SM6008

SM6008 Optically Coupled MOSFET Driver w/Discharge Circuit Description The SM6008 consists of an input drive LED optically coupled to a photodiode array output designed to drive highly capacitive loads, including the gate of a power MOSFET. The active discharge circuit of the PDA assures quick discharge of MOSFETs, providing fast turn-off times. This device can be used in a wide variety of applications for which high levels of input are required for a MOSFET output. The SM6008 comes standard in a miniature 6 pin DIP package making it ideal for high-density board applications.
