On a tangent: acoustic noise.
My HP 32SII made terrible resistor noises. Bzzzzzzz like some sort of bad tinnitus. I could also hear it on an HP 48G when I placed my ear up to it.
Wouldn't it be possible to use SMT resistors and pot them in silastic to quiet them down?
- bsmith0 5y agoIt's probably coil whine? https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Electromagnetically_induced_acoustic_noise https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Electromagnetically_induced_ac...
- bcaa7f3a8bbc 5y agoUsually it's inductor coils and transformers, occasionally it's ceramic capacitors (all grades other than NP0 are microphonic, SMD or not), both problems are common in switched-mode power supplies, for example, powering the calculator LCD. I've never seen a singing resistor, very unlikely.
