The latest trends in electric vehicle and industrial power systems demand higher voltage operation and greater efficiency, but also greater safety of power system devices, write Vikneswaran ...

When designing a motor control circuit, it’s vital to determine how to deliver the high current required to drive the motor. Designers must choose whether to use monolithic integrated circuits (ICs) ...

How is peak current defined? A close look at datasheet headlines and how they vary. A case study that compares different drivers and peak currents. One question often comes up when considering what ...

Power-Switching Enablers Low-power, logic-level switching signals can't drive moderate- to high-power semiconductor switches, such as the MOSFET (metal-oxide semiconductor field-effect transistor) and ...

One common question asked when considering what gate driver to use for an application is: what is the peak current that a driver can deliver? Peak current is one of the most important parameters in ...
