Separation between charging circuits and TNV-3(UL60950)

Hi, All For cordless phone, in most cases, the charging circuits are touchable. So based on 6.2.2.2, we need apply 1000Vac between the charging circuits and TNV-3. Usually it'll fail if there is no isolation transformer after Tip and Ring. Most of the manufacturers don't want to add an

It clearly covers the intent of the requirement -- the customer has information regarding what regulations and standards the product meets in an official document published by the manufacturer. The authenticity of the manual is for all practical legal purposes binding on the company. A

I'll take a guess at the terms. I suspect the term thermal impedance may be misapplied. There is a rather lose parallel. Electrical resistance is a scalar quantity. Electrical impedance is a vector quantity. In a strict sense the impedance to heat transfer is a 3D quantity that can be

Hi Rocky, Article 210 of the NEC lists the requirements for branch circuits and associated receptacles. Table 210.21(B)(2) shows the receptacle load limits and section 210.23 discusses the permissible loads in more detail. On a related topic, I recently had a discussion with a colleague

By process of elimination the failure you describe could be caused by either ground bounce or induced current. In this case the negative polarity rules out ground bounce so you are looking for an induced current path. This is probably some lightly loaded input. Since you say that some ASICs

There's a temptation to troubleshoot these problems by applying bandaids until one works. They're usually the wrong bandaids, and it takes a long time to learn which one is right, if any. I've found it useful instead to inject short pulses directly into suspect devices and traces using a pulse

Ravinder, Try putting small (around 22pF) capacitors to ground on resets, interrupts, and other asynchronous inputs to the ASIC, very close to the ASIC. I would be especially suspicious of any signals that run close to the card edge or have significant loop areas between the signal and return.
