IGBTs are commonly used in power electronic applications such as Uninterruptible Power Supplies (UPS), Solar inverters, Inductive heating, Motor Control, HF Welding and other PWM applications that require high switching speeds. SSO's offering of Optically-Isolated IGBT Drivers provides high level of input to output isolation (5kVrms) between low voltage control circuits (such as microcontrollers) and the high voltage circuits of IGBTs and Power MOSFETs.

Our IGBT Drivers are composed of an infrared input LED optically coupled to an integrated circuit which utilizes a high speed driver, providing fast switching speeds. They are offered in a compact 8 pin DIP/SMD package.
