Isolated gate driver SKYWORKS SI8284BD-AS for traction inverters and on board chargers in hybrid electric vehicles
Product Description
The Si828x family (Si8281/82/83/84) comprises isolated, high-current gate drivers with integrated system safety and feedback functions. These devices are ideal for driving Silicon Carbide (SiC) FETs, power MOSFETs, and IGBTs in a wide range of inverter and motor control applications. Utilizing Skyworks' proprietary silicon isolation technology, they support up to 5.0 kVrms withstand voltage per UL1577, offering superior performance, reduced variation with temperature and age, tighter part-to-part matching, and enhanced common-mode rejection. The Si828x family also integrates a DC-DC controller for simplified isolated supply implementation on the driver side. Options include user-adjustable frequency for emission minimization, soft-start for safety, and shutdown capability. The devices require minimal passive components and a miniature transformer.
