Revolutionary SCALE-iDriver ICs from Power Integrations Introduce High-Reliability SCALE-2 Driver Technology to 1200 V Applications
2016-05-10 | ReturnThis Smart News Release features multimedia. View the full release here: http://www.businesswire.com/news/home/20160510005454/en/

SCALE-iDriver single-channel gate driver ICs dramatically reduce component count for inverters up to 110 kW, saving space and BOM cost and increasing design flexibility. With the addition of a simple, low-cost booster stage, it is now far quicker to develop efficient, space-saving, reliable inverter designs rated up to 400 kW (15 A). The new devices meet the IEC 60664-1 and IEC 61800-5-1 standards, and operate from -40 °C to +125 °C and at frequencies of up to 250 kHz. They also feature Power Integrations’ Advanced Soft Shut Down (ASSD) mechanism that protects the power semiconductor switch in the event of a short circuit. ASSD is automatically triggered by monitoring desaturation levels and requires no extra components.
Comments Michael Hornkamp, senior director of marketing for high-power products at Power Integrations: “SCALE-iDriver ICs will revolutionize gate driver design. By pairing Power Integrations’ SCALE™ technology – which already incorporates all key gate-driver functions into an ASIC – with accurate, high-speed FluxLink communication, we have increased performance and reliability by an order of magnitude when compared to devices that use opto- or silicon-isolated capacitive or magnetic couplers. Bi-directional communication results in fast, efficient, accurate switching and minimizes signal jitter. The wide FluxLink isolation gap delivers exceptional robustness, and the use of low-profile packaging technology enables basic two-layer PCBs to be used, reducing size and system cost.”
SCALE-iDriver ICs suit applications in industrial drives, power supplies and UPS, photovoltaic inverters of all sizes, industrial HVAC, EV charging and traction equipment including commercial EVs. SID1132K (2.5 A), SID1152K (5 A), SID1182K (8 A) devices are available and priced at $2.57 in 10,000-piece quantities. Reference designs RDHP-1608 (2.5 A, 5 A and 8 A versions) and RDHP-1526 (15 A) and technical support for SCALE-iDriver ICs are available from the Power Integrations website at https://www.power.com/products/scale-idriver/.
