    Bypassing high frequency currents successfully

    I have read something interesting on Page 11 of the Power Integrations TNY268 datasheet:

    There are constrictions in the traces connected to the input and output filter capacitors. These constrictions are present for two reasons. The first is to force all the high frequency currents to flow through the capacitor (if the trace were wide then it could flow around the capacitor).

    This is something to consider when designing a power supply, especially a switching power supply. I have seen some power supplies follow this rule regarding the PCB trace constrictions.
    My first choice in quality Japanese electrolytics is Nippon Chemi-Con, which has been in business since 1931... the quality of electronics is dependent on the quality of the electrolytics.

    This is really nothing new, its quite frequently used even on low-freq. (60Hz) board designs. It's somewhat analogous to star grounding (directing the currents & such)..

      Is there any high current pouch battery that are size 60mmX80mm maximum thickness 21mm for a battery operated tab welder
      by sam_sam_sam
      I have a battery operated tab welder and the battery does not have enough current for the battery tab welder because after about 30 welded it does not have the same current output it voltage has gone down by at least 0.500 volts or maybe a more than that

      I can fit 21700 battery cells in the enclosure it is very tight fit for four of them that are 35 amp high current capacity 35X4=140 high current output this should work a lot better than what is installed right now

      I tested the battery cells there are installed right now and they are testing good with no issues that I...

      Extreme High Current & Low Voltage Short Killer ??
      by DynaxSC
      Hi Folks

      I'm looking for a extreme high current short killer solution for a reasonable cost.

      I have an LGA1700 motherboard (ASUS PRIME Z790-P WiFi) where I exchanged the LGA socket already 3 times, and every time after the socket exchange I get a short of power supply lines VCORE (V variable) and VCCIN_AUX (1.8V).
      After taking off the socket, the shorts dissappear again.
      The soldermask on the socket is already partially demaged from the heat, so I have reconstructed the soldermask by manually painting the missing soldermask parts with a very small top of a...

      Acer Nitro 5 AN515-45 not charging
      by CPUFiddler
      Hi there. I am trying to repair an Acer Nitro 5 AN515-45 and it's giving me some trouble. I have access to SMD rework station, variable power supply, digital oscilloscope, thermal camera, multimeter, stereo microscope.
      This laptop will boot and run from the power brick and/or the internal battery, but it will not charge the battery. NirSoft BattInfo tells me the charge/discharge currents, so I'm confident in saying that it's not charging. In addition, there's no increase in voltage at the battery connector when the laptop thinks it's charging, not even a few millivolts.
      I've downloaded...
