A number of measurements require an amplifier whose input terminals are galvanically isolated from its output and power terminals. Such devices, often called parametric or isolation amplifiers, are ...

Today, optocouplers are a ubiquitous electronic component, found in almost any piece of electrical equipment and in most industry segments. Since their introduction over twenty five years ago, ...

How a new isolation amplifier is optimized for low-voltage current-sensing applications. The method used to achieve isolation, and how the two available isolation ratings are characterized. Details of ...

Insulated-gate bipolar transistors (IGBTs) require full protection to avoid damage and failures resulting from conditions such as short circuits, overloads and overvoltages. The protection is key to ...
