Can anybody point me to some good books and/or references (online or otherwise) that discuss power and grounding distribution both for chassis/rack-level systems as well as PCB design? I have found that there are many "rules of thumb" such as the "sacrificial ground" thread that I often see used but rarely can I find somebody who can explain the science behind the rule such as is done on threads on this list. =20 Thanks, Chris ---------------------------------- Christopher McGrath ADIC Sr. Hardware Engineer Vx: (607) 241-4858 Fx: (607) 241-4952 eM: chris.mcgrath@xxxxxxxx www.adic.com ---------------------------------- ------------------------------------------------------------------ To unsubscribe from si-list: si-list-request@xxxxxxxxxxxxx with 'unsubscribe' in the Subject field or to administer your membership from a web page, go to: //www.freelists.org/webpage/si-list For help: si-list-request@xxxxxxxxxxxxx with 'help' in the Subject field List archives are viewable at: //www.freelists.org/archives/si-list or at our remote archives: http://groups.yahoo.com/group/si-list/messages Old (prior to June 6, 2001) list archives are viewable at: http://www.qsl.net/wb6tpu
