HCPL-3150#500

Isolators - Gate Drivers Overview

The HCPL-3150#500 is a single-channel IGBT gate drive optocoupler manufactured by Broadcom Limited. It integrates an infrared LED with an integrated circuit featuring a power output stage, designed for driving power IGBTs and MOSFETs in motor control inverters. Key electrical parameters include a minimum peak output current of 0.5A, a maximum propagation delay of 0.5μs, and a common-mode rejection ratio (CMR) of 15kV/μs at VCM=1500V. The device operates within a supply voltage range of 15V to 30V and supports a working temperature range from -40°C to +100°C. It provides 3750Vrms isolation voltage and utilizes an 8-pin surface-mount DIP gull-wing package.

Isolators - Gate Drivers Feature Summary

• Integrated high-current output stage capable of directly driving power IGBTs and MOSFETs without external components.
• High-speed operation with low propagation delay and high common-mode noise immunity for reliable signal transmission.
• Built-in under-voltage lockout protection with hysteresis to prevent improper switching during power-up or brown-out conditions.

Isolators - Gate Drivers Applications

• Motor control inverter applications
• Industrial variable frequency drives
• Switch mode power supplies

Isolators - Gate Drivers Procurement Notes

Verify the specific suffix #500 against the manufacturer's latest datasheet to confirm the exact packaging configuration and lead time requirements. Ensure compatibility with existing PCB footprints for the 8-DIP Gull Wing package. Confirm that the 3750Vrms isolation rating meets the safety standards required for your specific application environment.

Isolators - Gate Drivers Selection Notes

Select this component when direct drive capability for IGBTs or MOSFETs is required with galvanic isolation. Consider the 0.5A peak output current and 15-30V operating range to ensure sufficient gate drive strength. Evaluate the 15kV/μs CMR specification if the application involves high dv/dt environments typical in inverter circuits.
