DESCRIPTION

The VO1263AB and VO1263AAC photovoltaic MOSFET

driver consists of two LEDs optically coupled to two

photodiode arrays. The photodiode array provides a floating

source with adequate voltage and current to drive high

power MOSFET transistors. Optical coupling provides a

high I/O isolation voltage. In order to turn the MOSFET off,

an external resistance (gate-to-source) is required for gate

discharge.
