AP1106A SCR GATE DRIVER
The BAP1106A A provides a
complete, field-tested
tested turnkey
solution to drive a single large
area thyristor device. This driver
accepts a logic level control
input (5 to 24V)V) and provides
isolated DC drive current
capable
apable of firing SCR's
SCR' up to
100mm.. The output gate drive
signal is applied through
thr a pulse
forming network that creates a
fast rising leading edge current
pulse (10Apk,pk, 15A/µSec
15A typ.)
into the SCR gate, maximizing
the device di/dt capability and
ensuring properr SCR turn on,
on as
well as providing DC holding
lding current
current. The on board DC/DC converter provides the
power required to properly drive the SCR while a high voltage transformer provides
isolation between the power supply and SCR. A high-speed optocoupler provides 15KV
isolation between the customer
customer-supplied logic signal and the SCR. An optional fiber
optic receiver input is available which allows customer connection of logic signal via
fiber optic cable. LED indicators display POWER ON and SCR ON status. The small
footprint assembly measures only 3.0” X 5.0”.
