HCPL A316J Gate Drive Optocoupler 

HCPL A316J 2.5 Ampere Gate Drive Optocoupler with Desaturation Detection and fault status feedback

HCPL A316J IC is Avago’s 2.5 Amp Gate Drive Optocoupler with Integrated Desaturation (VCE) Detection and Fault Status Feedback makes IGBT VCE fault protection compact, affordable, and easy-to-implement while satisfying worldwide safety and regulatory requirements. The HCPL-316J is an easy-to-use, intelligent gate driver which makes IGBT VCE fault protection compact, affordable, and easy-to-implement. Features such as user configurable inputs, integrated VCE detection, under voltage lockout (UVLO), “soft” IGBT turn-off and isolated fault feedback provide maximum design flexibility and circuit protection.

We have various types of Optocoupler IC's. Check our complete collection of Optocouplers & Optoisolator IC.
