Dear follow engineers.
I need your kind help.
I have a device which emits rf energy when touching the skin.
Because of this energy, the tissue heats up.
Now, there are 2 options:
1. If I place a non conductive lotion on the skin (high impedance), and then apply the rf energy, most of it will...
Thanks
Actually I am using a floating o scope measuring ac vrms on the resistor going to gnd.so I believe the measurement is ok.but I cant grasp from where this current is coming from...
Hi
The diagram was attached.
I am emitting an RF signal, approx 100 V rms on a 200 ohm load, in sequence to the load another 200 ohm resistor is connected to the wall gnd, and then I measure on that resistor the voltage to see how much current is flowing to gnd.
Hi Bill,
I have attached a schematics describing the test.
This is a medical device which is emitting a 1 MHZ RF signal via a handpiece.
According to the standard, the leakage current to earth must not exceed 50mA whilst I receive 65mA.
I have tried already to place a Toroid on the GND line...
Hi all,
I have a strange situation.when I test my device for patient leakage current, I fail the test hence there is leakage current flowing through gnd.
I tried to disconnect the gnd from device and retest and surprisingly it didn't change ..any idea?
Hi,
Thanks for the elaborated answer.
However, as I explained in my initial thread those 22n caps connected to gnd are suspected to leak into gnd, so I removed them along with the 0.5M ohms resistors, and that's when I got the ringing at the output, so someone put them there to smoothe out the...
Hi
I hope the last diagram is more understandable.would appreciate your feedback whether snabbers would contribute to eliminate the ringing and what would be the recommended values .do I place them in parallel to each switch instead of the 0 ohm res?
Thanks
Thanks for your insights.
I am attaching the "bigger" picture- in deed I cant see any snubbers around?

Hi Kieth,
I need to eliminate the leakage current as I cant pass the safety tests there's a leakage current coming from this circuit so I figured it had to do with either the resistors or caps.when I remove the caps I see this ripple, which is unwanted as well...
Hi Kieth
Thanks, I thought I had uploaded it.
Trying again...

Hi all,
I have a tense circuit which outputs a bi phasic square signal at 12.5 hz.
Apperantely it is creating a leakage current on the gnd line through the capcitors/resistors at the outputs which are connected to gnd.when u removed them, to keep the output floating, I receive a signal with...
Thanks all.
I have upoaded a few pictures to give you a beeter understandin of this issue.
the capsule needs to be exposed as it needs to touch a second surface during the process.
I have uploaded 4 pictures as follows:
1. Broken capsule residue on mediator...
Hi all
i hope fhis is the correct place for this kind of questions..
i have a project where i need to glue a capsule or a tablet which is round shaped to a round shaped plastic mediator.this whole assembly at the end will be clinked to an handle to preform a certain task.the problem i have is...
