Decoupling capacitor near the power source or near an IC chip acts like a shock absorber in your car. While the IC circuit is in operation its current consumption fluctuates up and down, at times the current fluctuation maybe sudden and dramatic if driving high load current. The capacitor near the IC acts as a Low Pass Filter (or shock absorber) to prevent those heavy sudden fluctuations and to ensure that the IC operation is maintained steadily - due to severe current fluctuations the IC may suffer failure. By the same analogy if you are driving your car on the highway and suddenly encountered a bumper or little stones then you may not feel it and you keep feeling comfortable, because your car's shock absorber springs took the shock and you didn't feel it - and you are still in that happy safe feeling. Thanks to the capacitor springs...!
Wow that's an interesting explanation, thanks Mike :)
Sir I wants to learn...how to design electronics circuits
Thats a good analogy
❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️.....crucial info you just shared with us!!!!! This is very commonly deployed in High-End SMPS like Corsair brands directly on the socket itself ,beit for PC or other electronic devices...the only setback is the poor quality of the electrolytic capacitor they use for such high priced SMPS.
@Eli Sebastian I searched for it on Google, and the top reference was a clown. Hmmm, am I doing something wrong?

#9 7:22 Choosing the right components
#10 8:20 Understanding the building blocks
As a student I can do all of the circuit analysis and math to find gain or frequency cutoff of a given circuit, but this taught me some of the thought process behind the choices made. Thanks.
Neatly presented. Here is a missed tip. Adding version number and date to the schematics.
Ten years ago I used to teach students and coworkers electronics and programming and I still do it today. I find your RUclips videos pretty neat, job well done, keep the great work.
Thank you Mike :) Appreciation from a fellow instructor feels great :)
Hello sir i want to learn electronic can you suggest me some flow in circuit desigining?

Switching a higher current load? Consider using a MOSFET instead of a Darlington pair.
The IRF540 is a favorite of mine.

GREAT TUTORIAL- THANK YOU
Great video, thank you! I learned some new things about capacitors and transistors.
Two corrections:
#7 "LEDs... are quite slow to react to a high-frequency PWM signal." Nope, LEDs turn on and off very fast! Most people can perceive an LED blinking at 200 Hz; some can see >300 Hz. Always use PWM frequency >400 Hz for dimming LEDs, or you may notice the blinking.
#8 "Provide individual traces when connecting different signal references back to the ground or common node." In the apps I've used, doing this in the schematic doesn't constrain the PCB layout at all; you have to remember to do it in the PCB editor.
Hi guys PCB design guidelines available her
imojo.in/1c58qt4
You are correct. The video says that they are slow to react, but in actuality, it is the human perception which can be a bit slow to react, relative to circuit (digital signal/PWM) frequency. LEDs themselves can be quick enough that an LED and high speed photoreceptor could be paired and used for sending an audio signal wirelessly.
In case of the ground return, copper pour or additional layer for ground is always helpful, if your circuit does not have any contraindication or constraint for that.
Exactly what I wanted! Thanks!

Thanks for remind me about the darlington pair transistors, I have been having problems saturating single bipolar transistor with little current because of low gain...
No problem :) Do visit www.gadgetronicx.com for more tutorials, Circuits and Projects
Surprised to see I already knew pretty much all of this
Tip#11 Reinventing the wheel. There's plenty of circuits already made for most applications. Just pick one and tailor it to your application. There's rarely a need to start from scratch.
Absolutely true
Yes indeed, but also do not get afraid to invent if that is not available. Be aware and wise enough to judge that, the available circuit is modifiable enough to fit into your need.
I need to watch this a few times! Great info.
Glad it was helpful!
Very helpful, thank you ☺

Great explanation!!!!! I really enjoy your detailed explanation on all your tutorial...well done sir.
Many thanks!
5:36 Actually the gain of a darlington pair is the product of the gains of the two transistors. So in your example the gain would be 10,000-40,000.

superb
This was great! Thank you :D
Hi
Very helpful. I'm not a professional designer but I like to hack things together to either make something fit my purpose, or from scratch if none exists. I'll keep these points in mind as I advance to more complex circuits. Particularly what you said about using a micro-controller rather than an assortment of discrete parts - something I should work on. That being said, a 555 timer, a cap and a resistor versus 2 caps 2 resistors and 2 transistors, they can each accomplish similar goals but the former costs about $0.67, the latter, about $0.30. That's been my justification for my fear of IC's. But if I want to build better things with greater capabilities and accuracy, I really need to work on that "fear".
What you said is absolutely right but sometimes using discrete parts can get really messy. When developing products last thing we want it to be messy. Also I didn't shoot down the possibility of using discrete chips but rather spend some time to find the right way to achieve the objective the efficient way.
@@Gadgetronicx that is correct. And material costs is often not an issue for a maker. If you have a simpler solution you safe time and effort, event if it costs a few cents more. And the well known multivibrator solution with the 2 transistors, 2 capacitors and 4 resistors has serious drawbacks. One is the signal steepness, another one is the limitation of operating voltage to a maximum of about 5 volts (otherwise you get avalanche breakdown of the base-emitter diode of the transistors, which can be harmful if the capacitors have higher capacities, because the stored energy ist "burned" in the pn transition).
Owsam helpfull 😊😊

