The MAX6495-MAX6499 series of overvoltage protection circuits from Maxim Integrated Products operates as a switch controller to either disconnect or limit the output voltage to a load during an ...

Power-supply failure takes on significant importance in high-end computer, telecom, medical, and industrial applications, in which uninterruptible power is paramount. In these systems, diode-OR-ed ...

When a sensitive circuit must under no circumstances have too high a supply voltage applied, then some means of disconnecting the supply must be provided. One way to achieve this is to trigger a ...

Linear Technology has launched an overvoltage protection controller for electronic systems that operates from 9V to greater than 500V. The LTC4366 floating surge stopper utilises an adjustable ...

Rather than use linear surge stoppers for overvoltage protection, opt for switching surge varieties, as the load will continue running even when surges last for a long time. Linear vs. switching surge ...

Ready for 48V automotive power architectures, the L98GD8 driver from STMicroelectronics has eight fully configurable channels for driving MOSFETs in flexible high-side and low-side configurations.
