Fitting the core and sizing its gate load

The 2SC0108T occupies 45 × 34.3 mm and stands 16 mm high. It integrates isolated DC/DC conversion and two gate channels for an inverter designer building a module-specific carrier.

Power Integrations cites 600 A at 1200 V and 450 A at 1700 V as example IGBT module classes. Those currents describe the power switches. The driver delivers 8 A peak gate current with 1 W available per channel.

With a +15 V to −8 V gate swing, both gate charge and switching frequency enter the power budget. In a multi-level stage, the separate isolation of the two secondary channels also matters when assigning their reference potentials.

Key Features

  • Channel isolationEach secondary is isolated from the primary and the other channel
  • Gate bias+15 V on and −8 V off

Target Applications

  • Compact industrial IGBT half-bridge and multi-level inverter boards
