Hello Sir, I am an EEE student, I also find Mr. Ben-Yaakov video's very enjoying. I read that you work as a chip designer which I respect! When I have an opportunity to ask a professionalist a question, I always ask for his favorite book or paper, something from which he enjoyed learning. Would you please share your favorite source of information about electronics? I am particularly interested in analog design.

@@hidennseek1483 Hi, There are many books, I started with hobby electronics books and magazines when I was child then In undergraduate I had some theoretical books , which were interesting then when I was getting my Ph. D. I had many more books with great deal of mathematical and theoretical background. I would start with your university books. I would start with this: Microelectronic Circuits by Adel S. Sedra (Author), Kenneth C. (KC) Smith (Author), Tony Chan Carusone (Author), Vincent Gaudet (Author) For analog circuit design I love Razavi's books he is very logical here are some of his excellent books: * Design of Analog CMOS Integrated Circuits * Fundamentals of Microelectronics * RF Microelectronics * Design of CMOS Phase-Locked Loops: From Circuit Level to Architecture Level * High-Speed CMOS Circuits for Optical Receivers * Design of Integrated Circuits for Optical Communications Also: Analog Integrated Circuit Design by David Johns Analysis and Design of Analog Integrated Circuits by by Paul R. Gray (Author), Paul J. Hurst (Author), Stephen H. Lewis (Author), Robert G. Meyer (Author) For RF and microwave: The Design of CMOS Radio-Frequency Integrated Circuits by Thomas H. Lee Microwave Engineering by David M. Pozar For Power circuits ( switching convertors): Fundamentals of Power Electronics by Robert W. Erickson and Dragan Maksimovic For LDO design: Analog IC Design with Low-Dropout Regulators (LDOs) by Gabriel Rincon-Mora For Quantum electronics: Quantum Electronics by YARIV, AMNON For PLL: Phase Locked Loops 6/e: Design, Simulation, and Applications by Roland Best Also checkout: kzfaq.info/love/5GfjOd8g8HwJwus8dbaBAQ

Hi, Thanks for sharing your interesting experience and for conversation.

@@aduedc Sir, Thank you very much for taking your time to compile such a nice list! I am already familiar with ''Fundamentals of Power Electronics'' as my power electronics course was based on this book which was nice to see it as part of your list. However, I was not familiar with Razavi's books and many others which I will get into strayed away! Thanks again, I do appreciate it!

@@sambenyaakov Thanks for posting great lectures online. I learned lots of new things from you.

Thanks

Thank you!

Thanks

🙏🙂

Thanks

Thanks Hamid

Glad it helped. Thanks for comment

Thanks

Thank you 🙂

1k i too large. Typically 10\- 10Ohms are used since you need substantial current to feed to the gate. See: kzfaq.info/get/bejne/pcyPqZV_msybaGw.html

Thanks

Thanks for comment. Will try.

He got the integral by adding a circuit called an integrator to the simulation he ran. Both integrators and differentiators are critical to all sorts of electronic circuits and they are among the most basic. I recommend starting here: en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Differentiator en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Integrator

😊🙏

Indeed, this is an inverting stage . The best will be to judt add an inverter Swapping the signals not exactly inverting due to the dead time but if accounted for, it should be OK. If digital control us used, there is no problem to program as needed. Hold on to my forthcoming video on driver buffer/.

@@sambenyaakov looking forward to your new video. Inverting in program, wont it mess with desat or shoot through protection of the semiconductor?

Why two MOSFETs? Is your load referred to ground or connected to the 12V supply? You need isolation?

@@sambenyaakov I'm planning to use a regular 12V PSU to power both the LED strips and the ESP32, using a buck converter for the latter. I don't think I need isolation, but I do want to have the lowest Rdson possible to reduce power losses as much as possible, so that means driving the MOSFET from 12V. At first I thought about simply using an optocoupler but I'm not sure what's the minimum power it needs. Another option is simply driving the gate with an NPN transistor. With a 100k resistor on the collector, I'd have a constant wasted 120 uA (1.44mW) while the power MOSFET is off. I wonder if this could be reduced even further.

@@alejandroperez5368 Yo can use an N channel with 1Meg to 12V and a P channel from 12 volt to gate of power transistor with the gate of P connected to the drain of N. Then you need a 100kOhm from gate of power transistor to ground. This way the drive consumption is only at ON.

You need a bipolar power supply.

Have you seen this? kzfaq.info/get/bejne/eLiVrdiotqnFe30.html

@@sambenyaakov Yes, I watched this video, but just in it it was not indicated which "driver" can be used for such needs. If i buy a ready -made balancer, then there are all microchips without designation.

To which minute in the video are you referring to?

@@sambenyaakov 10:53, where you introduce the integration analysis for charge. You say that the total gate current is being integrated, and highlight the inductor with your mouse, but the behavioural source appears to be using I(R3) not I(L1).

Can you send me your simulation asc file and I will try to compare?

@@sambenyaakov Thanx a lot for the reply . Please find the file here drive.google.com/drive/folders/1w-YcKCiwDQ6JvGXpcbqH7Q59wAh1tVaa?usp=sharing

@@sambenyaakov dear professor could you see the simulation file

@@5minutething519 just noticed it. I will have a look as soon as I can

@@5minutething519 Can you please explain the question in more details? please use sby@bgu.ac.il

Indeed

@@sambenyaakov Is the dI/dt from the parasitic spike significantly faster than the dI/dt at the fastest edge of the normal gate drive transitions? More to the point, is that parasitic spike likely to cause radiative EMI of a greater amplitude than that of normal operation? Would it make sense to add a small inductor or ferrite bead in series with the gate drive resistors to moderate that dI/dt, or would that cause undesirable effects? I suppose with too much gate inductance/impedance the MOSFET will spend more time in the ohmic region, but I wonder if there is a "sweet spot".

This iz not a Zener. This is a symbol of a Scottky diode.

@@sambenyaakov Thanks professor

One is a soft turn off and one a Miller clamp

Thank you ave you done the presentation how the two Mosfet in parallel works ?
