High linearity analog optocouplers provide the versatility required to meet a wide range of analog isolation needs. For designers of high voltage applications, high linearity analog optocouplers can reliably send analog signals across very high voltage area and low voltage area without distortion. This article examines the internal operation and servo control mechanism of high

linearity analog optocouplers in detail. Application examples are also presented, ranging from motor control current sensing to traditional current loop communication in process control. Standard digital optocouplers have long been used to address the optoisolation needs in high voltage applications. Combining a digital optocoupler with signal processing circuitry meets the need of high voltage isolation, but this complicates the design and is not suitable for applications that require analog in and analog out. Some linear optocouplers available in the market do provide analog isolation, however they fail to deliver necessary performance such as linearity, gain accuracy, along with high enough working insulation voltage. Isolation amplifier optocouplers can also be considered, but designers must consider the trade off between cost and performance [1]. An analog optocoupler with high linearity is ideal to isolate analog signals in a wide variety of applications that require excellent stability, linearity and bandwidth. An optimally designed circuit is capable of handling different type of signals including unipolar/bipolar, AC/DC and inverting/noninverting. Certain applications require very high isolation voltage. For example, in motor drive high side current sensing and phase current sensing applications, the working voltage could be as high as 1 kV. An optocoupler needs to be specially constructed to work under such harsh...
This project fits more for custom made battery casing that can have more space to hide things inside. This switch with few alterations can be used for any other project as well but is designed based on e-bike needs! This project use a clever functionality of....
The circuit described here uses ultrasonic oscillations and operates based on the propagation velocity of these oscillations in the air. Thus, we can easily determine the distance of two points if the time within which the wave travels this distance is....
Sometimes the precious metals are hidden too deep and are not detected except with complicated devices. In many cases, however, small pieces of precious metal buried near the surface can be detected by relatively simple means. Everyone is very attractive to....
Many times for various reasons we forget or can not water the plants that we have in our homes. And many humidity sensors units just notify us with a beeping sound or with a flashing light, that the pot needs watering. But what if we are away from home? This....
The principle behind a metal detector is really very simple. Proof of this is the circuit that follows, in which it proves that the construction of a metal detector can be done in the minute, with few components that we find very easily everywhere. With the....
The sub-harmonic bass generator is a sound producing unit for guitars. The sound it produces looks very much like that of the bass guitar. The octave generator is sometimes quite unusual since it does not produce any of the usual ways of coloring the sound,....
In the past the sounding (sea bottom measurement) was done with the "bullet", that is, with a heavy lead object that the seamen plucked into the sea hung from a calibrated rope. As soon as the "bullet" reached the bottom, the depth appeared directly from the....
This Amplifier was designed to have the following specifications: Distortion less than 0.1% at full power of 100W even at 20KHz. Power has to be attributed to an extended bandwidth. The output transistors must be protected against short circuits. The power....
A series of LEDs serve to alert the gardener when plants need water. Using two conventional digital integrated LEDs and a series of LEDs, we make a very useful device for gardening. The device detects the amount of water in the pot and alerts the grower.....
