- Suitable for harsh environments: Wide operating temperature range makes it suitable for use in industrial environments.
- Meets safety standards: UL, cUL, and VDE certifications ensure compliance with safety regulations.
Additional Details:
The TLP250(F)(TP1.F) is designed with an internal shield that improves common-mode noise rejection. The device provides galvanic isolation between the control circuit and the high-voltage power circuit. The fast switching speed makes it suitable for high-frequency applications. The under-voltage lockout (UVLO) feature protects the driven IGBT or MOSFET from damage by preventing operation when the supply voltage is insufficient. Available in an 8-pin DIP package or a surface-mount SO8 package.
