PCB design#

General consideration, power limit, path width, …

Two resonant tanks will be built. One with low nominal quality factor and one with high nominal quality factor.

High Q#

Explain what was done in the lab, y compris les modifications. STILL NOT WORKING (voltage transformer is the bottle neck)

Make some consideration to improve the design (grid of capacitors)

Low Q#

Consideration and working components that are mounted

Generalities#

  • Power input/output: HDR 2x10 (half connector per polarity)

  • Sensing SMA connectors + HDR 1x2 (for oscilloscope: before the 50 Ohm resistance) GND of the SMA connector on the FPGA is connected to the common ADC ground. i.e. can create a common ground plate on the PCB.

Note on the mounted components#

Both

  • wire jump for current probe: distance is good, diameter could be reduced. 1.5mm is the wire diameter. Cable code: 3.5mm (outer diam) MZ-3.2/100 RS: 803-4262 | style 1015

  • cable from the power transformer: diam x.x mm

  • hole for current transformer: diam 3mm
