Abstract: This tutorial discusses proper printed-circuit board (PCB) grounding for mixed-signal designs. For most applications a simple method without cuts in the ground plane allows for successful ...

This application note covers some basic rules associated with grounding techniques in high speed circuits. The paper covers both grounding in printed circuit boards and wiring harnesses. Electronics ...

When grounding exposed non-current-carrying metal parts of motors and controller frames to prevent a voltage above ground in the event of accidental contact between energized parts and frames, what ...

AN estimated 58 people lose their life each week as a result of electric shock. In an electrical system, the grounding system is the primary protection against electrical shock hazards. It provides a ...

Always test circuits for the absence of voltage before placing personal protective grounds. Just because you know it's de-energized doesn't mean that it really is. Personal protective grounds go by ...

Shocks and electrocutions linked to exposed and publicly accessible energized electrical infrastructure are rare events, but this hidden danger that can lurk undetected for long periods is keeping ...
