Description:

VLA500-01 is a hybrid integrated circuit designed for driving IGBT modules. This device is a fully

isolated gate drive circuit consist ing of an optimally isolated gate drive amplifier and an isolated

DC-to-DC converter. The gate driver provides an over-current protection function based on

desaturation detection.



Features:

Built-in Isolated DC-to-DC Converter for Gate Drive

SIP Outline Allows More Space on Mounting Area

Built-in Short-Circuit Protection (With Fault Output)

Variable Fall Time on Short Circuit Protection

Electrical Isolation Voltage Between Input and Output (2500 Vrms for 1 Minute)

TTL Compatible Input



Application:

To drive IGBT modules for inverter or AC servo systems applications



Recommended IGBT Modules:

600V module up to 600A

1200V module up to 1400A
