A typical SMPS uses a reference voltage and an optocoupler to regulate the output voltage. The optocoupler carries the isolated information from the secondary side to the primary nonisolated side and ensures proper output regulation...

Many systems derive ±15 V supplies for analog circuitry from an input voltage that may be above or below the 15 V output...
The Optoelectronics group of Vishay Intertechnology introduced a new fully integrated proximity sensor designed to increase efficiency and performance in consumer applications...
For a recent design project, a robust power supply was needed to control the gates of high-side FETs...
Avoiding op-amp output saturation error by keeping op-amp outputs “live” and below zero volts is a job where a few milliamps and volts (or even fractions of one volt) of regulated negative rail can be key to achieving accurate analog performance...
Zero-voltage switching flyback topology and advanced SR FET control enable 95 percent efficiency, reduce power supply size and component count...
Relays are common electromechanical devices in electrical circuits that come in two types: either latched or non-latched...
Bel Fuse announced the industry’s only surface mount, PPTC resettable fuse, line-volt-rated to 240 VAC...
Single-output switching regulator circuits can often be adapted to multiple output configurations with a minimum of changes, but these transformations usually call for custom wound inductors...
Fig 1’s circuit, which was developed to monitor the traffic of bumblebees into and out of the hive, differentiates “a-to-b” motion from “b-to-a” motion...
