In LEDs heat and high currents hasten the dimming process which can lead to unreliable operation in LED-powered optocouplers. Some simple and straight-forward analysis will keep their light shining ...

In the world of integrated circuits (ICs) making a reliable and lasting product can be crucial. This is especially true for industrial settings where life cycles are expected to last for decades.

Avago Technologies, a supplier of analog interface components for communications, industrial and consumer applications, has announced a new gate drive optocoupler targeting automotive hybrid electric ...

AC plasma display panel (PDP) are called “plasma” displays because they use small cells containing electrically charged ionized gases, which are plasmas. This white paper discusses the use of ...

Avago Technologies announced two new miniature voltage/current threshold detection optocouplers for use in a wide range of industrial control applications. The ACPL-K370/K376 optocouplers are designed ...

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 ...
