This video is about GaN Systems Class D Amplifier and Power Supply eval kit. I'll show the boards that came in this Gan Systems eval and talk about the specs and why heat sinks are not needed.
This Class D amplifier uses GaN FETs from GaN Systems, and the AC/DC Power Supply also uses GaN FETs from GaN systems. The Power Supply is built in 2 stages; a PFC stage to make sure power factor is good and it helps with EMI, and the second stage is an LLC converter which provides two isolated voltage rails. Class D Amplifiers are very efficient and can be made much smaller than a Class A or A/B amplifiers of the same power. Also, this eval kit was provided free of charge - although I was not paid to do this video and the eval came with no strings attached.

Interview announcement with Mike Engelhardt - Inventor of LTspice and now QSPICE
Thanks to all those who watched my earlier announcement for QSPICE - this brought attention to the channel and this interview became possible.
LTspice is dead and QSPICE is born: https://youtu.be/u3xkLTgoQec

This video I'll show how adding a 2 way crossover affects the signal by looking at the spectrum with the PicoScope 4444 Oscilloscope. The name of the video is: 'Class D Amplifier meets 2-Way Speaker Crossover'. The Class D amplifier uses 2 of the TDA8954, one per channel.

We will compare two transformers to see how the input power compares. I'll use a 160 VA and a 250 VA transformer to see how much power I can get with a 250 VA transoformer.

This video 'Orchard Class D Amp with GaN FETs at 100 Watts, I'll show the Starkrimson Class D Amplifier module with GaN FETs. I'll run the power of this Class D amplifier up to 100 Watts and we will look at the temp and effeciency at 100 Watts. We will also look at the (spectrum) FFT and THD of tthe Starkrimson Ultra module at 100Watts. These are loaned to me and I'll have to return them, but I might have time for one more video.

This video is shows how to Graph Inductor Impedance with a GW Instek Scope. An Oscilloscope with the ability to do a Bode Plot is great for graphing Impedance. The GW Instek is a great scope to do this.

I’m shopping for a ARB function generator (relatively low cost compared to Tektronix, Wavetek, and Keysight) so I thought I’d share what I found at around 25 MHz for around $300 usd. I compare a Siglent SDG1000 series to a Rigol DG1000 series to a GW Instek 2000 series.

In this video 'Low Cost Siglent Oscilloscopes SDS1104X-E vs SDS1202X', I'll compare the SDS1104X-E 4 channel scope next to the SDS1202X 2 channel scope. The X-E series replaced the X series, but you might still find good deals on the X series, so I wanted to show the differences side by side.
