BG2B â Universal Gate Drive Prototype Board
Description: The BG2B is a two channel gate drive circuit for high power IGBT modules. The BG2B utilizes
Powerex hybrid gate drivers and DC-to-DC converters to provide efficient switching of modules rated up to 400A. The
hybrid gate drivers include high speed opto-couplers for control signal isolation and desaturation detection to protect
the IGBT from short circuit conditions. The hybrid DC-to-DC converters provide fully isolated control power for each
driving channel. The BG2B also provides an isolated fault feedback signal.
Features:
ï· 1.5A, 3A or 5A Peak Output Current
ï· 2500VRMS isolation for control power and signals
ï· Standard AMP MTA .100â input connector
ï· Operates from a single 15 VDC or 24 VDC supply
ï· Wide output voltage swing +15V/-8V
ï· Compact Size 3â x 2.2â (76mm x 56mm)
Applications:
BG2B is designed for use with Powerex NF- and
A- series IGBT modules.
ï Use VLA106-15242 DC-to-DC converter for
operation with 15 VDC control power
ï Use VLA106-24242 DC-to-DC converter for
operation with 24 VDC control power
