This is a perfect video. I wish something like this was used in school while I was studying instead of the lots and lots of equations with no real world understanding. It took me years to find it out myself, this single video would shorten my learning curve to minutes instead of months or even years. THANKS to both you and Wurth Elektronik for providing you the design kit. This is what I consider spot-on partnership.
i dont mean to be so off topic but does anybody know a tool to log back into an instagram account..? I stupidly lost my account password. I love any help you can offer me
@Hugh Tyler i really appreciate your reply. I got to the site thru google and I'm trying it out atm. Looks like it's gonna take a while so I will get back to you later when my account password hopefully is recovered.
I stumbled on Wurth when shopping for smoothing caps. I really loved how much insight they gave into their products. As a non electrical engineer I really appreciate when companies do that and it's so awesome that they even sponsor channels like this.
Great Scott! That's what I say every time I see his penmanship. His freehand looks better than most fonts, and his wiring diagrams are cleaner than something in Fritzing!
I think it's fantastic the way you can use a sponsorship to explain something that actually is useful to know. Keep up with this kind of sponsors and with this tutorials.
I've been watching your videos for 2 years now and it's very interesting how I understand more and more of your in depth analysis as I go through my electrical engineering degree in college. Thank you for making quality videos and going so much more in depth than other videos. Huge fan!
I've been subscribed for a long time in this channel but once again Dr. Scott, you are the most gifted & amazing teacher in the whole world (at least currently). You go so much deep into details & you videos are always slow paced, a visual feasting & they heat up the cold deep inside my heart & knowledge. THANK YOU Sir. I wish we had a way to show you our appreciation.
I always think why we use Different capacitor types in Induction motor(fan) and normally different. A great confusion gets sorted. Thank youh Great Scott
I just learned more about capacitors in this video then in the last semester at uni (I study electronics). love the way you give examples where one can use the different types. would love to see other similar videos about different components
We use Würth tools at work and their quality is second to none, but I didn't know that Würth sell electronic components too. I'll be passing this info to my Boss tomorrow. Thanks! :)
I got for free these set of capacitors. But it is a gift from a engineer to another engineer. Each capacitor has advantages/draw back that are clearly represented in the datasheets. Engineering is often making compromises.
What kind(s) of cap(s) of what value? Always look at the datasheet. From the TC4420 datasheet (cap values for most ICs are usually more definitively stated): "The VDD input should be bypassed to ground with a local ceramic capacitor. The value of the capacitor should be chosen based on the capacitive load that is being driven. A minimum value of 1.0 µF is suggested."
Late reply, the cap should be able to provide the capacitor load provided by the MOSFET Source Gate Junction. Higher load values require higher bypass cap values. For example, driving an International Rectifier IRF3805 is driving into a typical gate capacitance of 7.96 nF. At 100KHZ, this is considerable gate current. A 10nF (0.01uF) bypass cap is going to be inadequate. I worked on an inverter where one driver drove a bank of 4 of these transistors, so the minimum value of 1uF is a good start.
Wow. I’ve been trying to get rid of fast spikes on my power rail and big electrolytics dont help beyond a certain point. I’ve been wondering about adding some small film caps and up comes your video! Brilliant.
The quality of your videos is amazing, i only managed to understand like 30% of all the info on this video but some day i will do 100% :D Thanks and greetings from Mexiko!
Thank you so much. Great video! This answered several questions for me. I think this video could have gone on for another 30 minutes. Choosing the correct capacitor for a project is important based on what the circuit needs. Very nicely done. I also selected the German video at first, and suddenly thought something went wrong with my iPad. 😂😂😂. I really think your videos are the best!!
Awesome tutorial and great resource links. This is a good balance of education an sponsorship. The sponsorship is somewhat behind the scenes but that is goodwill for Würth and I will think of them when component searching. I hope they continue to support the channel.
Great tut. thanx! Now I'm more lively understand what is the parasitic resistance and understand _why_ not to use electrolytic caps for power filtering!
More great vids like this please! Always a pleasure seeing electronics concepts broken down and explained well. Thanks! Stay awesome and I will see you next time!
That was the Video I looked for some months ago 😁. So I searched the web and found something I didn't understand much. But with the help of your video I understand a lot more now. Thank you for that😉
Very fine video! I actually understood most of the theory for once. And thanks for the link to order free samples from Würth Electronik. I knew this procedure existed with other companies but always had trouble in the past. My foreign address or lack of a company name are the usual stumbling blocks. Had I known this procedure I could have avoided some of the $400 on various caps I just spent buying low volumes from several suppliers. More videos like this would be much appreciated!
Wow... there's so much to keep track of when building electronics! I've only recently started playing around, and to do something as simple as lighten a LED on a button press requires me to watch a tutorial xD and I still have no idea what I've done after successfully turning on the LED... Don't worry about me though, I have a fire extinguisher ready ;)
Nicely done,even when you know this stuff. And the cap self resonant freq, yep had totally forgot about that, i think i've never considered it, but its totally useful to know.
Great video! I appreciated the practical explanation of each type of capacitor. What is also interesting is the fact that the power supply was slower in providing the initial current than the capacitor. Thanks for making the video.
That is an awesome capacitor kit! My first thought was high frequency oscillating best to use ceramic. Electrolitics start “ringing” at high frequency creating additional oscillations. A transformer and capacitor would be the most effective in my thinking.
I got to "I built this test track" then I got lost. It is not your fault, you explain very well, it is I who should review some electronics lessons ....
Great video, as always. Thanks!!! Have you thought about creating a playlist featuring electronic projects that we can undertake at home to learn electronics, similar to school labs?
I've come across caps from Würth Elektronik before on Conrad but i don't remember why i didn't choose them. Looks like WE has neat demo kits and more components than i thought.
100 nF X7R bypass caps everywhere. Most of the time, they do their job pretty well. If more "not that instantaneous" energy is needed, add additional 1-10uF ceramic IN PARALLELE to the 100 nF bypass. E.g. for power regulation ICs, I put 100 nF at the in and out and an additional high-capacity cap in parallel at least to the output (mostly, both sides and low-esr electrolyte, 10-100 uF) .
Greetings Scott. I am from India and i have been watching your videos since the beginning of your channel and they all are very good, my request is that, can you make a video about FPGAs? A beginner's guide to FPGAs.
Nice video sir.. Make video on datasheet understanding how to study datasheet of any component And study different properties of materials which use in components..
wurth es una marca de reconocida calidad en herramientas , no sabia que tenia una división de electrónica , probablemente sean componentes de buena calidad
Have you tried synchronizing the LED to a camera in order to make a light that reduces motion blur? Then you can go into how to select a capacitor to deliver the current pulses.
Thanks for an interesting video. Wurth has been promoting their products a lot recently on many electronics distributor websites. Time to check their annual report. Aaand, yupp, as expected, it's nice to see our European companies developing. Hoorah. P.S. Add a 1K pulldown resistor between the MOS gate (connected to driver IC out) and ground. It helps stabilize the circuit and it discharges the gate faster allowing for greater frequencies and less noise (depending on the resistor package, trace width or wire length, etc). Also, you could make a video on linear regulator types and stability. It's interesting how they behave depending on capacitance at the output. Some newer types are far more energy efficient but they easily become unstable to the point they require high ESR tantalum caps. I wonder what's the theory behind that...
Thanks for an awesome vid . Btw I toke your advise and used jlcpcb. I am new to buying pcbs.. so I toke a mayor chance.. the program I use. (which I also recommend for pro beginners is circuit wiz. ) Had some things I was not sure would work in the Gerber file. So I sended them the Gerber to see if it was alright. It was...

