Getting rid of noise of car battery/alternator

Thank you for the graph!
I will be using the ignition key switch to activate the circuit.
My circuit will be driving a load of up to 30A via a mosfet.
In this case, can/should I still add the 4700uf to your circuit as well?

Hi,

How much current is drawn by your board when the mosfet is not activated?
Are you using the brown-out detection of the microcontroller?

Best regards,

Luciano

I have not measured it, but it is very little current.
I am not using the brown out detection.

[Luciano]

Hi,

Build a prototype and try it out.
Enable the brown-out detection.

Best regards,

Thank you for the advice!

If you are still having trouble ty adding a choke in series with the incomming supply as well as capacitor on input and output of reg. Cars can be so noisey!
