It's very layered, as well. I've found I can watch any one of these videos say, 6 times over the course of 3 years and still find something new (or something old I forgot) that I've learned from it. Not only that, but as your understanding of electronics gets better over the years, so too does your ability to notice new things in these videos. So, it's beneficial on many different levels for both newbs and veterans alike. Personally, I enjoy these as much now as I did when I was only a year into electronics.

Though, I've noticed that many of the electronics youtube channels I watch are run by amateur radio operators. So, I've been studying for my Technician and General licenses. For a job prospect, I've also spent about 40 hours, going through almost every signal integrity and TDR video LeCroy and R&S has.

So much great information in this. And the links in the description are gold. I'm gonna have to bookmark this video just so I can come back to the links. One topic I was thinking might be good for this channel is why you shouldn't use an op amp as a comparator, or in any open loop configuration. I just read a great ap note from TI the other day about it and it seems to be something even seasoned veterans are guilty of doing. The paper was called Op Amp and Comparators - Don't Confuse Them! SLOA067. I really like the new format with the tablet, too. I like to take notes and copy what you've written down as I watch the video, but in the older ones it wasn't as easy because you would rarely have the whole page visible in one shot. The tablet solves that very nicely. Thanks for making these. I really appreciate it.

Alan, I recently managed to resurrect / resuscitate an old Tek 7403 oscilloscope that I was given - a long job but that's another story. It came with 3 plugins, one of which is a 7A22 differential amplifier module. At the moment, I cannot think what it can do for me and wondered whether you could do a (short?) video on function and possible uses /reasons for keeping it. I must stress, I am (was) a mechanical engineer and am dabbling with electronics in my retirement. Many thanks for all of your excellent videos - you do have a knack of explaining things in simple terms.

While there are no ideal diodes, one can build a circuit that does a very close approximation. Often used in solar power applications to minimize losses between panel[s] and the controller.

@power-max 4 года назад

If you are talking about the active MOSFET based ones with a charge pump, I would say they should not even be called "diodes". The one from TI has to turn off periodically for the charge pump to recharge its internal storage cap to continue working. It creates a pulse train. Another one I have seen on bigclives channel in a SMPS also has odd limitations, where you cannot suddenly switch polarity without a brief period of no current.

@w2aew 4 года назад

That's a complicated topic. In order to substitute/upgrade transistors in RF applications, you'd have to understand what particular parameters of the device in question (transition frequency, device capacitance, transit time, switching speed, etc.) is important for that specific application. There is no "rule of thumb" for this.

@waynegram8907 Год назад

Diodes can be used for Decoupling when bussing wire lines. In computer keyboards they use Diodes called Isolating Diodes for the matrix columns and rows to prevent "anti ghosting". I'm not sure why they have to use diodes to prevent anti ghosting. The diodes are used to Decouple the columns wires from the row wires. It would be nice if you made a video lesson about anti ghosting examples and diodes being used to Decouple applications examples.

Do you have any videos explaining the difference between an oscilloscope and a curve tracer? Very good video! and i just subbed. Thanks!

@w2aew 4 года назад

I don't, but can give you a brief overview here. Other than having a graphical display, the two are quite different. An oscilloscope is a general purpose *measurement only* system, to display signal variations (mainly voltage) vs. time. An oscilloscope does not provide any stimulus to a circuit or device under test, so is mainly used on devices that are powered up an operating. A curve tracer is a stimulus and measurement system. It applies voltage or current to a device under test and displays the response to that stimulus. It is typically used on devices that are not powered up.

I'm not sure if I'm correct about this because Diodes Depletion layer has more Doping material so it can Block the current when reversed bias? the Depletion layer in diodes and transistors has a lot of Doping materials? The current flows through the solid silicon crystals but if there is NO doping material the Silicon is just an insulator so not current will flow through the diode or transistor.

@walterbunn280 4 года назад

So... weird question... which diode do you think has the most inherent band width? Like if you're going to be building a transceiver, which diode type is likely to be the most versatile in terms of circuit topology? You can always change the components in your circuit to adjust your filtering, which hopefully changes what signal is getting processed through your circuit, but using a particular diode that can be used to process an array of signals not uncommon. That said, it might be caused by bulk pricing discounts of electronic manufacturers than any real virtue of the diodes themselves. I kinda think Schotcky diodes probably have the highest inherent bandwidth to them because of their "leeky" nature, but they probably need alot of filtering in order to make them good detectors in low to mid-frequency applications.

@w2aew 4 года назад

It really depends on the application. For RF switching, PIN diodes are best because of the long recovery time. But, for mixing applications, schottkys are probably best. So, there is no universal answer.

For example, I'm not sure if the capacitors must be polarized; and why when one transistor conducts, the leg of the capacitor connected to the other transistor's base goes negative.

What is the benefit of using half wave rectification to be the equivalent voltage as full wave rectification? what I mean is what is the difference between +12vdc half wave rectification compared to +12vdc full wave rectification? The end result is +12vdc so what does it matter if its half wave or full wave rectification if the end result is the same equivalent voltage +12vdc

@w2aew 3 года назад

The main benefit for full wave rectification is that the voltage peaks occur twice as often, which makes the ripple frequency twice as much as with halfwave rectification. This means that the output filter capacitors can be half the size for the same effect.

@@w2aew Fullwave rectification ripple frequency is 120Hz and the filter caps value are half the capacitance value compared to Halfwave Rectification ripple frequency is 60hz. Halfwave Rectification can source more current and voltage? or maybe some digital circuits are more sensitive to ripple frequencys at 120hz?
