- Voltage Regulator Overvoltage - Random KiCad Tips
I wanted to give a quick office update and get your thoughts on ideas for the path of the channel in the future. I also discuss a recent issue with a board prototype we recently encountered.

I loved the max voltage story/lesson. Thanks!
Interested in setup of the new office as well. :)
I'm definitely interested in setup of the new office!
Tech is definitely the prime focus, but other aspects of running a tech shop is cool ... snd you never know, I might want to set up a shop myself :-)
Hi! Great tips. PS. Nice glasses :). Your videos teach me how to better design what I need/what other people need, thank you! General stuff on channel as variation from pure engineering content will be refreshing and really, really great! Keep up with your work guys, you rocks!
I like the idea of product design vlog. I think it could be interesting.
But I feel like desing video like this one will still my personal favorites.
Keep up the good work !
input power cable doesn't need to be coiled to present an inductance. there's a good TI app note on this issue somewhere but i'm having a hard time finding it.
Your videos are gold! As an EE student I am amazed! I hope I see you covering other similar topics and maybe bootstrapping.
That's the plan!
Maybe a resetable fuse PTCC could have helped on the transient on power on? Interesting vídeo, thanks!
Your solution for the mounting holes was a good one. However, you’ll probably want to take into account the screw head as well. That 2.7 mm only refers to the clearance size for that threads. The screw head is the location where most of the friction/wear will occur. Something like 7 mm of overall pullback would be more appropriate. Naturally, this depends on the fastener used.
In my designs, given that they have regular contact with users (humans and their static that they seem to enjoy dropping onto these devices), I place an earth ground PTH instead - even if a given mounting holes is not actually wired to anything else on the board. Since the hole will then be on a different net, it will pull back the power/GND plane automatically.
Thanks for sharing such a valuable information, covered every minute details that has to be noted. I wish you can make some videos on what are the important stuff's we should look on to the datasheet before starting a PCB design. Since iam a beginner confused what all parameters i should take care off.
I like that idea a lot! I will definitely work on a video/blog post on that topic, thanks.
Yes please.. Would be interesting to know..!
Oops. Forgot to mention that I have been really enjoying your video series. Maybe I’ll forward you one of my designs to learn all of the things I have likely done incorrectly, or at minimum, could be improved. Keep it up! Subbed. +1
Additionally - upgrade KiCAD to 5.1, great version. About fiducials and mounting holes problem I don't think if there's a better way than you did, what's left is to report that issue to the library guys to fix it.
Downloading as we speak! Wasn't aware there was a new version after 0.2. Also, still planning on doing your review when I have time, the reviews just take so much longer than most videos..
@@MicroTypeEngineering about reviewing my board - I know It's terrible, I've found that myself "in the field" - problems with programming esp, scraping soldermask for additional wires, wrong values of 4 resistors in DC-DC section, dangerous playing with near-maximum voltage for DC-DC Converters used, lack of 2 resistors, clock generator crystal is little too far from device. Maybe you will see more problems with it than me now. Take your time, don't rush with content, everyone can wait :)
good to have you back
anything related to electronics design and monetization, I would love to watch ;) !
I think being a channel with few subscribers, you should probably go straight into the subject of the video and save the housekeeping for the end.
For your NPTH mounting hole, why do you feel it is necessary to pull the solder mask away from under the fastener head? As long as the copper is pulled back what does it matter if there is solder mask there? Or is it an aesthetic choice to have the bare G10 (or what ever FR-4 material you are using in your boards) exposed to help visually identify the mounting holes?
Yup you're right, no real reason other than aesthetics. I like being able to see 100% that there is no copper under the screw.
