tagging. So in addition, perhaps add a note regarding the following: ...
Using voltage as a way of saying "I'm dealing with voltage here" is pointless - most electronics questions do. I think the voltage vs current tags are however relevant in the case when you need to...
I don't have that book, but the statement you cite (emphasis mine): ... when s=jω the integral on the RHS of eq. 2.48 does not converge for unstable systems doesn't mean the transfer function...
Sorry, but I have to challenge your premises when you say that most numbers are "round numbers" and that could be a reason for choosing some value. You compare those values by the number of decima...
I've noticed there are a lot of tags referring to general physical quantities (e.g. current, voltage, frequency) I'm not sure if they are useful. For example, what usage would have the tag voltage...
The two ICs you reference don't do the same thing. The first sentence of the first datasheet says: The MAX16141/MAX16141A ideal diode controllers provide system protection against a variety of sy...
I would like to save some costs with ideal diode controllers. Basic requirement is for the diode controller to block overcurrents (short circuits) in both directions. The MAX16141A IC can do it a...
I've done a lot of work on tags lately and I'd like to share with the community some thoughts about the way tags should be named so that maybe it could become part of the FAQ and so hopefully lead ...
