Overview

What is an input stage?The input stage of an electronic system is the interface between the system's functional circuitry and the external power supply. Having a proper input stage is the first step toward a high-performance, reliable electronic system which is compliant with electromagnetic regulations.In this course, a professional hardware designer will guide you through the nitty-gritty details to consider when it comes to inrush current, you will learn the best way to provide reverse polarity protection for different kinds of systems and finally, you will learn how to design the input filter to comply with conducted emissions electromagnetic regulations.Teaching style The course consists of short videos over a slide presentation. A PDF version of the presentation is provided so the student can import it into their preferred note-taking app to follow along with the explanations (OneNote works marvels!) with an active learning approach to maximize the experience.AudienceElectrical and electronics engineers who are already designing systems and want to increase their knowledgeElectrical and electronics engineers who want to pivot toward a hardware design roleLeading electrical and electronics engineering students who want to target their career toward hardware designContentsThis course focuses on three topics related to electronics input stage design.Inrush current We will learn what kinds of systems can cause an inrush current We will discuss what the impact of the inrush current is in the systemWe will cover most inrush current countermeasuresWe will go through several case studies analysing example systems and deciding whether or not the inrush current is concerning and in case it is, we will propose fitting solutions