I have now my new smart pcbs (in black 😁).. an the end result is magnificent...also the price So I wanted all to know.. also you great Scott, as you promoted it. I am excited for the next phase...so thanks Scott for the promotion.. 👍... I know this has not much to do with the current video...
Super interesting! Can you also discuss about the difference between MKT, MKP type film capacitors? Their price seem to vary quite a lot. What are the practical differences?
As an Electronics Engineer, this a very good approach and explanation condensed in 12 minutes! Many thanks and keep doing these videos

This type of video may not gather quite the audience of your build videos, but they are extremely helpful for students.
This is a great way to do sponsorships. We get to learn more about a general part and you get more revenue for your hard work. Win win in my book.
Phenomenal content. I love how much detail is given to a seemingly simple subject. Great job, as usual.

Excellent presentation and great refresher for me.
The way you draw on paper with out grid squares is sarisfying
Thanks for the in-depth analysis. 🙏🏼
Awesome! I've always wondered how big is too big.
Wow, this was a really good video. I learned like three things that I didn't before, and didn't quite know how to ask.
Würth connectors are also quite interesting, for example they make or made some high current PCB connectors that don't even need soldering.
Did anyone notice a 'puff' of smoke rise when the LED lit up at the beginning of the video?
It's magic i guess xD
Like, before watching the video. A fan from Italy.
Congratulations on 1M subscribers
I love your channel!! Keep it up! It gives me all i need to learn about electricity, circuits and components!
I got to "I built this test track" then I got lost. It is not your fault, you explain very well, it is I who should review some electronics lessons ....
I liked it when scott tried to underline the datasheet with the phillips head screwdriver ....
I remember the first time I read a datasheet in school and saw timings in nanoseconds. I was hooked.
Great video, as always. Thanks!!!
