I have a simple qusetion regarding how to interpret Shannon's limit. I am looking at this for fun and am not a system/theoretical engineer so please excuse my errors as I'm sure there a lot. I believe Shannon's limit can be written as:
Capacity =log2(1+Br/Wn * Eb/No)
where Br is...
Thanks for all your replies. I really appreciate it.
Regarding isolation, I know it is an important consideration. However, I've seen some AC charger circuits that use a transformerless design, although I'm not sure if they are actually used in commercial AC chargers. Is isolation an...
I have been wondering why people don't use a buck converter (switched regulator) to go straight from 120V to a lower DC value, like 12V or 5V. Most conventional power supplies use a transform to go to a lower intermediate voltage and then use a switched regulator to get the desired regulated...
