From traditional industrial robotic systems to today’s latest collaborative robots (or “cobots”), robots rely on sensors that generate increasingly massive volumes of highly varied data.

It is hard to understate the promise of machine learning, the latest evolution of which, deep learning, has been called a foundational technology that will impact the world to the same degree as the internet, or the transistor before that.

Efficiency, protection, and integration are important design factors for compact DC-fed drives up to 60VDC. This reference design shows a three-phase inverter with nominal 48-V DC input and a 10-ARMS output current.  The 100-V intelligent three-phase gate driver DRV8350R with integrated buck converter and six 100-V NexFET™ power MOSFETs with ultra-low gate charge enable high efficiency of the power stage. 

The TPS55289 is a synchronous buck-boost converter that is optimized for converting battery voltage or adapter voltage into power supply rails. The TPS55289 integrates four MOSFET switches, providing a compact solution for USB power delivery (USB PD) application.

Greater factory connectivity and control is ushering in what has been named the fourth industrial revolution, after the earlier revolutions of steam power, assembly lines and early automation.
