% The PVI5013R Photovoltaic Isolator is a dual-channel, opto-isolated driver capable of directly driving gates of power MOSFETs or IGBTs. It utilizes a monolithic % integrated circuit photovoltaic generator of novel & ( ) construction as its output. The output is controlled by radiation from a GaAlAs light emitting diode (LED) ) which is optically isolated from the photovoltaic *+ , - ./. generator. The PVI5013R is ideally suited for applications requiring high-current and/or high voltage switching with optical isolation between the low-level driving circuitry and high-energy or high- voltage load circuits. It can be used for directly driving gates of power MOSFETs. The dual- channel configuration allows its outputs to drive independent discrete power MOSFETs, or be connected in parallel or in series to provide higher-current drive for power MOSFETs or higher-voltage drive for IGBTs. PVI5013R employs a fast turn-off circuitry. PVI5013R Photovoltaic Isolators are packaged in an 8-pin, molded DIP package with either thru-hole or surface-mount (gull-wing) terminals. It is available in standard plastic shipping tubes or on tape-and-reel. Please refer to Part Identification information opposite.
