Design & Manufacture
Fairchild's FOD8333 2.5A output current IGBT drive Optocoupler is now
available from Mouser. It is an advanced 2.5A output current device capable
of driving medium-power IGBTs with ratings up to 1200V and 150A.
The device suits fast-switching driving of power IGBTs and MOSFETs in
motor-control inverter applications and high-performance power systems. The
FOD8333 offers protection features necessary for preventing fault conditions
that lead to destructive thermal runaway of IGBTs.
Typical applications include AC and brushless DC motor drives, industrial
inverters, uninterruptible power supplies, induction heating and isolated
IGBT / pPower MOSFET gate drives.
The device utilizes proprietary Optoplanar coplanar packaging technology and
optimized IC design to achieve reliable high isolation and high noise
immunity, characterized by high common-mode rejection and power supply
rejection specifications. It is housed in a wide-body, 16-pin,
small-outline, plastic package.
