This post sponsored by Texas Instruments. Industrial machines use a lot of heavy inductive loads. From solenoids and actuators to motors and blowers, it is not surprising that these materials can ...

Engineers who design for extended-temperature applications like automotive designs should know about the four new opto-isolators from Avago that are just hitting shelves. All four take advantage of ...

The importance of signal isolation in high-voltage design The difference between optocouplers and opto-emulators Details on TI’s silicon dioxide (SiO 2) isolation technology Isolation is invaluable in ...

Linear Technology announced the LT8304, a monolithic flyback regulator that significantly simplifies the design of isolated DC/DC converters. The LT8304 operates in boundary mode, which is a variable ...

Once more opto-isolators are to be seen in Wonderland. The aim was to see if the faster photodiode types can operate quickly in common collector mode. They consist of an infra-red led and a fast npn ...
