Clarification on noise (ideal case): the only noise generator is effectively the resistor, however, the RC filter band-limits the signal. Thus, in the Johnson noise equation, plugging in cut-off frequencies, working out the maths.. we arrive that the output noise is v=sqrt(kT/C) (independent of R, independent of bandwidth). However, for a fixed/given cut-off frequency, we would like to decrease R (as stated in the video), as this will in turn increase C and thus decrease the noise. I'd suggest checking this out with a simple noise simulation in LTSpice. I should have explained this better in the video.

Have you seen EEVBlog's videos on Jellybean components? What do you think about them? Dave has not made any video on Jellybean SMPS yet. It would be great if you make this video instead :) We can always check out the Art of Electronics of course.

I had an idea to build an esc with a ST Microelectronics STSPIN32F0 with GaN mosfets to shrink the footprint and power use of a BLDC motor controller. Do you think this is feasible for a small power efficient alternative?

@@PhilsLab Have you made a video that covers the topic of data converters, more specifically choosing an ADC and creating the circuit to interface source to it i.e buffer amplifier and anti-aliasing filter; and choosing a DAC and creating the circuit to interface with its output i.e analogue reconstruction filter or low pass filter; and finally, the method to do PCB layout with these things?

That is great video as a lesson . This is great channel
I used to calculate the component values, but then fine tune on the prototype stage. Other stages never seem to have the impedance I've calculated due to tolerances. Reminds me of when i had to calculate worse case max an min circuit operation to show that with the components tolerances the circuit board will always be within specification in production. Bloody hard work when you were doing it with a calculator 😢😢
No questions, so very good!

dear sir please how to get quasi sine wave (inductive crankshaft signal for automobile -12V to 12V ) from square wave i.e crankshaft signal (hall effect) varing from 0 to +5 VOLT using for exemple a low pass filter note: the frequency range is : 500 HZ TO 30KHZ THANKS SIR
Recently I had related problems with a flyback topology power supply. There were only electrolytic capacitors in its output filter and comething caused stochaicly occuring sinusoidal high amplitude RF noise (40-100MHz depending on the powered device) on the output (like +-8V). I think it was some LC ringing but didn't trace it back to the exact source. The solution I had was to disassemble the power supply and add 100pF + 100nF capacitors wit appropriate impedance characteristics to the output filter and the noise is instantly down to about 130kHz and +-2V at worst. So knowing this I'm adding some serious RF filtering to the final version of that device.

That's interesting, thanks for sharing! I'm actually currently working on a design which incorporates an isolated flyback topology converter. Will see how that pans out!
The total output noise is only dependant on the capacitance. Bandwidth is 1/(2piRC) and both Rs cancel out. So increasing R would not really increase the noise.
@PhilsLab
11 ай бұрын
That's true that the Rs cancel out and it's only dependent on C, for the LPF case. However, for a given/fixed cut-off frequency, if we increase R we need to decrease C, which thus increases the voltage noise. Therefore, it makes sense to choose a smaller R to give a larger C, in turn giving lower noise. You're right that it's an 'indirect' cause though and I should have explained it better.

Hi Phil, I would like to buy your course(s) , however I use Fusion360 to design PCB's as a brand new embedded hardware engineer. Would the course be useful? or would you advice otherwise because you are using Kicad. Best regards, Jeffrey

Hi Jeffrey, both courses will be helpful regardless of what software you use. However, the mixed-signal course is definitely quite tailored towards KiCad. The advanced hardware course is far more tool-agnostic.
