How can vehicle electronics withstand high-energy load dumps without adding multiple protection stages? A TVS diode family ...

For many years, the load dump surge condition test for automobiles was defined in the ISO-7637-2 standard and was used by major automotive component manufacturers worldwide. In 2010, this standard was ...

The MAX16128/MAX16129 load-dump/reverse-voltage protection circuits protect power supplies from damaging input-voltage conditions, including overvoltage, reverse-voltage, and high-voltage transient ...

This article is part of the Ideas for Design Series: Vol. 3, No. 8. This circuit builds on a previous idea in which the addition of an optocoupler to a microcontroller output converted a “dumb” ...
