Avago Technologies announced its ACPL-M49U/K49U/M71U/M72U digital optocouplers, which are new additions to its R2CouplerTM family. These optocouplers provide a wider offering of extended temperature ...

In many design situations, it’s the small, single-function devices that can overcome system challenges and weak spots by eliminating subsystem-interface concerns. Such is often the case with analog- ...

Continuous changes in legislation with regards to designing electronic systems in industrial applications call for the implementation of galvanic isolation into almost any electronic circuit design.

Optocouplers are devices that transfer electrical signals via light waves. They're appropriate for discrete-motion applications in industrial environments. Through light waves, optocouplers transfer ...
