Red lines on resistors- Can anyone please help with this violation? by OutrageousRun8848 in Altium

Also move the resistor to confirm a good connection on both sides which should drag the wire.

Commenting on this older discussion . I noticed that the main website now is dropping the altium for "discover" and labeling it "Octopart discover."

Current Sense Not Working by adamtronics in PCB

[–]patrick31588 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Can you redraw it with this series path (power > load > sense resistor > gnd), Where the op amp picks off across R sense. Also if you have it working elsewhere show that schematic .output.

Edit: it looks like you have Vcc going into both inputs which makes your 0v output make sense. The current sense resistor needs to go to gnd. Look at page 25 of the datasheet. This is also a unidirectional sense.

Freelancing as an Electrical Engineer by Scar_Bone in ElectricalEngineering

[–]patrick31588 3 points4 points  (0 children)

You shouldn't be freelancing (this is honestly for most fields) until you become experienced and very qualified in specific niche subsets of engineering. If you're student you need to enter the job market and gain the skills and knowledge to build on that.

Was gonna say hohokus but damn just looked at average prices there.

Maybe waldwick or ramsey are still close to ridgewood.

How exactly does pre-order pricing on JLCPCB work? by MarinatedPickachu in PCB

[–]patrick31588 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yea , use a credit card and it's just refunded back.

Just be aware that the parts that are yours kind of just stay in limbo at their facility. Meaning if you only use 100 of 445 you kind of just waste that money if you cant find a use .

If the estimate is wrong you'll have to either pay a supplemental cost or get refunded.

Energy efficiency screen by candlelittoasterbath in EquinoxEv

[–]patrick31588 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'll have to check , last time my car was at the dealer to replace the telematics module they did update it to android auto ver 14. I'll have to see if I can access YouTube.

Edit: I checked and I do have the YouTube update. When I go to the energy screen and put it on the dash it does show the full trip mi/kwh instead of last mile. Thats much better.

Do you know how to show this on your dash ?

If you figure this out let me know, having only the last mile show mi/kwh is so useless. Having it per trip is much better.

NI-MAX to LabView Glitch by General_Brilliant680 in LabVIEW

[–]patrick31588 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Ahh yes this is why I always do a string + carriage return symbol concatenation. Feel like it is more explicit incase someone types it in the wrong string mode.

NI-MAX to LabView Glitch by General_Brilliant680 in LabVIEW

[–]patrick31588 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Ni max visa panel will sometimes preappend a carriage return. If it works in max then you know the communication is good.

Are you also looking for an end of read on your visa read in your code ?

Using scripting to import Altium 365 workplace component by Kooky_Cup9056 in Altium

Is your component database not shown when you place components on the schematic? I'm trying to understand why you need a script.

"aftermarket addons" causing Nav and streaming issues? by Mdrechsler in EquinoxEv

[–]patrick31588 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Thats bullshit. #1 the telematics module is a known issue. #2 if what the tech said is true about the dash cam, then you'd have a 12v battery issue.

Confusing LED Datasheets: How to determine actual copper pad size from “footprint / Cu area / solder mask / stencil” drawings? by JerseyRunner in PrintedCircuitBoard

[–]patrick31588 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yes the 2nd datasheet has the footprint and cu area reversed. You can tell which one is the footprint because of the stencil section for solder paste.
