Reverse polarity is one of the most common causes of circuit failure, from hobby projects to industrial systems. The good news is that a well-designed reverse polarity protection using MOSFET ...
Engineers often use a gate driver or “pre-driver” IC along with N-channel power MOSFETs to provide the high current needed to drive motors. It’s important to account for all the design considerations ...
In this article we will discuss how to build a powerful DC motor driver that can be controlled using a microcontroller like an Arduino or a Raspberry Pi, or even a standalone PWM generator chip. DC ...
A pair of compact 40 V, 1 A-rated gate drivers from Diodes Inc. are specifically designed to control the high-current power MOSFETs used in on-board and embedded power supplies and motor drive ...
After discussing the three transistor high-side buck p-mosfet driver (a recognised circuit and not mine) with some of EW’s sage commenters, I wondered once again if I could design something similar ...
Promising to reduce the size of gate-drive circuits by one half in motor drives, the IR2180 series MOSFET and IGBT gate driver ICs target applications up to 12 kW and also claim to reduce part counts ...
