The TLP700(F) is an optically isolated MOSFET and IGBT gate driver that is designed to expand the electrical isolation between the control circuit and the drive circuit, while providing reliable gate drive voltages. This device supports high-side, low-side, and full-bridge control, making it ideal for motor drive and power supply applications such as ac-dc converters, phase-shifted full-bridge (PSFB) converter control circuits, solar inverter circuits, and other applications.
The TLP700(F) is made up of an input stage IC (optical isolator) and an output stage IC, with a drive circuit between them. The input IC provides electrical isolation between the control circuit and the drive circuit, while the output IC drives the gate with a high drive voltage. The TLP700(F) is also designed with a robust gate driver circuit that provides high-current drive capabilities and suppresses parasitic oscillations.
The basic working principle of the TLP700(F) is that an input signal is received by the input section, which is isolated from the output section by a photo coupler. The isolated input signal triggers the drive circuit, which in turn drives the MOSFET or IGBT through the output section. The gate driver circuit provides adequate drive characteristics while suppressing parasitic oscillations. Additionally, the isolated gate drive section provides enhanced isolation between the control and drive circuits.
There are a wide range of application areas that the TLP700(F) is applicable for. These include motor drive and power supply circuits, such as ac-dc converters, phase-shifted full-bridge (PSFB) converter control circuits, solar inverter circuits, and other applications. The TLP700(F) is also well-suited for controlling high side and low side MOSFETs, as well as full-bridge control circuits. The TLP700(F) is also ideal for system designs that require very low on-state resistance and high-side gate drive for improved efficiency and power conversion.
Due to its robust design and high-performance features, the TLP700(F) is the ideal device for applications that require electrical isolation between control and drive circuits while providing reliable gate drive voltages. The TLP700(F) provides high-current drive capabilities, suppress parasitic oscillations, and provides enhanced isolation between the control and drive circuits. Therefore, the TLP700(F) is ideal for ac-dc converters, phase-shifted full-bridge (PSFB) converter control circuits, solar inverter circuits, and other applications.
