FOD8316R2

Isolators - Gate Drivers Overview

The FOD8316R2 is a single-channel MOSFET output optocoupler designed for IGBT gate driving applications. It features a push-pull output stage capable of delivering 2.5 A peak source and sink current. The device integrates desaturation detection functionality to protect power switches during short-circuit events. It operates with an isolation voltage of 4243 Vrms and supports a supply voltage range of 15 V to 30 V. Key timing parameters include a propagation delay of 500 ns (max) and rise/fall times of 34 ns. The component is housed in a 16-pin SOIC wide body package.

Isolators - Gate Drivers Feature Summary

• Integrates active desaturation detection circuitry for immediate short-circuit protection of connected power devices.
• Provides high-current push-pull output capability suitable for direct drive of IGBTs, MOSFETs, and SiC devices.
• Features high common-mode transient immunity to ensure reliable operation in noisy switching environments.

Isolators - Gate Drivers Applications

• Industrial motor drives and servo systems
• Uninterruptible power supplies (UPS)
• Solar photovoltaic inverters
• High-frequency switched-mode power supplies

Isolators - Gate Drivers Procurement Notes

Verify the specific suffix R2 indicates tape-and-reel packaging configuration when ordering. Confirm that the SO-16 wide body package dimensions align with target PCB footprint requirements. Ensure design accounts for the 100 mW power dissipation limit within the specified operating temperature range of -40°C to +100°C. Cross-reference datasheet revisions to confirm compatibility with existing desaturation sensing thresholds.

Isolators - Gate Drivers Selection Notes

Select this component when desaturation protection is required within the isolation barrier. The 2.5 A output current supports medium-power IGBT modules. The 4243 Vrms isolation rating suits industrial mains-connected applications. Consider the 500 ns propagation delay for timing-sensitive control loops. The wide body package facilitates higher creepage distances compared to standard SOIC packages.

Isolators - Gate Drivers Part Context

This part belongs to the FOD8316 family of IGBT driver optocouplers. It shares the same functional block diagram as the tube-packaged FOD8316V but differs in shipping format. The series is engineered for robust performance in high-voltage switching applications requiring integrated fault detection capabilities.

Isolators - Gate Drivers Replacement Considerations

The FOD8316V is a pin-compatible alternative offering identical electrical specifications and desaturation functionality. The primary distinction lies in the packaging; FOD8316V is supplied in tubes while FOD8316R2 uses tape and reel. Verify mechanical fit before substitution.
