Microchip Technology presents the 3.3 kV XIFM plug-and-play mSiC port driver with patented Augmented Switching technology, designed to work out of the box with pre-configured module configurations to significantly reduce design and evaluation time.
To accelerate time to market, the complex work of design development, testing and qualification of a gate drive circuit design has already been completed with this plug-and-play solution. The XIFM Digital Gate Driver is a compact solution that features digital control, an integrated power supply, and a robust fiber optic interface that improves noise immunity. This gate driver has preconfigured “on/off” gate drive profiles that are tailored to optimize module performance.
It incorporates 10.2 kV primary-secondary reinforced insulation with integrated monitoring and protection functions, including temperature and DC link monitoring, undervoltage lockout (UVLO), overvoltage lockout (OVLO), short circuit/overcurrent protection ( DISAT) and negative temperature. Coefficient (NTC). This gate operator also complies with EN 50155, a key specification for railway applications.
The XIFM 3.3 kV plug-and-play mSiC gate driver is now available for purchase.
