SM8025

SM8025 Optically Coupled Dual MOSFET Driver w/Discharge Circuit Description The SM8025 is composed of two distinct MOSFET drivers in a single package. Each driver circuit consists of an input drive LED optically coupled to a photodiode array output designed to drive highly capacitive loads, including the gate of a power MOSFET. The active discharge circuit of the PDAs assures quick discharge of MOSFETs, providing fast turn-off times. This device can be used as two separate drivers, or can be wired as a single enhanced driver with either greater photo current or photo voltage output. The SM8025 comes standard in a compact 8 pin DIP package making it ideal for high-density board applications.
