• "The new 5kV Si82xx isolated gate drivers include the Si822x optocoupler-input compatible devices and the Si823x digital-input devices."
• "The Si822x devices significantly improve system reliability by providing a functional upgrade for popular propagation delays - more than five times faster than common optocoupler plus gate-driver solutions - for better timing margins and higher system efficiency. technology, ISOdriver devices exhibit none of the performance degradations over time and temperature that are common with optocoupler solutions."
• "For example, Power Integrations offers low-cost offline analog parts that don't require an optocoupler, and Linear Technology makes the LTC4278 and other analog parts that use a sense winding rather than an optocoupler to provide voltage feedback."
