The behavior of any semiconductor device is dependent on the temperature of its die, which is why electrical parameters are given at a specified temperature. To sustain an optocoupler's performance ...

Optocouplers are used extensively for high-voltage isolation and electrical noise rejection – two essential requirements for transmitting correct information between different voltage potentials ...

In LEDs heat and high currents hasten the dimming process which can lead to unreliable operation in LED-powered optocouplers. Some simple and straight-forward analysis will keep their light shining ...

Switching power supplies, operating directly from input power lines, are generally required to have their outputs galvanically isolated from the input, in order to reduce the danger of electrical ...
