This application note shows the user how to implement a zero cross detector with a minimum of external components. It should be noted that this solution will not give any galvanic isolation for the ...

AC loads are everywhere around us because at least home appliances are supplied with the mains power. Therefore, we always face the situations that we want to have full control (dimming) over an AC ...

Rohm recently introduced a low-power 600V-tolerant zero-crossing detection chip, intended to cut energy wastage in home appliances by reducing sense current through the high voltage monitoring ...
