ACPL-W302-560E

Overview

The ACPL-W302-560E is a single-channel logic output optocoupler designed for IGBT gate drive applications. It features an open collector output capable of delivering a maximum continuous current of 200 mA. The device provides 3750 Vrms isolation voltage and operates within a temperature range of -40°C to +100°C. Key electrical parameters include a typical rise/fall time of 50 ns, a maximum propagation delay of 700 ns, and a forward voltage of 1.8 V at a maximum forward current of 12 mA. It is housed in a SO-6 Stretched package.

Feature Summary

• Integrated high-current open-collector output stage optimized for direct IGBT gate driving
• High common-mode noise immunity suitable for noisy industrial environments
• Compact surface-mount packaging facilitates dense PCB layouts

Applications

• Insulated Gate Bipolar Transistor (IGBT) gate drive circuits
• Industrial motor control systems
• Power supply feedback loops requiring galvanic isolation

Procurement Notes

Verify the specific suffix '560E' to confirm tape-and-reel packaging and RoHS compliance status. Ensure the design accounts for the 3750 Vrms isolation rating rather than higher variants. Confirm thermal management requirements for the SO-6 package under continuous load conditions. Cross-reference with the official Broadcom datasheet for absolute maximum ratings before finalizing procurement specifications.

Selection Notes

Select this component when a single channel with moderate output current capability is required for isolated switching. The open-collector architecture allows flexibility in pull-up voltage selection. Consider the 50 ns switching speed for medium-frequency applications. Evaluate the 3750 Vrms isolation barrier against system safety standards. Compare against push-pull outputs if faster transition times are critical for the target application.

Part Context

This part belongs to the Broadcom ACPL-W series, which focuses on high-speed, high-current optocouplers for power electronics. The W-series typically integrates driver stages to reduce external component count. The ACPL-W302 variant specifically targets IGBT applications, distinguishing itself from standard logic output couplers by its enhanced sink/source capabilities and robust isolation characteristics.

Replacement Considerations

ACPL-W302-000E offers identical electrical performance but differs in packaging format, utilizing tubes instead of reels.
