At least half the equipment I see doesn't even have the Logo proportioned correctly despite the design being readily available online and easy to understand. Typically the C and E are too close together. Graham |

At home, I often use some screened audio leads which carry speech signals at about 100 to 200 mV. The leads may carry one or two signals (mono or stereo) and may be about 1m or 2m long. They are not balanced. Sometimes it's unavoidable but my audio lead has to pass near a PC and also about 6 inches below and in front of a CRT display. I want to avoid electrical noise interfering with the audio signal. (1) Would it help to clip some ferrite on the audio lead? If the interference is magnetic radiation from the CRT deflection and (at startup) the automatic degaussing coil, ferrite will not help at all. Wires in the presence of an AC magnetic field will pick up a voltage. The only hope is to lay the wires parallel to the magnetic flux lines, or get them out of the area. Only MASSIVE shielding with Mu-Metal shields will help, by conducting the flux lines in the shield. I suppose in theory totally enclosing the wires in a string of ferrite rings would be going in this direction, but separate ferrite rings are no comparison to a solid Mu-metal shield. Usually these are used to protect CRTs, photomultipliers and vidicons from stray magnetic fields, and they certainly do work. I've never seen it used to protect a cable. Putting a balanced-unbalanced transformer at each end of the cable would be another time-honored fix. Then you can have a truly balanced signal even with equipment that is unbalanced. Jon |

As I mentioned before, there are times when the cable can't easily take another route so I am interested in the better shielding appraoch which you mention. That's the problem! Shielded audio cable is good for eliminating electrostatic interference, which is a common cause of audio noise. But, it does practically NOTHING to eliminate low-frequency magnetic (inductive) interference. And, a computer monitor is exactly a source of magnetic radiation at several frequencies. The horizontal sweep and the switching power supply frequencies can be shielded to some extent, but it is not really practical. The vertical sweep (50 - 100 Hz) can't be shielded without insane effort, so the only real way out is to eliminate its influence on the circuit. That's why professional audio types use balanced circuits for mikes and all sorts of other low-level signals. Unfortunately, many web sites merrily say that almost any wire will do for a short run of audio cable. I am not so sure! in the presence of interference sources, clearly NOT true! (2) For a given max outer lead diameter of about 3mm (maybe 4mm), I guess some audio leads are better at intereference shielding than others. I'm in the UK; is there a type of decently shielded audio leads you might recommend without getting into really expensive stuff. (I can add the connectors.) Forget this diameter stuff. Unless the cables were FEET in diameter, and almost all solid copper, they'd have NO effect on 60 Hz magnetic fields. These fields penetrate conductors. It would be easier to try simply using longer cable(s) to avoid the problem spot(s). If you can route long cables away from the source (the CRT is by FAR the worst offender) that is the simplest approach. If not, a pair of transformers and a balanced, shielded cable should also work. But, the TRANSFORMERS need to be shielded! Many cheap audio transformers are NOT magnetically shielded, just put in a pot-metal box. if they are near any power transformers or CRTs, they can make the problem WORSE! If you think a single wire stretched in space can pick up a signal, how bad would 10,000 turns of wire be? Jon |

Flux lines are not *ever* straight lines, and in reality, they are ever expanding "shells" that emanate outward from the source, so even "parallel" wires would likely garner EMF. Though they can and are of course oriented so that they are mostly aligned along a single axis, it is not a good practice to think that noise abatement can be achieved by simply aligning the conductor with the flux. |

May circuit card utilize shielded channels that are merely a PCB conductor trace over a ground plane layer with a low, narrow "can" placed along its length. Since "cables" are typically meant for connection between larger hardware elements, they are also typically flexible, not rigid. A rigid interconnection is usually not referred to as a cable, but it is not much more than a hard encapsulation of a cable. So they are out there, they just are not called "cables" at that point. |

LCD backlight supplies can radiate a lot of junk. This is especially interesting in things like digital scopes and spectrum analyzers. A scope probe held near the screen of my Tek TPS2024 shows 600 mV p-p spikes at 664 KHz. Other scopes drool lots of EMI from around the edges of the plastic box near the LCD. John |

John Sure we did - "you". Second person singular is "thou". Only kidding. In Middle English we had a special letter, which looked like a "y" but with a dot above it. It was pronounced "th" and that is where the confusion started. In modern Icelandic they still have two versions of "th" - one voiced as in "this", and one unvoiced as in "thin". The voiced one is written "th", but the unvoiced one uses a letter called thorn, which looks like a lower case p, but with the vertical stroke extended upwards. So now you know....! d |

Standard English USED to have a second person SINGULAR, which was "thou." You was the the second person PLURAL but became used as singular due to either excessive politeness or widespread ignorance or something of that sort. Eventually, people couldn't stand the ambiguity, but instead of resurrecting the old thou, which everybody except readers of Shakespeare had forgotten how to use, they came up with new plural forms. Where I used to live in Texas, y'all was nominal second person plural, inclusive and polite, very much like 2nd person plural in many other languages. It is often used to address single persons when one intends to convey friendliness or politeness or inclusion in a group. One uses the singular and definite you when you intend something very definite as to person, like: "Billy, you get in here right now and clean up your mess." or "I love you." |
