This page contains very basic info about electronic components
Links would be helpful, the info is certainly out there, no need to duplicate. ---- SMD sizes SMD components are preferred to thruhole, because boards with SMD components are much more durable, and manufacturable with higher quality. * for the small components, size 0805 is our favorite - easy to work with (much easier and faster than throughole) and relatively high density. (going to smaller 0603 components for some new - under construction - boards manufactured fully on picknplace machines). ---- Electrostatic discharge ... ---- :Capacitans Conversion Table :0,000 001 uF = 0,001 nF = 1 pF :0,000 01 uF = 0,01 nF = 10 pF :0,000 1 uF = 0,1 nF = 100 pF :0,001 uF = 1 nF = 1 000 pF :0,01 uF = 10 nF = 10 000 pF :0,1 uF = 100 nF = 100 000 pF :1 uF = 1 000 nF = 1 000 000 pF :10 uF = 10 000 nF = 10 000 000 pF :100 uF = 100 000 nF = 100 000 000 pF ---- Wattage for resistors and diodes FlyBack related ---- Thermal equations heatsinks: TO220 junction to environment is tipically 60K / Watt, which means that for 50C environment and 1W the junction will be 110C. When a heatsink (say 10K/Watt) is applied, much higher power can be dissipated safely than without the heatsink (TODO: real example, look up junction to heatsink thermal conductivity). ---- Electronic links * [try to find out what these circuits do] (not serious) |
