This white paper discusses industrial isolation issues and ways RF isolation technology can be applied to increase system robustness and performance. » When to Use a Digital Isolator vs. an Optocoupler Enhancing Power Delivery System Designs with CMOS-Based Isolated Gate Drivers As emerging green standards challenge designers to deliver more energy-efficient, cost-effective and reliable power delivery systems in smaller form factors, the need for greater power and isolation device integration becomes increasingly important. A critical building block within ac-dc and isolated dc-dc power supplies is the isolated gate driver. While optocoupler-based solutions and gate-drive transformers have been the mainstay for switch-mode power supply (SMPS) systems for many years, fully-integrated isolated gate driver products based on RF technology and implemented in mainstream CMOS provide a more reliable and power-efficient solution. » Enhancing Power Delivery System Designs with CMOS-Based Isolated Gate Drivers View all Isolation and Power Training & Resources...
