I'm designing a power supply in which I need 20kV isolation between the input and output. Anyone knows of optocoupler manufacturers that can provide that much isolation? The ones I have used in the past are only rated up to a few kV. =20 Also while I am on the topic, what about transformer design. How can I assure high DC isolation between the primary and secondaries of the transformer. Do high voltage power supplies use a different core shape than the standard "E" shape? =20 Happy Holidays, =20 Shahid -- http://www.piclist.com#nomail Going offline?
