Description

The ACPL-W340-500E is an electronic component model that belongs to the isolators - gate drivers product category. It consists of an optocoupler with an AlGaAs LED, integrated with a power output stage. This optocoupler is designed for driving power IGBTs and MOSFETs in motor control inverter applications. With a high operating voltage range, it provides the necessary drive voltages for gate-controlled devices. The ACPL-W340-500E is particularly suitable for directly driving IGBTs with ratings up to 1200 V / 50 A and can also be used to drive a discrete power stage for higher-rated IGBTs. It has a high insulation voltage, with VIORM = 1140 Vpeak according to IEC/EN/DIN EN 60747-5-2 standards.
