    In this video we will solve the mystery of the buzzing speaker. The reason for the noises are of course EMC problems, aka electromagnetic compatibility problems. That is why I will explain the reasons for EMC problems, how to measure them and how to fix them as well. While doing so, I will not only talk about mains filter but also about other areas of the EMC. Let's get started!

    Thanks for bringing up this very important topic. In most of the maker designs we see here on UA-cam and elsewhere, EMC is never mentioned. Yet it affects us all on a daily basis, from interference on audio to degraded WiFi or other equipment performance. Moreover, you can even, unknowingly, affect your neighbours. I have friends who have tracked down interference on audio to faulty/cheap/nasty SMPS several houses away!

  • @LorneChrones
    @LorneChrones 4 роки тому

    Great intermediate video into the world of EMC!. A good thing to remember is that signal/power integrity/quality are inversely releated to EMC problems, if you have a well routed signal (tight ground return, matched impedances, length matching on differential pairs, etc), then your signal integrity will be solid plus that particular signal will likely be EMC compliant and immune to external interference. Win-win situations like that are certainly possible and desireable. If you can catch them early in the design phase (schematic & layout) then you'll be saving yourself alot of frustration down the road.
    Recommendation to definitely do a video on ESD / EFT in the future as that's another common EMC problem that EEs must face when designing products.

    I've used Wurth filter components in my professional life, and they have been very good. I'd also recommend Fair-rite for ferrite devices. For this sort of interference, adding a filter will get the job done but adds cost. If this was a production situation, the first goal is always to fix the device emitting the noise. For the hobbyist getting their first exposure to EMC, this is a fine introduction.

    @GreatScott You know, after I watched this, I went to Würth Elektronik, and got the sample(s), and I didnt expect it to be so robust, and everything, I did mention you, and how what you were doing here, is what I wanted to do, and I still didnt think they would send anything at all, from 10th today the 15th of Nov(as there was no delivery date or where it was really coming from nor a tracking number) , holy shnitzel pretzel! HOnestly I thought the package or box anything would have been smaller like literally half the size, they looked so small on the screen, both on here and the website. Enough for 10 of these boards, and 3 are gonna be used to see if I can fix my problem, and maybe even my work problem that will require 3 there as well, 6 already gone... And they are DAMN GOOD quality too! Not the cheap knock offs that one would get with samples, heardy and robust, and damn good case too! Thank you so much GS! I will damn well be ordering other things from them in the future... I hope you get something outa the referrals or something even more! Even after i buy more!

    Common mode filters are great for canceling unwanted stuff, even on high speed / differential transmission lines (USB, RS-485 etc.)
    In most cases I don't need them, but from my experience, It's a good practise to preserve some board space for these components.
