Taiwan Semiconductor announces the availability of the TSCR4 family of linear CMOS LED driver ICs, providing a much-improved performance drop-in replacement for legacy bipolar drivers. These constant current drivers provide stable LED current over a wide range of conditions including source voltage variations, changes in load or temperature variations. Compared to legacy bipolar LED drivers, […]
Automotive load dump TVS – A unique transient voltage suppression application
Kevin Parmenter, Director, Applications Engineering, Taiwan Semiconductor, US Transient protection is common in nearly all electronic circuits. Self-contained automotive electronics systems present a unique challenge requiring a different type of transient voltage suppressor (TVS) Almost all electronics systems have a need to be protected from transients and surges. TVS devices are often used to […]
