BG2C â Universal Gate Drive Prototype Board
Description: The BG2C is a two channel gate drive circuit designed for use with high frequency optimized IGBT
modules. The BG2C utilizes Powerex VLA513-01R hybrid gate drivers and VLA106 series DC- to- DC converters
to provide efficient switching of modules rated up to 300A. The hybrid gate drivers include high speed opto-couplers
with typical propagation delay times as short as 200ns for control signal isolation. The hybrid DC-to-DC converters
provide fully isolated control power for each driving channel.
Features:
ï· 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· Low parts count â only 17 parts for two channels
ï· Compact Size 2.7â x 2.4â (69mm x 61mm)
Applications:
BG2C is designed for use with Powerex NFH series
and CM***DUS-12F high frequency 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
