If you were then rest assured, if you'd left me a comment, I'd have fixed it. I'm very wary about anyone editing my posts but I'm quite happy to receive a comment. (more) |

@manassehkatz I see you made an edit suggestion but I see nothing in what you did actually changed anything. If you are going to make an edit then please ask first out of politeness and don't assume that I will agree to it. I rejected the edit on that basis. I've now edited the post because of a spel...

| Answer | — |
A: Electrolytic capacitor lifetime rating The lifetime rating is (usually) quoted as "so many" hours at a certain temperature and that is the crucial thing to be aware of. For instance, consider a capacitor like this one: - Image alt text Some in the range are only rated for 5,000 hours at 105 °C but, if they were run at an average tem... (more) |

| Question | — |
Electrolytic capacitor lifetime rating If you search through the electrolytic capacitor offerings from distributors like Farnell, RS, Digikey or Mouser, you find that the maximum life-time rating is commonly quoted as 5,000 or 10,000 hours at such and such a temperature. If I divide 10,000 hours by 24, I get 417 days = 1.14 years. This... (more) |

The question isn't this: *How can I acquire electronic parts/items/modules* - the question is how to ensure that there is minimal risk of them being unsuitable. The "and" in the question is very important. So, your section on where to buy them is missing the point. I also think it's wrong that you u... (more) |

A: Pi-Filter for EMC > What would be the main considerations to use Pi-filters for EMC? Using the filter correctly and understanding its limitations EMC or EMI (electromagnetic interference) is noted for its high frequency energy content. Applying a \$\pi\$ filter like the one below can significantly attenuate tho... (more) |

@Olin your image is not showing. I am going to add more sections to this answer so it might be that your answer "what Andy described" might not hit the mark in terms of the fullness of what I hope to complete! (more) |

A: Low loss impedance matching without a transformer Low-pass impedance transformation Image alt text Theory Input Impedance: - $$Z{IN} = j\omega L + \dfrac{\dfrac{RL}{j\omega C}}{RL + \dfrac{1}{j\omega C}} = j\omega L +\dfrac{RL}{1 + j\omega RL C} = \dfrac{j\omega L - \omega^2 RL LC + RL}{1 + j\omega RL C}$$ Multiply numerator and denom...

| Question | — |
Low loss impedance matching without a transformer I have a signal at 10 MHz produced from a 50 Ω source. How can I match that to a 300 Ω load with low losses without using an RF transformer (space constraints)? Are there any circuits and formulas that can help me achieve this? (more) |
