Hello, We are testing the power supply (VRM 8.5 compatible) for our processor board. We have a split ground - the power supply ground and the digital ground shorted at one single point with a 0 ohm resistor. There is no signals crossing over and I do not think there are any loops. The voltage difference between the 2 grounds is very large. The CRO shows a p-p of 2V when measuring between the 0 ohm resistor. What could be the reason for this and what could the remedies. Thanks and Regards Ramana Rao Rayudu Real Time Systems Group Centre For Development Of Advanced Computing No.1 Old Madras Road, Byappanahalli Bangalore - 38, India Ph 91-80-5244059 ------------------------------------------------------------------ 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
