IGBT gate drive circuits are subjected to high common mode dv/dt. ... Figure 7 shows a block diagram of a typical desaturation detector. Here, a high voltage fast recovery diode ...

The new device, “TLP5222,” a 2.5A output smart gate driver photocoupler, has a built-in automatic recovery function from protective operation. Shipments start today.

Driver circuits must both transmit the controller's switching on/off signals with galvanic isolation and provide energy to turn the switch on and off and to maintain the required on or off state. The ...

Another key requirement for IGBT driver circuits is that enough current can be supplied to charge and discharge the input capacitances of the IGBT and thus to switch the IGBT on and off.

Semikron’s latest gate-drive unit is designed for use with interleaved, multilevel and parallel IGBT circuits. The Skyper 42 LJ is a dual-channel IGBT driver unit for 600V, 1,200V and 1,700V IGBT ...

The L298 can use supply voltages as high as 42V to drive inductive and capacitive loads such as relays, solenoids, DC and stepper motors, as well as piezoelectric devices. In this design, the device’s ...

The new IGBT suppresses short circuit current that flows through the resonance capacitor when equipment is switched on. Its circuit current [4] peak value is 129A, about a 31% reduction from the ...

SAN JOSE, Calif. — Power Integrations (NASDAQ: POWI), the leader in gate-driver technology for medium- and high-voltage inverter applications, today announced a new family of plug-and-play gate ...
