Reactive Design Troubleshooting
• Implement the Circuit on PCB
• Check the Performance
• Ship it !!!

Proactive Design Approach• Define Required Accuracy up Front
– Maximum weight – 2 lb (32 oz, 896 gm)– Resolution – 0.01 oz, 0.28 gm (~11.65-bits)– Accuracy – 0.02 oz, 1.4gm (~10.65-bits)
• Where Did all the Noise Come From?– Devices?– Emission or Radiation?– Poor PCB Layout?
• No More Revisions!!!!!!!
• Right the First Time

Where to Look - Overview
• Device Noise - Created by the devices
• Emitted Noise - Externally Injected
• Conducted Noise – In the Circuit Traces
![Page 12: Noise reduction techniques](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022081508/55645fd5d8b42acd408b4935/html5/thumbnails/12.jpg)
Where to Look – Device Noise
• Passive Devices– Resistor – Capacitors – Inductors– Ferrite Beads
• Active Devices– Operational Amplifiers – A/D and D/A Converters– Voltage References– Voltage Regulators – Switching Power Supply DCLOCK

Device Noise for our Circuit
• Device Noise - Created by the devices
– Resistors - Reduce Values were possible– Op amps - Use Lower-Noise Amplifiers
![Page 14: Noise reduction techniques](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022081508/55645fd5d8b42acd408b4935/html5/thumbnails/14.jpg)
Resistors and OpAMP Noise
• Resistors– All Resistors Generate Noise– Resistor Noise Called Johnson or Thermal Noise
– Ideal Noise = VRN = 4KTR(BW) {Vrms}
Ideal 1 k 4 nV / Hz

Radiated Noise: B-Field
• Sources (Transmitters)– On Board Transformers– Switching Regulators– External Noise
• Victims (Receivers)– Single-ended, High Impedance Inputs– Traces that a Form Circle
• Classic Example : Ground Loop• Signal Loop
– Long Traces (acts like an antenna)

System #2 Changes
• Device issues– Reduced resistors by 10 X– Replaced amplifier with lower noise version, OPA2335
• Radiation issues– Extra Circuits Removed– Loops Removed– Eliminated digital to analog trace coupling– Traces shorter

Where to Look – Conducted Noise
• Conducted Noise is in the Circuit Traces– Ground and Power
• 50 Hz or 60 Hz• Ground and Supply Current Return Paths
– Signal Path• Digital Switching • Noise generated by previous device
• Solutions to Conducted Noise– Replace noisy devices– Reorient emitters– Use a Continuous Ground Plane– Filter Signal traces– Filter Supply traces
![Page 27: Noise reduction techniques](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022081508/55645fd5d8b42acd408b4935/html5/thumbnails/27.jpg)
Discontinuous Ground Plane

Bypass Capacitor Types
• Filters Noise at High Frequency– Ceramic - Small Case size, Inexpensive, – Good Stability, Low Inductance
• C0G
• X7R
• Acts as a Charge Reservoir for Fast Changes– Tantalum Electrolytic - Small size, – Large Values, – Medium Inductance

Bypass Capacitors for Analog
• Assume: Supply = 5V ± 20 mV (all white noise)– To bring the noise to ± 1/4 LSB (± 0.61 mV)– PSR < - 30.3 dB

Noise in the Analog World
• The Noise will NEVER be Equal to Zero– Wise Layout Implementation– Devices Selection– Analysis of Environment
• Noise Reduction Rules of Thumb– Bypass all Components– Always use a Ground Plane– Current Return Path Evaluation
