The FOD3182 is a 3A output current high-speed MOSFET Gate Drive Optocoupler consists of an aluminium gallium arsenide (AlGaAs) LED (LED) optically coupled to a CMOS detector with PMOS and NMOS output power transistors integrated circuit power stage. It is ideally suited for high frequency driving of power MOSFETS used in Plasma Display Panels (PDPs), motor control inverter applications and high performance DC-DC converters. The device is packaged in an 8-pin dual in-line housing compatible with 260°C reflow processes for lead free solder compliance. High noise immunity characterized by 50kV/μs (typical) common mode rejection. Use of P-Channel MOSFETs at output stage enables output voltage swing close to the supply rail (rail-to-rail output). Undervoltage lockout protection (UVLO) with hysteresis, optimized for driving MOSFETs.
