Vishay's VOMDA1271 automotive grade photovoltaic MOSFET driver is designed to deliver high performance for automotive applications.
Features integrated turn-off circuit that enables a turn-off time of 0.7 ms typical, which is the fastest for a MOSFET driver in the compact SOP-4 footprint. Also provides a turn-on time of 0.05 ms — twice as fast as competing devices — and is said to be the only driver in this package size to offer an isolation voltage of 3750V and a typical open circuit output voltage of 8.5V. Is intended for use in pre-charge circuits, wall chargers, and battery management systems for electric and hybrid electric vehicles. Features an AIGaAs infrared LED (IRLED), which emits light that is absorbed by a photovoltaic gate array to turn on a MOSFET and simplifies designs and lowers costs by eliminating the need for an external power supply. Can be driven by a microcontroller's GPIO pin, and is RoHS-compliant, halogen-free, and Vishay Green.
