We love the WS28xx projects because even if we never plan to use them, the signal timing is like the most addictive puzzle game ever. For instance, check out this WS2811A driver which uses hardware ...

A new gate driver claims to ease the adoption of gallium nitride (GaN) technology in consumer and industrial applications such as power supplies in computer servers, factory-automation equipment, ...

While attending APEC 2019, it seemed that gallium-nitride (GaN) transistors were just coming into their own in high-volume applications, while silicon-carbide (SiC) transistors have found wide ...

The Special Report on page 6 of this issue covers power supplies and loads and also offers coverage of products and technologies expected to be highlighted at APEC 2018, March 4-8 in San Antonio, TX.

Teledyne e2v HiRel announces the new TD99102 UltraCMOS® High-speed FET and GaN transistor driver offering very high switching speed of 20 MHz. The new flip-chip part is ideal for driving Teledyne ...

MUNICH, Germany--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Panasonic Corporation today announced that it will start mass production of a high-speed gate driver (AN34092B) optimized for driving its GaN power transistor X-GaN ...

In power converters, pulse-drive circuits transmit the pulses a controller generates to the power transistor. Driver circuits must both transmit the controller's switching on/off signals with galvanic ...

STMicroelectronics has created its first galvanically isolated gate driver for GaN transistors. Called STGAP2GS the wide body SO-8W packaged single-channel driver can work with rails up to 1.2kV. The ...

Last week I explained how to use a motion sensor to trigger an event with an Arduino. The event we triggered was a simple blinking of an LED. You can do a lot with a bunch of LEDs if you use your ...

In power electronics, as found, for example, in drive technology, IGBTs are frequently used for high voltage and high current switching. These power transistors are voltage controlled and produce ...
