Description

Avago’s ACPL-336J gate drive optocoupler features fast propagation delay with excellent timing skew performance. Smart features that are integrated to protect the IGBT include IGBT desaturation detection with softshutdown protection and fault feedback, undervoltage lockout and feedback, and active Miller current clamping. This full-featured and easy-to-implement IGBT gate drive optocoupler comes in a compact, surface-mountable SO-16 package for space-savings. It is suitable for driving IGBTs and power MOSFETs used in motor control and inverter applications.
