ACPL-K312 -500E application field and working principle

Isolators - Gate Drivers are a key component in design and control of power electronic applications. In particular, isolators, such as the ACPL-K312-500E, are increasingly being used to help reduce power loss, increase system reliability, and provide better control of the power flow. This article will discuss the ACPL-K312-500E application field and outline its working principle.

Application Field

The ACPL-K312-500E is an isolated, full-bridge gate driver designed to provide reliable control of motorized loads and high-voltage systems. It is suitable for motor control applications, such as electric vehicles and industrial robotics, as well as for protection of sensitive electronics. It also supports the electrical isolation of sensitive circuits, for applications in medical equipment, communication devices, and industrial automation.

The ACPL-K312-500E is an ideal solution for bringing together motor control and high-voltage application elements, as it offers separate driver boards, built-in protection circuitry, and support for any voltage and current combination up to 480mV/3A. Additionally, it features an isolated single-ended input connection to permit a direct connection to standard digital logic inputs, such as LVDS, LVCMOS, TTL, and LVTTL.

Working Principle

The working principle of the ACPL-K312-500E isolator is relatively simple: the device enables the efficient control of high-voltage systems by providing an isolated bridge between a low-voltage control signal and the high-voltage load, such as the motor. During operation, the ACPL-K312-500E employs a pair of active MOSFETs to act as a switch to control the load voltage and current. The low-voltage control signal determines the timing and state of these MOSFETs, allowing for dynamic control of the motor.

To protect against voltage transients and other potentially damaging conditions, the ACPL-K312-500E also contains built-in protection features, including under voltage and overvoltage lockout, overcurrent protection, and dual supply-voltage monitoring. In the event of a short circuit, the device will also shut down and latch off the system until it is reset, providing reliable system integrity.

In summary, the ACPL-K312-500E brings together a wide range of features, making it a highly reliable and versatile solution for controlling high-voltage loads. Its combination of built-in protections and isolated bridge makes it an ideal choice for applications requiring both safety and performance.
