layout proposal #1
Comments
Hi! Thanks for taking the time to review the project. 1 - The initial design was looking for 1A max of output, which the NCE70T360D transistor should handle with no problem. But I may have missed something here. |
About the image you sent, looks more compact, I would need to check the clearances. |
Another info, I'll probably replace the AVR with an ESP32 or something with RS485 and ethernet(Like WT32-ETH01), I've been using these lately and they are pretty good. |
1 - The initial design was looking for 1A max of output, which the NCE70T360D transistor should handle with no problem. But I may have missed something here. p.s. ESP32-C3 (in SMD mini version) is amazing. cheap, fast n rich. |
I avoided populating the bottom side for easier assembly. |
mosfet in smd package cheaper. so needs to review layout again |
1 - Well, in my use case 1A is good enough, but what you said makes sense, will work on that.
The difference in this case is negligible. |
I was looking to replace the drivers with an external board, with a single or double driver per board, this way, I can easily replace drivers or build boards with fewer drivers. Create like a mainboard and driver boards. |
NCE70T360K looks the same in specs. We may need a large copper area in the bottom layer connected through a via to help dissipate both mosfets. |
The connector should be moved down, it is above the capacitor. These connectors are large. |
I need to test how much current these will handle because we are using a Mosfet driver, which should drive it pretty fast, we may not have that much loss. |
"I was looking to replace the drivers with an external board, with a single or double driver per board, this way, I can easily replace drivers or build boards with fewer drivers. Create like a mainboard and driver boards." |
The idea is to have dumb power boards, in case some mosfet burns or something. But without logic, the main board with only zero-cross detection, and a connector with multiple outputs, like 12, and you can connect these to each output board. But need some thinking, because of the noise, etc... |
I don't believe SSR would work. Its turn-on and off time is too long. |

"I don't believe SSR would work. Its turn-on and off time is too long." hmmm, you are right |
esp32-c3 is cheaper than 1 mosfet driver. no need to separate design. but power supply should be move outside |
maybe plug 24v auxial power supply to board and:
|
The idea to have separate drivers boards is to replace te failed ones. |
Not this noise I'm talking about. Imagine that you have a long connection between the trigger and the driver. This kind of noise... |
I see no point in having different power supplies. BOM increases, manufacturing cost, etc. The idea having multiple channels is easy of installation, manufacturing etc. |
Yep, nice idea. |
Buddy, I hope you are been sarcastic because the link was a phishing spam... |
for more compact and better cooling/power commutation needs to:
p.s. needs to recalculate or recheck all clearences
