HCPL-5120, HCPL-5121 and 5962-04204
2.0 Amp Output Current IGBT Gate Drive
Hermetically Sealed Optocoupler
Data Sheet
Description
The HCPL-5120 contains a GaAsP LED optically coupled
to an integrated circuit with a power output stage. The
device is ideally suited for driving power IGBTs and
MOSFETs used in motor control inverter applications.
The high operating voltage range of the output stage
provides the drive voltages required by gate controlled
devices. The voltage and current supplied by this opto-
coupler makes it ideally suited for directly driving IGBTs
with ratings up to 1200 V/100 A. For IGBTs with higher
ratings, the HCPL-5120 can be used to drive a discrete
power stage, which drives the IGBT gate.
The products are capable of operation and storage over
the full military temperature range and can be purchased
as either commercial products, with full MIL-PRF-38534
Class H testing, or from Defense Supply Center Colum-
bus (DLA) Standard Microcircuit Drawing (SMD) 5962-
04204. All devices are manufactured and tested on a
MIL-PRF-38534 certified line and are included in the DLA
Qualified Manufacturers List, QML-38534 for Hybrid Mi-
crocircuits.

Notes:
1. No derating required for typical case-to-ambient thermal resistance (
CA
=140C/W). Refer to Figure 35.
2. Maximum pulse width = 10s, maximum duty cycle = 0.2%. This value is intended to allow for component tolerances for designs with I
