Have you heard about biasing a diode? This way diodes for sure cause high distortion. And dont drive them over its full range.

Why bias them? Then they'd lose their stabilising capabilities. The idea is for them to work in the most nonlinear part of their characteristics. I agree they shouldn't be driven much more than their max range (0.7V)

And BTW its "kHz" and not "Khz". You might laugh about, but its important.

I see this "Khz" now for years from you and i get eye cancer if i see this one more time! ;P

It is Kilo-Hertz !!!! Wow, i thought he meant Kill hurz

E.g In computer science "K" is for 1024 and in electronic its 1000. "Mf" is what? Mega femto? Or Mega farad? Or milli farad? Its important to keep confusion low! I like "Kill hurz" as new unit ;-)

Only m and M matter. K or k is potato potahto. I know it's kHz but it really doesn't matter. I write it differently every time. I pay special attention to m and M

hurz

Hz and not hZ. kV and not Kv. Mm and not mM. Vs and not vS. Nm and not nM. And you still think it doesn't matter LOL

thebugger

Well it doesn't. It only matters with m and M. K doesn't have a k counterpart, no other abbreviation does. So if you're talking to a trained engineer or a technician it wouldn't matter what abbreviation you use it'll still mean the same to him/her.

I deeply agree with thebugger it really doesn't matter k or K, there is actually no problem if you confuse between kilo and Kilo, and I'm pretty sure that hurz didn't get it as 1024 Hz.........

hurz

Right selman i didn't get it as 1024 because im aware of what young and unexperienced engineers are doing for mistakes.

thebugger

Yeah, anyone will get it. Even untrained engineers wil read Na as nanoamperes if they are shown the context. I mostly write it that way because my keyboard has an autocorrection, and it automatically corrects all abbreviations.

hurz

Cheap excuse "kHz" auto corrected to "Khz"? To see what i mean, you need probably 10 more years in electronic. I like the clean structured way you draw circuits. I wish you would take the same care for units and its size. Keep it up.

thebugger

Yes circuits i like to build graphically pleasant, but units are not something i pay much attention to. I mean when i draw something on hand and i have to describe its parameters it'll always be kHz or mV or mA etc., but here i don't pay much attention because i know that the people here are at least remotely familiar with electronics, and as i said mostly the autocorrection screws it up for me.

hurz

I wish i could agree to " the people here are at least remotely familiar with electronics, and as i said mostly the autocorrection screws it up for me." I guess 99.9% of people here do not know the difference of "s" and "S". Google it

hurz - "bad boy. what did i tell you, didn't i say it is K not k" thebugger - "What do you mean papa both sound the same". hurz - "Do it before i Bust your ass !!!!!!". thebugger - "mamaaaaaaaaaa"

hurz

Right :p

A large S would stand for Siemens right? (transconductance). What does the low case s stand for? As i said, some have difference others don't. Everyone will know I'm talking about kilohertz when i write Khz, but case sensitive units like mili (m) and mega (M) i pay special attention to ;)

hurz

Milli and mega are not units! They are quantities! "Hz" or "S" is a unit.

thebugger

10 years ago

Yeah you know what i mean :D

hurz

10 years ago

No, i don't know what you mean. I can try to interpret it and correct it for myself and i can have the hope this is what you mean. But i can't be sure. So be precise in use of quantities and units and I do not have to interpret WHAT YOU PROBABLY MEAN!

thebugger

Loom you also sometimes can't exactly explain what you mean but it's no problem for me because i know english perfectly and i know electronics too, so it's no problem. You on the other hand seem to have problem with everything :D

hurz

We all make mistakes, but you said "it doesn't matter" if you mix units quantities and its capitalization! That's sloppiness with intent!

thebugger

10 years ago

No, intent means on purpose. That's the least on purpose. It's unintentional ;)

hurz

10 years ago

Yes, intent on purpose, exactly! For me it looks like sloppiness with intent! Or is it, you are inexperienced and can't know it better.

thebugger

Sloppiness maybe, on intent hardly ;)
