can u make a separate video about semi-conductor i am very much confused o this topic

[@mohammedsaad3503]

so when u order, can u get thw components also from them?

[@calpardo]

@@mohammedsaad3503 jlcpcb has another company named lcsc. In the ordering section on jlcpcb.com, you can upload the BOM file, which contains the components that you need. In addition, you can order your pcb with the components soldered on them according to your schematic file.

Back in time, I became independent. I started my own business designing electronic test equipment, to test assembled PCB circuits. But I was so poor that I had to use freeware to do the job. I had to create PCB's in the process but the freeware PCB design software only allowed a limited amount of components. It also allowed you to create your own components. So I would design a portion of the PCB layout, and then due to having reached the maximum amount of components allowed, resistors, capacitors, transistors, etc, I created a new component which in truth was a combination of all the components used so far, and their specific layout. Yep, when you are poor, you find a way around everything. Anyhow, one company was so impressed with my work that they hired me full time. Eventually I was also designing high voltage power supplies for neon sings as well as designing the test equipment to test them at the assembled PCB level. Not bad for a grade ten dropout. I had no education in electronics, but was self taught.

[@azeemhassanch]

Thank you for the video. While there are countless videos on KZbin, I’ve noticed a common challenge: many channels don’t teach circuits in a way that’s accessible for beginners. It’s hard to grasp why specific components are used. For example, if we try to understand one circuit and then compare it to another with similar functionality, the differences in components can be confusing. Why does one circuit have more components than the other? Take Apple chargers, for instance-what makes them so much more expensive than other mobile chargers? What’s the "magic" behind them? Another issue is that very few creators on KZbin explain circuit design in detail. They don’t provide practical examples or reasoning behind their choice of components, like why they opted for a diode, capacitor, etc., instead of other alternatives. It would be incredibly valuable to learn the art of transforming a basic circuit into a high-end, quality design.

[@tinytonymaloney7832]

That was a brilliant video, I love that PCB design software. I used to do it by hand in the mid 80's and the tapework as well all by hand. We made the artwork twice the size so it was easier to tape then the original would be reduced to half size by copier then ready for printing to PCB. That was the best job I ever had, I even say that over 30yrs later. . All we were given was a circuit design from some big company on a piece of paper, I even had a small diagram on a piece of card. We had to design everything ourselves, I loved it. I lost interest in computers years ago but I would love to learn that system you have there, its brilliant. Good work 😊😊

[@PauDit]

[@UntilIWinIt]

The explanation was outclass. You motivated me to design my own voltage regulator like you did. Thanks man. God bless you

[@freeenergytransformer5842]

Designing a voltage regulator is not as hard as it seems. Especially, if you have a basic understanding of circuits and some electrical components. After watching a few online tutorials, I decided to give it a try. The end result was a functioning voltage regulator circuit that met my needs. I must admit that I was motivated to design my own voltage regulator after watching one of your videos. Your explanation was outclass.

[@JoeJ-8282]

Wow, this is very thorough! It's gotta be like about 1000 individual steps or so and buttons to push and stuff to do on a computer, to actually build this whole design from nothing, and since I'm not able to comprehend computer stuff and/or how or why they do what all they do, I was honestly completely lost as soon as you started doing stuff on the computer screen instead of on that breadboard, however IF I actually wanted to build this exact thing myself, it looks like I could just watch this entire video again from the 6 minute mark, (after getting a computer AND having someone help me download the software), and then just watch EACH individual step for a few seconds, then pause the video after each step and then do exactly that same thing on the computer, until I finally did ALL of the steps in this video and this project was completely done, which is kinda cool when you think about having that level of detail in a KZbin video!... If I was to do it that way then this whole project would probably take me (only) at least a few weeks to do exactly like this myself, but that's still WAY faster than I would take to build something like this completely by hand, which I know would be many months for sure!... I just wish I personally knew a friend or somebody who had this exact kind of setup and could show me first hand, step by step, how to do it, but unfortunately I don't have or even know anyone like that who could. Nobody I know who has a computer even cares about building electronic stuff from scratch, they all just go out and buy a pre-made device for whatever they need. So I am the only "electronics nerd" I know, I just don't understand computers at all, because they are way too complicated for me. The closest thing I ever get to operating a computer is my cellphone, (which I am watching this video on and writing this comment on, and is plenty complicated enough for me already, lol!), but everything else electronics-wise, I do and (try to) build totally by hand, old-school style, because that's the only way I've ever been able to understand. All of this newfound "computer" stuff certainly LOOKS cool to at least watch what amazing things that can be done on a KZbin video, and it seems like it might could even make building stuff much quicker vs. totally by hand, (maybe even easier also, (?), but ONLY IF you know exactly what buttons to push and in what order to push them on the computer itself), but all of that is way above my head unless I have someone else show me and help me every step of the way.

