Noise Thermal Voltage

AI Thread Summary

The discussion focuses on the thermal noise voltage generated by three resistors connected in series. Thermal noise, also known as Johnson-Nyquist noise, is a fundamental phenomenon in resistors due to their temperature. The voltage noise can be calculated using the formula Vn = √(4kT/R), where k is Boltzmann's constant, T is the temperature in Kelvin, and R is the total resistance. The link provided offers additional insights and calculations related to this topic. Understanding thermal noise is crucial for designing low-noise electronic circuits.

Nice link, arunsjunk! Welcome to the PF.

Thread '3-terminal device external modeling'

Very basic question. Consider a 3-terminal device with terminals say A,B,C. Kirchhoff Current Law (KCL) and Kirchhoff Voltage Law (KVL) establish two relationships between the 3 currents entering the terminals and the 3 terminal's voltage pairs respectively. So we have 2 equations in 6 unknowns. To proceed further we need two more (independent) equations in order to solve the circuit the 3-terminal device is connected to (basically one treats such a device as an unbalanced two-port...

Thread 'Weird near-field phenomenon I get in my EM simulation'

I recently made a basic simulation of wire antennas and I am not sure if the near field in my simulation is modeled correctly. One of the things that worry me is the fact that sometimes I see in my simulation "movements" in the near field that seems to be faster than the speed of wave propagation I defined (the speed of light in the simulation). Specifically I see "nodes" of low amplitude in the E field that are quickly "emitted" from the antenna and then slow down as they approach the far...
