Si823H2AD-IS3
Overview
The Si823H2AD-IS3 is a high-performance isolated gate driver utilizing Skyworks' proprietary capacitive coupling technology to provide 5000Vrms isolation. It features a peak output current of 6A and is designed to drive power MOSFETs and IGBTs with high-speed switching requirements. The device includes integrated safety features like over-temperature protection and undervoltage lockout (UVLO) to ensure reliable operation in demanding power environments.
Why Choose This Part
This driver offers exceptional timing characteristics with a 12ns typical rise and fall time, enabling high-frequency operation with minimal switching losses. The 5000Vrms isolation rating and wide operating temperature range of -40C to 125C make it suitable for harsh industrial and automotive environments. Additionally, the high 6A peak output current allows it to drive large gate charge power transistors without external buffers.
Applications
Key Specifications
Getting Started
To evaluate this part, use the Si823H-KIT evaluation board which allows for testing of the driver's timing and drive strength. Ensure that the VDD supply (5.5V to 30V) is properly bypassed with low-ESR ceramic capacitors placed close to the device pins. Designers should pay close attention to the PCB layout to minimize parasitic inductance in the high-current gate drive loops.
