SUNNYVALE, CA—August 24, 2011—Maxim Integrated Products (NASDAQ: MXIM) introduces the MAX13256, an H-bridge transformer driver with a wide input-voltage range for isolated power supplies. Using this simple solution, engineers can quickly design a highly efficient (up to 90%) isolated DC-DC converter. The MAX13256 drives a transformer’s primary coil with up to 300mA of current from an 8V to 36V DC supply which can deliver up to 10W of isolated power. Users can choose their own transformer winding ratio which defines the output voltage, thus allowing the selection of virtually any isolated output voltage. This robust supply … Read More → "Isolated Power, 36V, H-Bridge Transformer Driver Enables Simple and Flexible Isolated DC-DC Designs"
