Single ground plane on layer 2, you know that the days of multiple grounds are gone. However it is splitted to two regions under analog and digital components with wise return path.
I’m working on a Mixed signal 4L PCB using this stack-up:
1L: Signal
2L: GND plane
3L: Power plane (split)
4L: Signal
As you see in the pic The board has two power sources, SMPS for analog and Linear for Digital.
1-Is it a good idea to extend the GND and Power plane under noisy SMPS...
Sample rate was changed to 50Hz now I acheive 2 digit LSB noise !! The result is pretty stable on LCD and I think it is acceptable for AD7715 and also my project requirments .
I like to focus on PCB design and grounding if I get the better result I'll keep you updated guys .
Many thanks ... .
Due to some limitations I can use only one load cell ,,But Im sure somethings is wrong about the ADC or interfacing technic.
Many thanks Fvm , you really pinpoint the problem , I configured AD7715 like this way :
Internal gain block (PGA) : gain=128
Sample rate : 500Hz->filter cut off=131hz...
ad7715 loadcell
The cable position problem was solved with inversing the load cell "S" in the construction . I had wrongly mounted the load cell in the construction and the cable weight itself caused the extra random weight !
But still I have 5 digit LSB noise ! which is a pretty large amount...
mulitile load cell accuracy
Yes , It cannot be replaced . I tried to cut the cable and make it smaller in length , now the results are a little more stable , but the cable position problem still exists .
Im also pretty sure about this and going to contact the manufacturer tomorrow .
The...

Hi
I use a load cell to measure weight in range 0-50Kg ,It is connected to a 16bit ADC and PIC mcu to display the result on LCD in grams . the load cell is from Bongshin Company :
DBBP-50 Kg(S type)

The problem is when I touch and move the end side of the...
what is graphical lcd
You must find out the Controller chip of your Graphical lcd . Regular GLcds are based on KS108 contorller or HDM64GS12 or ... .
The datasheet of this controller chips explaines how to communicate with lcd .
Pay attention that Ni-mh batteries have 1.2V when they are discharge so if u charge a regular ni-mh battery its voltage reaches to 1.4 v and when u have 4 number of them total voltage of the unit become 5.6V .
Standard voltage for alkaline batteries is 1.5v .So total volatge of the four part...
cs4334 mp3
Use MAX232 just for debugging ,Flash memory cards doesnt support common serial link they use SPI port or a kind of 4 wire Bus with clock .
I think its better for you to start with MMC card then u need to decode the FAT structure and read the MP3 file ,its not a bad idea first to...
pic isd
I think you expect alot from PICs .
Which sound do you mean ?
With one output connected to the audio amplifier u create only Square wave with different frequencies using PWM technic or software based technics .
IF u try harder maybe you could play WAV files using external DACs or...
