Using only ceramic capacitors on an input of an SMPS - unclear advice from manufacturer

The ESR is exactly the reason why. Assume you have pure capacitor with no ESR and you connect it to a voltage supply with a wire which is a pure inductance, you get an LC oscillation which never ...

Help me to identify an SMD component marked 'NM' in an SOT-89 package

I think @Tony is correct, the photos match lcsc's listing for the 2SCR533P5T100 and 2SCR533PT100. The latter is NRND and the difference between the two appears to be grade related- the electrical and ...

How to sample current in high-kHz to low-MHz

There are several important parameters you don't specify, but generally, this looks like exactly the sort of thing that wide-bandwidth current transformers are made for. Pearson (no affiliation) is, ...

MOV and resistor selection of smps,flyback converter

What is the use of that resistor(10 ohm 2Watt) ? It's a fusible, quite possibly wire-wound, 10Ω-2W resistor. It acts as both an inrush limiter and a fuse. I think I should place it as shown in the ...

Using only ceramic capacitors on an input of an SMPS - unclear advice from manufacturer

simulate this circuit – Schematic created using CircuitLab Consider these two circuits. The current sink is a timed step current of 100mA. The problem with the barely damped ringing with little ...

Constant output voltage in buck-boost converters

I've tried to understand why the voltage across the inductor is constant. I think it is thanks to the generator to which the inductor is connected in parallel, and which provides constant voltage, so ...

Distribute power from one battery to multiple devices

All these components on that system, works in certain amount (range) of voltage, right? Right. how can I create a system - above the main system - to distribute power correctly Do not power the ...

Help me to identify SMD diodes marked '1DN'

The markings and package seem to match with a CITC B1DWGL-SN rectifier diode. The package is SOD-123S which seems about right from the picture.

Swapping CANH and CANL kills my power converter

U5. 5V and 3V3 doesn't seem connected to any other net. They should be connected as done with U4 or otherwise the IC will obviously not work and might get damaged. U1. Why are there no caps? You need ...

Relation between crossover frequency of loop gain and closed loop's corner frequency when feedback is not unity

I think your confusion comes from the definition of the closed-loop bandwidth. The closed-loop bandwidth is defined as the frequency where the magnitude of the closed loop gain is -3 db down from the ...

Can varnish affect the performance of the air gap in an SMPS transformer?

Change of phase of materials often results in change of mass or in this case thickness. Water to ice for instance. If the varnish filling the gap expands on curing you have a new gap size and new ...
