Hi Joe:

If the 150 V DC is generated from the 3.7 V DC,
then a fault between the two circuits will cause
the 150 V DC to stop and become 3.7 V DC.

The Law of Conservation of Energy.  There is no
way the 150 V can cause the 3.7 V to increase!

Therefore, there is no need to isolate the 150
V DC from the 3.7 V.  Any single fault will
result in "SELV."

*****

Single-fault testing is applied to any component
in the series circuit from a body part touching
the USB common to the 150 V DC to the 300 Hz to
the touch-screen to the body finger.  (All
measurements referenced to the USB common.)


Merry Christmas!
Rich
