I've never thought about switching current regulators, despite this is quite natural and making sense. Thank you for instructing us again. (more) |

Maybe. But I have to go now. I'll try to answer to this question tomorrow in the evening. (more) |

Thank you Pete. I'll think about how to include your note inside the article. (more) |

In place of a resistor, what is bad with a 3.3V Zener at the output of the oamp? the output current of the oamp is self limited, and the zener will certainly not burn at this power. Or better, a 100 ohm resistor followed by a Zener, to be totally religious. (more) |

@Olin. Your no 4 is fascinating. So, do you say that the cap should be connected to the ground pin of the part, and this later not connected to the the master ground, or do you say that the cap should be connected very close to the ground pin of the part, while this later may be connected to the mast...

@Lundin. Wha..? a cap is slow? it cannot help with ESD events? don't we have always V = Q/C, where Q is very small for ESD events? oh of course, if the cap has a high ESR, it may be too slow. (more) |

@Circuit fantasist. I have to mitigate my opinion about the link "What does this transistor circuit do". There are indeed interesting things there. I meant there are few interesting things that are not dealt in this article, if out of topic subjects are omitted. (more) |

Your third comment. It is unclear, and I cannot answer to it. Note: again this circuit works, so, I don't see what can be the point here. (more) |

2. Your second comment. Look at the first schematic in sec. C. 1. The transistor changes its collector emitter voltage VCE in order for the voltage between its base and Vout be equal to the Zener voltage. So, we have V_zener = 1 diode drop + R1 i, where i is the current through the transistor. That m... (more) |

@Circuit fantasist. 1. Your first comment: you are absolutely wrong. There is no problem with charging and discharging quickly capacitors, this is their function. If you mean that this may induce a large "inrush" current in the circuit, this is hardly a problem here because the capacitor is unlikely ... (more) |

Regarding "the problem is that the voltage across this circuit will vary significantly with current load". No: you have to choose a sufficiently muscular transistor in order for the current to be independent of the load. This choice is a design question regarding the maximal load to handle. Notice I ...

@Circuit fantasist. Thx for your comments. "Regarding what does this transistor circuit do", I see nothing particularly interesting there (and even some incorrect things). Regarding your "decoupling with a diode between the cap and the base", I don''t understand what you are trying to obtain with tha... (more) |
