OptiSwitch develops high voltage light activated switches (LASS) for DoD mission critical applications. These switches range in voltage from 10 kV to 20kV with currents of 100kA and offer high dI/dt, high action, and optical isolation. To view more information about LASS, click here.
LAS010/020
OptiSwitch has just introduced the latest in high voltage switching innovation with the development of an (Extreme Break Over DIode (XBOD). Unlike the LASS switches, these two terminal thyristor based devices are switched on by a dv/dt trigger circuit. OptiSwitch has alsp developed the trigger circuit to activate the XBOD that can be customized to each customers specific needs. To view more information about the XBOD, click here.
