In modern offline AC/DC power solutions, programmability and adaptive control offer the flexibility and intelligence needed by smart home devices to better interface with their power systems. In these systems, a secondary side MCU is typically not capable of starting a system without the use of a separate bias power supply. A new reference design from Microchip Technology claims to have solved this problem using the MCP1012 high voltage auxiliary...

In stock at distributor Mouser Electronics are the OLI300, OLS300, OLI500, and OLS500 high-speed optocouplers from Skyworks Solutions.

STMicroelectronics' 0.5 A (typ.) industrial digital output expansion board allows the evaluation of the fast, safe, and efficient driving performance and comprehensive diagnostic capabilities of the smart IPS161HF high-side switch in industrial applications allowing the implementation of Safety Integrity Level guidelines.

Phototransistor-type optocouplers are available for the first time from Würth Elektronik. The WL-OCPT Series 816 coplanar design optocouplers consist of an infrared LED on the input side and a phototransistor on the output side.

When sitting in a car, the engine noise we experience is something completely normal. After all, the engine compartment contains a machine with moving parts in it. In fact, manufacturers of cars and other products actually have entire research departments dedicated to tinkering around with (and creating) pleasurable sound experiences. However, as Rolf Horn, Applications Engineer at Digi-Key Electronics explains, it is a different situation with s...

Power Integrations has announced the production release of the InnoSwitch3-AQ, an AEC-Q100-qualified flyback switcher with integrated 750V MOSFET and secondary-side sensing.

The polyimide film and insulation barrier of Broadcom gate drive optocouplers proves robust even during catastrophic failures like the IGBT destructive tests presented in this paper. Although the gate driver boards were damaged, the gate drive optocouplers were able to pass partial discharge and high voltage tests, providing reinforced insulation, protecting the systems and users.Read more here.

An Automotive Grade phototransistor optocoupler that combines a high current transfer ratio (CTR) range from 50% to 600% with a low forward current of 1mA in the compact SOP-4 mini-flat package has been introduced by Vishay Intertechnology.

Electric vehicles, large-scale battery storage stacks, home automation, industrial, and telecom power all require converting high voltages to ±12V, where dual polarity rails are required for powering amplifiers, sensors, data converters, and industrial process controllers. Zhijun Qian, Senior Engineer and William Xiong, Applications Engineer, at Analog Devices (ADI) investigate.
