Now available from MicroPower Direct (Stoughton, MA), the IGD1205W is a hybrid integrated circuit specifically designed to drive N-channel IGBT modules. It provides the I/O isolation, high speed, drive voltage stability and fault protection required to control most MOS gated power devices. The IGD1205W converts TTL compatible input signals into a fully isolated +15V/-8V Gate drive with a peak drive current of 5A. Additional features include:

• An internal DC-DC converter.
• An internal optocoupler.
• 30 kV/μS CMR.
• 3,750 VAC isolation.
• Up to 5 A drive current.
• A TTL compatible input.
• Short-circuit protection.
• Fault signal output.
• A compact SIP package.
• An operating temperature range of -40° to +70°C.
