15A Sink/Source, Single-Channel, Reinforced Isolated SiC/IGBT Gate Driver

The CA-IS3213 is a series of capacitive isolation based single-channel gate drivers for driving SiC, IGBT and MOSFET devices. The devices offer excellent dynamic performance and high reliability, as well as Sink/Source peak current capability up to ±15A.

The devices are electrically isolated from the control and driver sides by SiO2 capacitive isolation technology, supporting an isolated operating voltage of 1.5kVRMS, 12.8kVPK surge immunity, and a rated gate life of more than 40 years at rated operating voltages, as well as good device consistency and common-mode transient immunity (CMTI) of >150kV/μs.

The device controls and drives side power UVLOs while being optimized for SiC and IGBT switching behavior and improved reliability. In addition, the CA-IS3213MCG has a built-in 4A peak current active Miller clamp; the CA-IS3213VCG has an external COM pin for easy isolation of the positive and negative driver-side power supplies; and the CA-IS3213SCG utilizes a split output configuration of OUTH and OUTL. 

The entire series is packaged in a SOIC8-WB wide body package with creepage and clearance distances greater than 8mm.