[@EngineeringMindset]

Or, you just download the free file, upload it to the pcb website and order the board to your house without having to learn to design it

[@JoeJ-8282]

@@EngineeringMindset Yeah, that's all much easier said than done for me. I already can design circuits like this on paper and with a pencil, and on a breadboard like you showed, so understanding and designing a relatively simple circuit like this, that's not the problem. My issue is that I really have NO CLUE how computers work, OR how to "download" software, and definitely not how to actually USE said software. I don't even own a computer, (as close as I get to that is my cellphone, which I saw this video on and I'm writing this comment and reply on), but any computer stuff beyond that is just way too complicated for me to understand! I'm totally "old-school", and I can work on things just fine with a hammer and a screwdriver, (or a soldering iron), but when it comes to using a computer and knowing exactly which buttons to push on it, and when to push said buttons and in what order to make it actually do something useful, I am totally lost! I honestly don't even know how to do ANYTHING on a computer, not even turn one on or off properly... I'm already almost a senior though, so I doubt I'll ever really understand all of this modern computer stuff anyway, so unless I had someone else who already knew this exact thing and who did it themselves already could show me step by step, I'll have to just continue doing all of my electronic tinkering by hand in my garage workshop... But that's OK too I think, because at least I still (try) to fix things that break or wear out... Most people nowadays are just of the totally wasteful mindset of "Just throw it away and buy a new one!", and that kind of thinking really disgusts me, so at least I'm one who is still actually interested in how basic electronic and electrical stuff works. I don't personally know anyone else who even cares at all about how electronic/electrical stuff works, unfortunately. Everyone else I know, (including all of the younger kids I know), is just of the "throwaway society", which isn't too good for the future of the planet and future generations, in my opinion!

[@aplacetoimproveteslacoilin3721]

you will learn how to make a 5V regulator using capacitors, LM7805 regulator and Schottky diode. This circuit works by converting the unregulated voltage from the battery into a regulated 5V output. The capacitors smooth out the voltage fluctuations, while the LM7805 regulator ensures a stable 5V output. The Schottky diode protects the circuit from reverse polarity connection and also increases efficiency.

[@freeenergytransformer5842]

In this video, we're going to take a look at a voltage regulator circuit. This is a very important circuit, and it's used to maintain a constant voltage output despite changes in the input voltage. This is useful for things like powering microcontrollers, or other sensitive electronics. The basic principle of the voltage regulator circuit is simple. We have an input voltage, which is applied to the Vin pin of the regulator. The regulator then outputs a constant voltage on the Vout pin. This voltage is regulated by the feedback resistor Rfb. The regulation of the output voltage occurs because of the way that transistors Q1 and Q2 are connected. Transistor Q1 acts as an amplifier, while transistor Q2 acts as a switch. When Vin is greater than Vout, transistor Q1 is turned on and transistor Q2 is turned off.

[@freeenergytransformer5842]

A voltage regulator circuit is a great way to ensure a steady flow of power to your project. However, if you're using an AC adapter to power your project, you'll need to use a bridge rectifier to protect your regulator from polarity reversal. Without a bridge rectifier, your regulator may be damaged if the polarity of the input voltage changes.

[@Ai-vq8rj]

@@SFORSANDEEP you need a 2510 bridge rectifier at the input side and a variable resistor or potentiometer at the output side

[@dancoulson6579]

Making custom PCBs has changed so much since when I was younger. I remember being 12 years old and I had to hand draw the tracks with an etch resist pen, onto copper clad board. Then I would etch the copper, using a spare plastic takeaway tub, filled with ferric chloride. Finally, I'd drill the PCB with a hand operated drill and a .8mm bit. Then I would use engine de-greasant to remove the remaining etch resist pen ink from the copper tracks. Then the board was ready for soldering. I didn't have the luxury of the green solder mask, or the professional white text. It was often difficult, because I had to mentally reverse the circuit, as I was drawing the copper track layout on the bottom side of the board. Often times, I'd get it wrong.

[@sonnyfung5135]

There should be a heatsink attached with the voltage regulator though.

[@SeersantLoom]

Remember that W=V*I. Meaning, if you have higher voltage input (say 24V) but output is only 5V and you're drawing only 0.2A then the linear voltage regulator has to dissipate about ( 24V - 5V ) * 0.2A = 3.8W as waste heat. It will get quite hot quite fast. Times like that - consider if buck regulator would be better option, if not for the noise/EM interference that accompanies it. I would turn the voltage regulator 90 degrees and place it near edge. Another possibility would be placing it flat on the other side (there are more options). It all depends on how you are planning to connect it to the heatsink and/or how much heat you need to dissipate.

