Vishay has launched the VOFD341A and VOFD343A optically-coupled IGBT and MOSFET drivers in a compact, stretched SO-6 package which offers a high isolation voltage.
The VOFD341A produces a peak output current of 3 A, and the VOFD343A produces peak output current of 4 A. Featuring maximum propagation delay of 200 ns, these optocouplers are ideal for applications requiring fast switching and high-voltage operation. The gate drivers are particularly well suited to driving the switches in inverter power stages, and can be used to directly drive IGBTs with ratings up to 1,200 V/100 A.
