Comment Post #291093 Fair enough, it would be interesting to know what the gradient looks like for such case. I suspect that standing near 750kV you would need to place your feet incredibly precise to not create a large enough voltage to kill you between your feet. Maybe the circuit was broken in less than a 1/4 phase an...

Question Step voltage 750kV lines
Some gentlemen decided to throw a hook with wire over 750kV lines in Belarus. They survived, however, I find in interesting to find out why. Assuming the connection to Earth was solid, there would be a large fault current and a gradient with step voltage: Imagealttext According to Mike Holt in...

Comment Post #276138 I believe the only circuit I have seen where LED had no series resistance added was with a flat cell battery, which in itself has a high output impedance, and therefore the LED gets to live another day.

Comment Post #289574 Additionally, disassembling will void any kind of warranty. I mean, the cables are cut now, so warranty is off the table anyway. Personally I would guess it is a defective unit, I would buy exactly the same unit, hook it up to a PC the way it is intended to be used, observe if the ''spark'' is presen...

Comment Post #288784 I have to say something about the 'ordinary' board part. I took a guess at what the MCU he uses might be: K64P142M120SF5 for example. Port rise time can be 4ns. The majority of energy content is in frequencies up to 0.5x t_rise, therefore the frequency of concern is from the clock of 120MHz up to 500...

Answer A: Ground pour on outer layers on 4-layer PCB
You have mentioned a few points yourself, so I will try to comment on those points and perhaps suggest some reasons to add or not to add a ground plane. You mentioned twisting (I suppose warping) of the board. I believe there is a chance this happens if the board is not symmetrical copper wise, so...

Comment Post #288757 Thanks for the answer! I am not taking a class, I am mostly busy with PCB design, but in the process I quite often find that I have a 'Why am I doing this in this particular way?'. So for example, application notes often specify to use 10uF in parallel with 1uF and to finish off 100nF. But when I ...

Question How to convert dv/dt of noise into frequency for filter capacitor selection?
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 way of noise coupling into signal lines is through inductive coupling, where changing magnetic fi...

Comment Post #288641 So by the same logic something like electrical issues and system design with Maneuvering Characteristics Augmentation System that brought down Boeing737 MAX planes also cannot be discussed because it was covered by the media?

Question Titanic submarine control considerations
The submarine built by OceanGate went missing on 18th June 2023. A lot of online criticism was directed towards the control hardware of the submarine - Logitech F710 controller. Imagealttext Imagealttext However, why is this the case? It has 2 dual axis potentiometers and some capacitive sensing...

Question Cable voltage rating
I was looking for guidelines of how to select appropriate cables for applications (I am interested in DC), I found IEC 183 standard which talks about high voltage cable selection for AC. Also, the status of the document is shown as withdrawn, so I assume it is not applicable. I found another docum...

Question micro-RF connector crimping options
Do micro-RF connector mating crimp connectors are ever sold separately together with a crimp tool? For example thisImagealttext I have looked through a lot of pages, and can only find PCB connectors + cable assemblies sold. Are RF connectors manufacturer specific and they do not share the crimp to...

Question Siglent1104 oscilloscope channels lagging
First I noticed that clock begins before chipselect gets pulled low on SPI. After eliminating potential sources I started to suspect the scope. I connected all 4 channels to function generator at different frequencies and observed 25ns gap between channel pairs. The probes were all the same 100Mhz st...

Question Unexpected impedance spike when paralleling capacitors
I was watching a video from EEVBLOG about bypass capacitors, and he presented a theory that randomly connecting different values of capacitors in parallel can create unexpected impedance spikes: Image alt text To inspect the picture, right click and open in new tab, the scales are then visible.
