The Challenges Associated with 3D IC Implementation
https://makerv2.webteractive.co/blog/the-challenges-associated-with-3d-ic-integrated-circuit-implementation
A new trend of vertically-stacked integrated circuits (or circuitry) is being touted as a means to decelerate Moore’s law. Set to meet electronic device requirements like lower power consumption and higher performance, 3D integration is piquing the interest of several design teams who plan to efficiently pack high functionality into small form factors. There are, however, both advantages and challenges alike.

Maxim Integrated’s Family of CMTI Isolated Gate Drivers: Drive High Power Transistors
https://makerv2.webteractive.co/blog/maxim-integrateds-family-of-cmti-isolated-gate-drivers-drive-high-power-transistors
Almost every modern electrical system uses switching power supplies. Due to its low current digital signaling, a microcontroller is not considered to be efficient in driving high power transistors of power supplies. Therefore, a gate driver is used to amplify the microcontroller output before it is fed into the input of a high power transistor.
