PVI5050NSPBF

The PVI5050NSPBF is a 1-channel 4-pin surface-mount Photovoltaic Isolator generates an electrically isolated DC voltage upon receipt of a DC input signal. It is capable of directly driving gates of power MOSFETs or IGBTs. It utilizes a monolithic integrated circuit photovoltaic generator of novel construction as its output. The output is controlled by radiation from a GaAlAs light emitting diode (LED), which is optically isolated from the photovoltaic generator. The PVI series is ideally suited for applications requiring high-current or high-voltage switching with optical isolation between the low-level driving circuitry and high-energy or high-voltage load circuits. It can be used for directly driving gates of power MOSFETs. The PVI series photovoltaic isolators employ fast turn-OFF circuitry. It is suitable for load distribution, current-to-voltage conversion and solid-state relay.
