DESCRIPTION

The L6353 device is a smart driver, with all the drive and protection know-how ”on board”. Available in both DIP and SO package, it can be triggered with a logic level or with the signalfrom an optocoupleror a pulse transformer. It filters parasitic inputsignals and drives any MOS or IGBT.

■ 0 TO –7.5V NEGATIVE BIAS VOLTAGE SUPPLY RANGE

■ OVER CURRENT AND DESATURATION PROTECTION OF THE EXTERNAL POWER DEVICE (EXTERNALLY PROGRAMMABLE)

■ LATCH-UP PROTECTION (FOR IGBT)

■ TWO STEPS TURN-ON (PROGRAMMABLE)

■ PROTECTION AGAINST POSITIVE SUPPLY UNDER-VOLTAGE

■ INPUT COMPATIBLE WITH OPTOCOUPLER OR PULSE TRANSFORMER

■ PROGRAMMABLE TURN-ON DELAY

■ THERMAL PROTECTION WITH ON-CHIP OVER-TEMPERATURE ALARM AND TURNOFF PROCEDURE
