Description

The FOD3182 is a 3 A Output Current, High Speed MOSFET Gate

Drive Optocoupler. It consists of a aluminium gallium arsenide

(AlGaAs) light emitting diode optically coupled to a CMOS detector

with PMOS and NMOS output power transistors integrated circuit

power stage. It is ideally suited for high frequency driving of power

MOSFETS used in Plasma Display Panels (PDPs), motor control

inverter applications and high performance DC/DC converters.

The device is packaged in an 8−pin dual in−line housing compatible

with 260°C reflow processes for lead free solder compliance.
