    I was fortunate to have taken a course early in my career back in the late 80s taught by Prof. Tom Van Doren on Grounding and Shielding. He covers most of these same concepts, but in more detail given that it was a two-day course rather than two hours. Very useful for control engineering and instrumentation as well as PCB design.

  • @MsAndy60
    @MsAndy60 2 місяці тому

    I've been a designer since the 80s. I have been working in Altium since its release. (A mixed and power electronics designer).
    I haven’t seen anything more exciting, I was stuck for two hours. Lots of adrenaline. Detectives are resting! Thank you for the material.
    Much is familiar and has long been intuitively understood. I developed some of my own triks and solved problems differently. But here is a wonderful systematization of the life experience of a wonderful designer on the way from a teapot to a pro!!
    I understand it and remember every one of my mistakes and every crazy PCB. At some point I realized that the EMC laboratory should be behind my back, and not from someone for money. I assembled it, and the work went much faster. Thank you so much again!

    Great presentation. At 32:00 there is an interesting effect not discussed. At very low frequencies the Z0 goes up (nonlinearly) due to finite R and G as frequency approaches zero; a low frequency dispersion. You can see this effect on some RF VNA that go down to 300 kHz or lower.

    @Graham_Wideman 3 роки тому +16

    7:00 the question of should you attach the cable shield to chassis or to circuit ground, for which Rick's answer is always to the chassis (and for good reasons). That's all very well, so long as this cable is not designed to carry the signal return (slash ground reference voltage) on the shield, like several standards for audio cables do, for example. In that situation, you don't want the shield conductor to connect the chassis of two pieces of equipment that are plugged into mains, where their chassis are individually connected to the ground pin of two different wall outlets, thus introducing a ground loop, and a hum voltage that adds to the audio signal being communicated. There's a reason for insulated RCA sockets, insulated BNC sockets and so on.

    Turns out that when I design a PCB that I'm doing the right thing naturally, to me it's common sense but I still learned a couple things from this video that I can improve on in the future so many thanks for taking the time to make this video and sharing it here on UA-cam.
    If you're researching electrical engineering and go into the specifics like this topic in this video it's very hard to find anything coming close to the quality and the wealth of accurate and reliable information like we get with this video, we need more of this online in the public space because there's too many people talking about these things online who don't have a clue of what's really going on and if you're doing research on a specific part in EE that you're not familiar with and you listen to the wrong people you'll get misinformed and it's even harder for someone to recognize being wrong and have to learn it all over again to get rid of the misinformation planted in your head by all those idiots thinking that they know it all which is costing too much time that you never get back, it happened to me several times so I'm talking from my own experience.
    Again many thanks for putting this online guys and I wish you all the best,
    Ricardo Penders.

If you would blindly trust the video without understanding what is happening, how will you apply it for actual PCB design anyway?

      @@TheVideoVolcano They are wrong and I can prove it. Ask them How does the Electricity from the Power station get to their Home? The Cables are the Wave Guide, as the EM fields are OUTSIDE the wires travel 100's of Km/Miles - this is true because you move a wire next to the Power cable and get the EM energy to move into your wire. The Transmission Line System Proves this to accurate - have you seen the Veritasium videos on How Electricity Actually works? It's a Study of Electrodynamics. A Capacitor is a break in the circuit, nothing should cross it, but it does, why EM fields travelling though the wave guide. How does RF work? EM fields travelling though space/air meet up with a wave guide, called an antenna and we receive the signals. No Electron from the Power Plant makes it to your Home, All the Power is in the EM fields. Voltage and Amps are Measurements of the EM field. Did you watch the Play list?

    First of all thank you for making this content freely available!
    How does the traditional 2-layer “Manhattan” layout technique mesh with this information? It seems to me that you would be relegated to co-planar signal/return routing since by design current could NOT travel in the same direction on the bottom and top layers, which as you explain would be ideal.
    For reference I am just learning the basics of PCB layout design and am designing some fairly simple 2 layer boards. The “Manhattan” style layout technique was recommended for 2 layer designs at some point but now I am thinking it should be completely avoided!

    This seems similar to the "double slit" paradox. Electricity "takes the path of least resistance", but in order to take that path, it must already know the path
