Mitsubishi IGBT CM1800DY with ACPL-339J and ACPL-C87A Gate Drive Reference Board

Mitsubishi CM1800DY line of high power IGBT is used in high power electronic equipment such as trains and large-sized industrial machines. These applications require high voltage and current which can be supported by the CM1800DY which has rated VCES of 1700V and IC of 1800A. The ACPL-339J is uniquely designed to support MOSFET buffer of various current ratings. The ACPL-339J makes it easier for engineers to design high power system using one hardware platform by interchanging the MOSFET buffers to drive large IGBT like the CM1800DY. This concept maximizes gate drive design scalability for power conversion applications ranging from low to high power ratings. The ACPL-C87A voltage sensors are optical isolation amplifiers designed specifically for voltage sensing
