Broadcom ACPL-337J | Demoboard EB600-337J

Description

The EB600-337J evaluation driver board with integrated DC bus, shown in Figure 1, is developed to support Broadcom customers during their first steps in designing inverter applications with the ACPL-337J gate drivers. Board properties and typical performance are described in this reference manual. Information related to design is given with an aim to enable customers to copy and modify the design specifics according to their technical requirements and use it in their own designs.

Features

• Seven isolated ACPL-337J gate drivers with the following features:
• DESAT (short circuit protection)
• Undervoltage lock out (UVLO)
• Active Miller clamp
• Fault and UVLO status feedback signalThe ACPL-C87A optical amplifier enables isolated temperature measurement with the following features:– 0 to 2V nominal input range– 100-kHz bandwidth– 3V to 5.5V wide supply range for the output side– 15-kV/μs common-mode transient immunity
• Electrically and mechanically suitable for 600V PIM 1B modules (FP30R06W1E3/FP15R06W1E3).
• 24V/5V DC-DC power supply with current limit protection and thermal shutdown.
• Isolated power supplies for gate drivers.
• Access to PWM input signals.
• Access to drivers' fault and UVLO output signals for protection and control development purposes.
• An integrated DC bus with access to DC bus terminals.
• Access to the brake chopper terminal.
• Easy access to leg current using a Rogowski coil probe for switching characteristics evaluation.

Typical applications

• Switching power supplies
• Industrial inverters, AC and brushless DC motor drives, Isolated IGBT/Power MOSFET gate drives
