Switching power supplies, operating directly from input power lines, are generally required to have their outputs galvanically isolated from the input, in order to reduce the danger of electrical ...

A difficult challenge in power-supply design is tailoring the response of the control loop. With the loads dynamically changing at a much higher frequency, the control loop has to keep up. To handle ...

The VOx619A series phototransistor optocouplers from Vishay Intertechnology, Inc. combine a high and linear current transfer ...

Designers of switch-mode power supplies generally put a lot of care into selecting the placement of poles/zeros of the supply transfer function to ensure stable operation. However, many such designs ...

This white paper discusses the use of hermetic optocouplers in military and space electronics applications. The use of hermetic optocouplers provide a highly reliable result compared to its plastic ...
