The Broadcom gate drive opto-coupler contains an LED, which is optically coupled to an integrated circuit with a power output stage. This opto-coupler is ideally suited for driving IGBTs and power MOSFETs used in motor control inverter applications. The 100 kV/μs noise immunity prevent erroneous drive in noisy industrial environment. The voltage and high peak output current supplied by this opto-coupler make it ideally suited for driving IGBT directly.
