HCPL-3150 (Single Channel), HCPL-315J (Dual Channel)
0.5 Amp Output Current IGBT Gate Drive Optocoupler
Data Sheet
Overview
The Broadcom® HCPL-315X consists of an LED optically coupled to an integrated circuit with a power output stage. This optocoupler is ideally suited for driving power IGBTs and MOSFETs used in motor control inverter applications. The high operating voltage range of the output stage provides the drive voltages required by gate-controlled devices. The voltage and current supplied by this optocoupler makes it ideally suited for directly driving IGBTs with ratings up to 1200V/50A. For IGBTs with higher ratings, the HCPL-3150/315J can be used to drive a discrete power stage which drives the IGBT gate.
Applications
Isolated IGBT/MOSFET gate drive AC and brushless DC motor drives Industrial inverters Switch mode power supplies (SMPSs) Uninterruptable power supplies (UPSs)
