These are 1A and 2.5A gate drive optocouplers designed to protect and drive Power MOSFETs and Silicon Carbide (SiC) MOSFETs for high-frequency switching applications such as inverters, motor controllers, and switched-mode power supplies (SPS). Compared to previous-generation Avago devices, the ACPL-P/W345 and ACPL-P/W346 have a propagation delay twice as fast.
Key Product Features
• 120 ns Maximum Propagation Delay
• 2.5 A Maximum Output Current (ACPL-P/W346)
• 1.0 A Maximum Output Current (ACPL-P/W345)
• Rail-to-Rail Output Voltage
• Undervoltage Lockout (ULVO) with Hysteresis
• 50 kV/µs Minimum Common-Mode Rejection (CMR)
• Small, Tensioned SO6 Package Reduces PCB Space and Cost
Avago will be showcasing the new ACPL-P/W345 and ACPL-P/W346 at Avago booth 7-266 at the PCIM Europe 2013 trade fair in Nuremberg, Germany, from May 14-16.
