Series PVI5013R
Solid-State
Opto-Isolated MOSFET Gate Driver
Dual-Channel
5V, 1.0µA
General Description
The PVI5013R Photovoltaic Isolator is a dualchannel, 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. Th e
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 lowlevel driving circuitry and high-energy or highvoltage load circuits. It can be used for directly
driving gates of power MOSFETs. The dualchannel 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-