Dear sir. Thanks for your very informative video.
Welcome
Thank you....its great...👍👍👍
Glad you liked it :)
Is there any good text book or other material on how to build a micro controller from scratch or how the internals of an op amp work etc?
Ben eater has a youtube series where he built an 8 bit computer on a breadboard using just logic chips, I think that's as close as one can get! It is a very informative video series.
Check Ben eater
The reason of tip number 8 is that potential may differ a little ? This is only useful in extremely precise applications ? Or is it needed on a larger scale ?
Careful with external pullups, bias circuits, and inductive spikes when using an mcu. A few volts over the gpio rated max can brick your processor.
That beat though!!
Can we use coil transistors in digital circuits ?
nice video sir .please make a video about how to solve huming sound in dual ic 4440 audio board
Helpful.
Thank you
nice one

Thank you ....good tips...please share the document links
Here it is detailed explanation - www.gadgetronicx.com/10-circuit-design-tips/
What design have you been working on recently?
Your video better experienced
Thank you
nice video sir!! , I'd like to ask why should we use two capacitor electrolytes and ceramic as decoupling?? is it enough to just use 1 capacitor??
That's a good question. Technically both the capacitors are decoupling ones. But the key difference is that the big bulky one serve as a charge bank and supplies the chip with current when there is a brief interruption in power supply. However small capacitor will be fast therefore it will be much effective is responding to voltage spike from the supply
Very useful.keep continue
Thank you :)
nice

Keepu uploading videos buddy
with number 4 wattage will determine the size of SMD resistors too.
Good tutorial. You should do a tutorial on how to use microcontrollers to replace components.
Thank you, will do :)
Sir how to make gemstones location mchines please tell me how to make circuit boards
what is the software you are using
I have a rechargeable electric shaver with a 2W resistor in the recharging circuit. This electric razor cost $70 when new. While charging, this resistor slowly burns itself up, especially if you deeply discharge the battery, the battery goes bad, or when you use it while plugged in. Once this resistor dies, the whole shaver quits working. From an engineering perspective, this resistor was selected as the most cost effective choice. But in practical terms, this is an engineering failure. I replaced the resistor with a 5W variant and the shaver has lasted me over 20 years so far, even after the rechargeable battery quit taking a charge.
please do any circult using resistor ,capacitor ,diode and inductor
Sure will do :)
informative.....
Thank you do visit www.gadgetronicx.com for more tutorials and projects
hey new idea old subject that is if you have knowledge of computer programming and how to build them. led panels controlled by bios chips with voltage sensors placed at the end of every led to control and prevent over voltages of the led solar panel system. a bios can be augmented to allow the pass through of electricity only when needed just like the operation of a microprocessor. in this way only a portion or even a large portion can be used to create effective solar energy. this is possible because the bios program will only allow energy in when it is needed. this will prevent over voltaging of household circuits. a simple switch sensor will prevent too much power from reaching the circuit by saying it is not ready to use. this can be tested with very bright flashlights to prove how many chips will be needed in a circuit and should be test by someone. good luck.
Good

Sir I have a doubt ,when capacitor is connected in parallel to the ice or supply voltage ,it becomes a junction .in these cases the capacitor will have same voltage and ic too have same voltage can plz clarify these
Yes the capacitor will have same voltage as power supply. This is quite commonly used to stabilize the output.
which software is best for ckt design ..?
I use Proteus and Eagle both are very handy
D-cup Ling and Ka-Pling capacities
These are great tips for students and starting hobbyist...
But hopefully you're not a professional that learned something new from this... :D
Ouch, yes agreed. When I started, text books didn't convey a lot of practical aspects of design. You had to learn from others. Much like high school doesn't prepare you for life. Teaching by rote is at times cruel, especially when the subject matter is wrong to start with.
Do you have a training center , where 50+ age hobbyist will be trained in electronics
what happens if I use 1V 1AmH battery for a circuit that consumes 1V 2AmpereperHour? Does it just break the battery or it just gets discharged quickly?
Hi Sai, Ampere per hour is meant to refer the battery capacity. It's the most common method to specify a battery's capacity. Whereas when you refer to a circuit drawing 2 Ampere it means that it is consuming 2 amperes per second. Regarding your question theoretically if you draw 2Amps from a 1Ah battery it will discharge in half an hour. But batteries are quite complex in practical circuits. Discharging a battery's full capacity can certainly cease it from working. It also depends on its battery chemistry
what is bootstrapping in circuits?
Bootstrapping is meant to control the input impedance in an amplifier by feeding part of output signal back to the input.

In other words leave it to the professionals!
What program do you use to make your circuits?.
Great video, you have a new sub :P
That's great news. I use Eagle and Proteus
