ACPL-P347-500E

Overview

The Broadcom ACPL-P347-500E is a high-performance, single-channel logic output optocoupler designed for driving wide-bandgap semiconductors. It features a stretched SO-6 package and delivers a maximum continuous output current of 1A. The device operates with a supply voltage range of 15V to 30V and supports an operating temperature range from -40°C to 105°C. Key electrical parameters include a typical rise time of 8ns and a fall time of 8ns. It provides an isolation voltage of 3750Vrms and has a maximum forward voltage of 1.55V.

Feature Summary

• Integrated power output stage capable of delivering 1A drive current for SiC/GaN MOSFETs and IGBTs
• High-speed switching characteristics with 8ns rise and fall times
• Optically coupled AlGaAs LED input for reliable signal transmission
• Stretched SO-6 package design facilitating PCB layout

Applications

• Driving SiC and GaN MOSFETs in power conversion systems
• Gate drive applications for IGBTs in industrial inverters
• Motor drive control circuits
• Industrial networking systems requiring electrical isolation

Procurement Notes

Verify the specific suffix '500E' to confirm RoHS compliance and lead-free status. Ensure the supplier documentation explicitly references the ACPL-P347 series datasheet for accurate electrical specifications. Confirm the package type matches the stretched SO-6 form factor required for your board design. Cross-reference the manufacturer part number with official Broadcom or authorized distributor lists to avoid counterfeit components.

Selection Notes

Select this component when driving wide-bandgap devices like SiC or GaN that require high peak current and fast switching speeds. The 1A output capability distinguishes it from standard logic optocouplers. Consider the 3750Vrms isolation rating for safety requirements. The stretched SO-6 package offers better creepage distances compared to standard SOIC packages, making it suitable for higher voltage isolation applications.
