A4506 Gate Drive Interface Optocoupler

The HCPL4506, A4506 and HCPL-0466 contain a GaAsP LED while the HCPL-J456 and the HCNW4506 con­tain an AlGaAs LED. The LED is optically coupled to an inte­grated high gain photo detector. Minimized propagation delay difference between devices makes these optocouplers excellent solutions for improving inverter efficiency through reduced switching dead time.

An on chip 20 kΩ output pull-up resistor can be enabled by shorting output pins 6 and 7, thus eliminating the need for an external pull-up resistor in common IPM applications. Specifications and performance plots are given for typical IPM applications.

Features:

1. Performance specified for bommon IPM applications over industrial temperature range: -40°C to 100°C
2. Fast maximum propagation delays tPHL = 480ns tPLH = 550ns
3. Minimized Pulse Width Distortion PWD = 450 ns
4. 15 kV/µs minimum common mode transient immunity at VCM = 1500 V
5. CTR > 44% at IF = 10mA

Applications:

1. IPM isolation
2. Isolated IGBT/MOSFET gate drive
3. AC and brushless DC motor drives
4. Industrial inverters
