ROHM’s Isolated DC-DC Converters for xEVs Reduce Application Size and Minimize Noise Design Countermeasures

Retrieved on: 
Wednesday, January 25, 2023

However, in addition to issues such as larger mounting area and power consumption, conventional isolated circuit configurations require considerable noise countermeasures for switching frequencies that vary with output current.

Key Points: 
  • However, in addition to issues such as larger mounting area and power consumption, conventional isolated circuit configurations require considerable noise countermeasures for switching frequencies that vary with output current.
  • ROHM’s new product utilizes a circuit configuration that achieves stable switching frequency characteristics without requiring a photocoupler, decreasing application size together with the workload needed for noise design countermeasures.
  • This, together with a spread spectrum function that minimizes radiated noise, contributes to reducing the number of efforts for noise design.
  • ROHM’s new DC-DC converter IC is ideal for gate driver power supplies that must be isolated from the battery for safety.