[@FullCircleTravis]

Based on the datasheet, at 25°C ambient, you can draw 6.58W. That's 1.32A. Keep in mind that's at 25V. If your input was 12V or 9V, which is typical, you can easily achieve 1.5A without a heat sink. However, I would use a heat sink to dissipate heat through a sealed case to reduce heat building up, which might affect other components.

@@Infiniti25 oh, i forgot to state that i'm already subscribed a long time and follow every video. it really was a very crazy coincidence

[@hirad3539]

This happens to me all the time,i think about a subject and i will see it on KZbin 😮

[@SinnSabs]

It is completely defined and detailed. Big thanks..

Coming from Audio Engineering a Voltage Regulator is a Hard Limiter

[@adamsonlinearrayspeakersha87]

ok

[@gregjones3660]

How hard of a limiter? Semi, half mast, or full mast?

[@purwoerdiantoro1245]

Good explanation...easy to understand👍👍👍

[@Infiniteknowledgenikhilrathod]

First 👍🏻

Well done

Back in time, I became independent. I started my own business designing electronic test equipment, to test assemble PCB circuits. But I was so poor that I had to use freeware to do the job. The freeware PCB design software only allowed a limited amount of components. It also allowed you to create your own components. So I would design a portion of the PCB layout, and then due to having reached the maximum amount of components allowed, resistors, capacitors, transistors, etc, I created a new component which in truth was a combination of all the components that I had used so far. Yep, when you are poor, you find a way around everything. Anyhow, one company was so impressed with my work that they hired me full time. Eventually I was also designing high voltage power supplies for neon sings as well as designing the test equipment to test them at the assembled PCB level. Not bad for a grade ten dropout. I had no education in electronics, but was self taught.

Check out NEW resistor video, everything covered! ➡️ kzbin.info/www/bejne/eorGfXl-nLt2pJI

[@ricardogutierrez4768]

Loved the video, but this should be titled "how to use a voltage regulator". This did nothing to explain how a voltage regulator functions and operates, mostly "it does this and here's how to use it" which is still valuable but a misleading title.

[@rachelteller9582]

Yeah buddy i totally agree with you i thought he is gonna design a new one and build a prototype then test it and show us. This is also a great video apart from misleading title

[@The2Coolest2]

Yeah, I thought he was gonna describe the internals of the IC, not how to connect an IC

[@chosanbo]

this provides an amount of knowledge equivalent to 5 years of my uni courses.

I wanted to point out a few things wrong with this PCB. First off, those traces will not stand the current without a significant temperature rise. Unless you meant for the traces to act like fuses then I would increase the width. Next, the diode you use for reverse polarity protection doesn't have much better vf at the currents you were using. While you did (at least I think) purposely choose a diode with low leakage current the vf is the thing you want to focus on in this circuit and the diode doesn't have that great of a vf. And, why not just use a p-channel MOSFET for reverse polarity protection? Furthermore, having the capacitors right next to the regulator probably isn't good for them. If you can even reach current levels that generate a substantial amount of heat without the traces burning out. Please make a new video that teaches people good design ideas and not just use autorouter.

You must be a professor at a university. How smooth is your explanation!!!.

[@jzero4813]

I don't think putting a 7805 on a circuit board can really be called "designing a voltage regulator". You bought a voltage regulator and put some filter caps on it.... poorly chosen ones, badly laid out, and with no heatsink, which means you get maybe a third of the current that the 7805 can support. This is a bit like going out and buying a motherboard and CPU, putting them into a box, and claiming you've "designed" a computer.

[@LaxmikantKachhap]

You explained this better than all the professors in my supposedly "TOP" University. Have always been interested in these but got impotent people to learn from sadly.

[@abrarshaikh2254]

Nowadays, linear voltage regulator becoming obsolete, switch mode is present and future

[@aramabwbakr8300]

You're best teacher I've ever seen, please continue and make a video about more complex PCBs...regards

[@chadroth3117]

Charging a phone this way is disgustingly inefficient. You need to mention that a buck converter would have worked much better for this application.

[@zacchol9252]

it's an outstanding tutorial everything is sound thump up bro.....i did it 20 yrs ago n it came up straight away well done cant wait what else I will discover.

[@cgi-b6v]

Great shot of the led burning out 65s into the video. I totally agree that the bonding wires melted due to the high current, but someone who didn't know any better might come to the conclusion that the wire was disintegrated by the intense green death ray.

[@thomas_saved_by_yeshua]

In awe and amazement... Although I'm still in the model A technology... I understood everything you said and am blown away at the computer designing. That's like SR71 advancements to me. 🚲↗️🚗↗️🚀........↗️
