 4 common questions when isolating signal and powerSponsored by Texas Instruments A high-voltage circuit design requires isolation to protect human operators, enable communication to lower-voltage circuitry and eliminate unwanted noise within the system. Many options are available when designing a power supply for digitally isolated circuits including; flyback, H-bridge LLC, push-pull, and integrated isolated data and power solutions. This article explores common questions when isolating signal and power in a design as well as a brief overview of available power solutions. |
