Hi,
I have problem with my custom PCB design, where i have 2 power supplies.
One is a 230/12V AC/DC converter that i use to power a relay and a measurment op-amp (MP-LD05-23B12R2)
and the other one is a 3.3V switching power supply to power an esp32. (AP1509)
Here is the circuit:
I am running into the issue that the 3.3V switcher causes a lot of noise and power swing on the 12V,
And also that noise from the 12V relay switching, causes the noise to translate to the 3.3V line
If i disconect the 3.3V AP1509, the 12V power supply works very well, with only 40mV voltage variation due to noise.
But when i connect the 3.3V switcher back to the 12V it causes up to 340mV voltage swing due to noise, which is too much, since that translates to 340mV change on my op-amp that measures analog voltage with 60mV precision.
I have also measured the period of the voltage spikes above and found out its 6.66us (ignore the 7.9us in the above picture) , which translates to 150kHz, which is what the AP1509 switcher operates on, comfirming my theory.
The 3.3V psu only draws an extra 40mA from the 12V psu.
What can i do to filter the noise coming from the ap1509 and what can i do to eliminate the voltage swings and noise that also comes from the 12V line as a result of the relays turning on and off during opearation? (this causes the noise to translate to the 3.3V line, which sometimes freezes my esp32).
I have already tried adding and RC, LC filters and a bigger 3400uF capacitor, but that did not help the situation at all.
