Relays usually are driven using optocouplers, which offer isolation between analog and digital grounds to ensure that switching currents in the relay coils do not affect the noise margin of the ...

Safety is a major concern in a good many motor-driven applications. This is true in industrial applications where motion starts when power is applied and especially true when power is restored after ...

When voltage sags occur inside or outside of a facility, properly placed power quality mitigation technology will save sensitive equipment from costly shutdowns. The cost of this mitigation equipment ...

Infineon has added slew-rate control to its Hitfet range of relay-replacing low-side switches. Aimed at automotive and industrial applications, and called Hitfet+, the devices also have enhanced ...

Hybrid relays are changing the way we think about switching inside electronic circuits. By combining the fast response of solid-state components with the reliability of mechanical contacts, these ...
