Broadcom Inc. 0.5 Amp Output Current IGBT Gate Drive Optocoupler HCPL-5151-300

The HCPL-5151-300 is a high reliability Class H hermetically sealed optocoupler in an 8-Pin ceramic DIP package with gull wing formed solder dipped leads. The solder contains lead. Gold plated leads and various lead form options are also available. See the datasheet for details.
The product is capable of operation and storage over the full military temperature range and may also be purchased in a commercial grade or from the DSCC Standard Microcircuit Drawing (SMD) 5962-04205. The HCPL-5151-300 is manufactured and tested on a MIL-PRF-38534 certified line and is included in the DSCC Qualified Manufacturers List QML-38534 for Hybrid Microcircuits.
The device consists of a GaAsP LED optically coupled to an integrated circuit with a power output stage. The device is ideally suited for driving power IGBTs and MOSFETs used in motor control inverter applications. The high operating voltage range of the output stage provides the drive voltages required by gate controlled devices. The voltage and current supplied by this optocoupler makes it ideally suited for directly driving IGBTs with ratings up to 1200V/50A. For IGBTs with higher ratings, the HCPL-5151-300 can be used to drive a discrete power stage, which drives the IGBT gate.
