2SD106AI-17 UC

Gate Driver Overview

The 2SD106AI-17 UC is a dual-channel SCALE-1 driver core designed for IGBTs up to 1700 V. It provides ±6 A gate current, optimized for IGBTs from 50 A to typically 200 A. The device features electrical isolation between control electronics and the power section, with a gate voltage of ±15 V. Each channel includes programmable Vce-monitoring for short-circuit and overcurrent protection. It operates in two modes: independent channels or half-bridge with internal dead-time generation. An integrated isolated DC/DC converter supplies 1 W per channel.

Gate Driver Procurement Notes

Verify component authenticity through authorized Power Integrations distributors. Confirm package markings and datasheet revision against official documentation. Check for end-of-life status or obsolescence notices prior to procurement. Ensure supply chain integrity to avoid counterfeit components.

Gate Driver Selection Notes

Select this component for designs requiring reliable IGBT driving up to 1700 V. Consider its dual-channel capability and integrated isolation. Note that it is not recommended for new designs; evaluate suggested alternatives like 2SC0106T or 2SC0108T for updated projects.

Gate Driver Part Context

The 2SD106AI series comprises dual-channel SCALE-1 driver cores established as an industrial standard since 1999. The 2SD106AI-17 UC variant continues this lineage, offering proven reliability in demanding environments. It utilizes the CONCEPT SCALE-1 chipset for robust performance.

Gate Driver Replacement Considerations

Suggested alternatives include 2SC0106T and 2SC0108T. These are recommended for new designs due to the 2SD106AI series being discontinued for new development.
