Description
The HCPL‑T251 contains GaAsP LED. The LED is optically
coupled to an integrated circuit with a power output stage.
This optocoupler 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 small
or medium power IGBTs.
