Subject: [SI-LIST] Caps between "isolated grounds"?
I was looking at some designs and found different ground symbols connected
by capacitors. Can anyone explain why this might be done? Everything I've
seen or heard says this is a bad thing (I would connect them directly), but
I want to be sure I'm not missing something. I think there are some A/D
devices which have specific guidelines for separating digital and analog
grounds, but I don't think they'd be connected by caps.
Thanks,
Jeff Loyer
