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 ...

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 ...

Differential ports make possible the recovery of signals mixed with common-mode noise, and the use of such ports gives rise to the need for measuring common mode rejection ratio (CMRR). Circuit blocks ...

Isolation is a means of preventing current from flowing between two communicating points. Typically, isolation is used in two situations. The first is where there's the potential for current surges ...
