Photovoltaic generators drive isolated mosfet gates in as little as 100μs

Panasonic has introduced a pair of photovoltaic drivers for operating mosfet gates with voltage isolation. Each consists of an LED and a stack of photodiodes, plus output control circuity. APV1111GVY has a comparatively high output current – 45μA (or 8.5V) – for fast gate charging leading to fast mosfet turn-on. APV3111GVY has a comparatively high ...
