DESCRIPTION
The VO3120 consists of a LED optically coupled to an APPLICATIONS
integrated circuit with a power output stage. This Isolated IGBT/MOSFET gate driver
optocoupler is ideally suited for driving power IGBTs and AC and brushless DC motor drives
MOSFETs used in motor control inverter applications. The
Induction stove top
high operating voltage range of the output stage provides
the drive voltages required by gate controlled devices. The Industrial inverters
voltage and current supplied by this optocoupler makes it Switch mode power supplies (SMPS)
ideally suited for directly driving IGBTs with ratings up to Uninterruptible power supplies (UPS)
800 V/50 A. For IGBTs with higher ratings, the VO3120 can
be used to drive a discrete power stage which drives the AGENCY APPROVALS
IGBT gate. UL - file no. E52744 system code H, double protection
cUL - file no. E52744, equivalent to CSA bulletin 5A

Note
The thermal characteristics table above were measured at 25 C and the thermal model is represented in the thermal network below. Each
resistance value given in this model can be used to calculate the temperatures at each node for a given operating condition. The thermal
resistance from board to ambient will be dependent on the type of PCB, layout and thickness of copper traces. For a detailed explanation
of the thermal model, please reference Vishay's Thermal Characteristics of Optocouplers application note.

Notes
Minimum and maximum values were tested over recommended operating conditions (TA = - 40 C to 110 C, IF(ON) = 7 mA to 16 mA,
VF(OFF) = - 3 V to 0.8 V, VCC = 15 V to 32 V, VEE = ground) unless otherwise specified. Typical values are characteristics of the device and are
the result of engineering evaluations. Typical values are for information only and are not part of the testing requirements. All typical values
were measured at Tamb = 25 C and with VCC - VEE = 32 V.
(1) Maximum pulse width = 50 s, maximum duty cycle = 0.5 %.
(2) Maximum pulse width = 10 s, maximum duty cycle = 0.2 %. This value is intended to allow for component tolerances for designs with
IO peak minimum = 2.5 A.
(3) In this test V
OH is measured with a dc load current. When driving capacitive loads VOH will approach VCC as IOH approaches zero A. Maximum
pulse width = 1 ms, maximum duty cycle = 20 %.
