					Gate drive method extends supply's input range: 
					06/26/03  EDN-Design Ideas / Industrial and telecom 
					applications often require a nonisolated, low-voltage supply 
					from a high-voltage input. IC manufacturers have responded 
					to that need with the application of high-voltage processes 
					and offer control ICs that work to 50V and higher. That 
					voltage is sometimes insufficient, and you need further 
					design techniques to extend the input voltage... |
