SID1182KQ

Isolators - Gate Drivers Overview

The SID1182KQ is a single-channel IGBT and MOSFET gate driver from the SCALE-iDriver family, utilizing FluxLink magnetic coupling technology. It provides reinforced galvanic isolation of 5000Vrms with a common-mode transient immunity of 50kV/µs. The device delivers an 8A peak output current with typical rise and fall times of 150ns. It operates within a supply voltage range of 22V to 28V for the output stage and supports switching frequencies up to 250kHz. The component is AEC-Q100 qualified for automotive applications and functions across a temperature range of -40°C to 125°C.

Isolators - Gate Drivers Feature Summary

• Integrated FluxLink magnetic coupling technology eliminates the need for external bootstrap components or isolated power supplies.
• Provides reinforced galvanic isolation suitable for high-voltage switching applications in demanding environments.
• Includes integrated active clamping and fault protection features such as under-voltage lockout and short-circuit detection.

Isolators - Gate Drivers Applications

• Silicon Carbide (SiC) and Silicon IGBT/MOSFET gate driving
• Automotive power electronics and traction inverters
• Industrial motor drives and servo systems
• Uninterruptible Power Supplies (UPS) and solar inverters

Isolators - Gate Drivers Procurement Notes

Verify the specific suffix 'KQ' confirms the tube packaging format and AEC-Q100 automotive qualification status. Ensure the ordering part number matches the required isolation rating and package type. Confirm RoHS compliance and REACH status against current regulatory requirements before finalizing procurement specifications.

Isolators - Gate Drivers Selection Notes

Select this component when high dv/dt immunity and compact design are required without isolated auxiliary power supplies. The 8A peak drive capability suits medium-power SiC and IGBT modules. Consider the eSOP-R16B package constraints and thermal dissipation limits relative to the application's ambient temperature and duty cycle requirements.

Isolators - Gate Drivers Part Context

This part belongs to the SID11xxKQ series of SCALE-iDriver gate drivers. These devices are designed to replace traditional optocoupler-based solutions by offering superior reliability and smaller footprint. The series integrates the driver, isolator, and protection logic into a single monolithic package.

Isolators - Gate Drivers Replacement Considerations

SID1182K serves as a non-automotive grade alternative within the same series. Verify that the target application does not strictly require AEC-Q100 certification if substituting with the standard version.
