MEP EP#261: Critical Path Components
Parker
What can you do to help alleviate component shortages and lead times in your designLast week we talked about automotive component shortagesPassive componentsMost passives it is easy to find substitutesCheck your specificationsComponents that have extraordinary specs for there package sizeActive componentsDiversify what you canDiscretesDiodes MosfetsIntegrated ComponentsDifferent packages or packagingConnectorsDifferent plating options possible?Other manufactures making similar or compatible partsSearching for components kind of sucks sometimes. Another Quick idea for making this easierAnything that is a complementConnectorsTransistorsGuessed BCP54 - BCP52PCB CrosstalkVideo by Robert Feranec with Eric BogatinWhat causes PCB crosstalk?Capacitive couplingInductive couplingEffects of pcb crosstalkHow do we mitigate pcb crosstalk?One other form of “crosstalk” that really isn't crosstalkPoor filtering and PSRR“Feedforward” currentNot really something that shows up often...
