ACPL-332J-500E (BROADCOM LIMITED)

The ACPL-332J-500E is a 1-channel 16-pin surface-mount IGBT Gate Driver Optocoupler with integrated (VCE) de-saturation detection. The easy-to-use intelligent gate driver which makes IGBT VCE fault protection compact, affordable and easy-to implement. Features such as integrated VCE detection, under voltage lockout (UVLO), soft IGBT turn-OFF, isolated open collector fault feedback and active miller clamping provide maximum design flexibility and circuit protection. It contains an AlGaAs LED. The LED is optically coupled to an integrated circuit with a power output stage. It is ideally suited for driving power IGBTs and MOSFETs used in motor control inverter applications. The voltage and current supplied by these optocouplers make them ideally suited for directly driving IGBTs with ratings up to 1200V and 150A. For IGBTs with higher ratings, the ACPL-332J can be used to drive a discrete power stage which drives the IGBT gate. It has an insulation voltage of VIORM=1230Vpeak.
