Single-channel isolated gate drivers in the 1ED301xMC121 series from Infineon are pin-compatible replacements for optocoupler-based designs. They replicate optocoupler input characteristics, enabling ...

In high-voltage power-supply designs, safety concerns require isolating the high-voltage input from the low-voltage output. Designers typically use magnetic isolation in a transformer for power ...

The traditional approach to designing an isolated DC to DC converter with synchronous rectification involves using optocouplers or pulse transformers for isolation, and mating them together with a ...

Deep in the heart of your latest project lies a little silicon brain. Much like the brain inside your own bone-plated noggin, your microcontroller needs protection from the outside world from time to ...
