    Noise at the comparator output

    Hi Klaus, 3x ceramic 4.7uF and one 47nF is placed at VDD5 net. @Others: Will consider all these feedback and reply which one worked.

    Noise at the comparator output

    Thanks for the quick reply KlausST. There is a bypass cap on the board at the supply of the comparator LM2903YPT. VDD5 is generated from an onboard LDO and its quite stable. There is cap of >10uF at VDD5 net. There are provisions to add caps to filter the noise at U4 pin 3, U4 pin 2 and U3 pin...

    Noise at the comparator output

    Hi, I need help with a circuit using two comparators (LM2903YPT) to identify overvoltage and undervoltage conditions on 12V supply. If the supply voltage is within a certain range, the output shall be pulled up to 5V. But if the supply voltage is out of the specified range, the output shall be...

    Current Rating of a trace and its behaviour

    Hello, I am designing a PCB for a automotive application. The PCB has few traces which is capable of carrying 150A of current for 12s. This is the worst case peak current for the given application. But I need to also ensure that the same traces can handle 350A of current for a short duration...

    Self heating of Ceramic Capacitors

    Hello all, I need to analyze lifetime of a product. For this analysis, The lifetime of ceramic capacitors is to be calculated. The Ceramic capacitors' lifetime depends on the temperature profile of the product and the self heating of the ceramic capacitors. How to calculate the self heating of...

    Battery Management System

    Hi, MAX17852 is new for me. I just glanced through the datasheet. MAX17852 is a 14 cell Data acquisition IC and I feel that this is not suitable for your application. Li ion cells max voltage - 4.2V, Min voltage - 2V (depends on Chemistry) And min. VDCIN of MAX17852 is 9V. As you will be...

    Pspice simulation using IBIS model

    Thanks FvM for the quick reply. :smile: So, IBIS models describes only the I/V characteristics of each pin. That explains why the hct1g08.lib file has a single pin component. I have followed the translation instructions available on Orcad help and few other sources. Result is the same. If its...

    Pspice simulation using IBIS model

    Hello, I need to simulate a circuit which uses 74HCT1G08 AND gate. I got an ibis model for this AND gate. I tried to translate it to spice model using IBIS translator in Orcad 16.6. Steps followed as shown below. - IBIS translator in model editor. - selected all. - selected typical user...

    OrCAD simulation - multiple Parametric sweep

    Hello, I am trying to simulate a R-L circuit whose parameters varies based on temperature. I need to simulate two parameters at two different temperatures. At Temp T1, R = R1 and L = L1. and at Temp T2, R = R2 and L = L2. By using parameter sweep, I can simulate only one parameter at a time...

    -40degC to +125degC version of opamp?

    Automotive grade components has operating temperature range from -40 degC to +125 degC, as the ambient temperature experienced by the components if used in engine compartment of the vehicle can go up to 125 degC. Military grade components have even wider temperature range... starting from -50...

    Inductance measurement- Which is better?

    In different words, Practically, Inductance can vary with frequency (due to parasitic capacitance), temperature of core (permeability varies) and current (affects the losses). So Inductance measurement should be done at conditions in which it is going to be used. if application of an inductor...

    dc mototr driver with direction control from single pin

    Its a good idea to have only two control signals - PWM and DIR. But the dead time between the High side gate signal and the low side gate signal has to be considered, to avoid shoot-through. In the circuit using AND gate and NOT gates, AND gate output will turn on low side MOSFET, where the NOT...

    interfacing relay with microcontroller using NPN OR PNP

    Are you asking "which configuration is better to use? PNP BJT as High side switch or NPN BJT as a low side switch to turn On/Off your sensor" ?? If this is your question and you want to use 12V as supply, you need to give 12V to base of PNP BJT to switch it off. Controller cannot give 12V...

    Li-Ion battery charging requirements

    It is recommended to charge the battery at 0.3C in constant current mode initially and then in constant voltage mode, as mentioned by FvM. In your case, 1C = 2000mA. So, 0.3C = 600mA. Charging the battery at a rate of 0.3C means that it takes approx. 3 hrs to charge the battery. And Its safe...
