Galvanic isolation plays a crucial role in ensuring the safety and functionality of high-voltage power systems, such as those found in factory automation, motor drives, grid infrastructure and electric vehicles. With voltages reaching several hundred or even thousands of volts, the primary concern is protecting maintenance personnel and end-equipment users. Galvanic isolation addresses this concern by creating a barrier that separates the high-voltage components from low-voltage human-interface sections.
Additionally, it serves as a secondary priority by enabling reliable and safe communication and interaction between high- and low-voltage circuits. This includes functions like voltage and current sensing, power supply control, digital communication and signal processing. By employing reliable isolation techniques, materials and integrated circuits (ICs), designers can meet both safety and operational requirements in high-voltage systems. Azhar M. 德州仪器
In an exclusive interview, Azhar Mohammed, product line manager of isolation at TI , said that opto-emulators represent a significant advancement over traditional optocouplers in the field of high-voltage signal isolation.

Managing Energy in Smart Buildings
By Giordana Francesca Brescia
Energy is at the center of our lives, but it has its costs. Therefore, excessive or unnecessary energy use can generate economic impacts on society as a whole and also have important global consequences on an environmental level. For this reason, intelligent buildings define the new energy scenario that will take place in the near future. In an intelligent building, the key design points are integration and interconnection.
