ACPL-337J gate drive optocouplers are fed back to the controller using the same connector CN8. Six ACPL-337J gate drive optocouplers, IC3 to IC8 are used to drive the six IGBTs of the three-phase inverter, and IC9 is used to drive the braking IGBT. The evaluation board has an isolated DC/DC power supply MS57140-07F, IC1 to provide power for the gate drive optocouplers.
Figure 6: Block Diagram of ACPL-337J and SO-16 Package The ACPL-337J is a fully featured 4A smart gate drive optocoupler device capable of driving 600V, 650V, or 1200V, up to 200A IGBT directly. The device features rail-to-rail output, integrated LED driver, active Miller clamp, high desaturation (DESAT) blanking current source, and Under Voltage Lock-Out (ULVO) feedback control circuit, providing a complete cost-effective gate drive solution for motor control and power inverter applications.

Fuji Electric PIM Module EP2 Package Evaluation Board The ACPL-337J has an integrated input LED driver with high impedance input (VIN+) for interfacing with the controller. The LED driver's output (VLEDDRV) must be connected with the recommended split resistors to LED1 to achieve the rated high CMR performance of more than 50kV/µs.
+15V and –6V supplies by 15V Zener diodes ZD101 to ZD104. The +15V/–6V supplies are connected to the seven ACPL-337J to provide bipolar gate drive voltages. IC2 is a TA7805F voltage regulator to regulate the 20V input to 5V supply for the primary side of the ACPL-337J. Broadcom...
ACPL-337J Reference Manual Fuji Electric PIM Module EP2 Package Evaluation Board Chapter 3: Evaluation Board Test and Result 3.1 Switching Waveform The following figures show the turn on, turn off, and reverse recovery switching waveforms of the evaluation board with PIM 7MBR35XMA120-50.
7MBR35XMA120-50. The PIM was tested with 600V DC bus voltage and short circuit current of about 200A. The DESAT of ACPL-337J was triggered causing the output or V to soft shutdown. The primary side FAULT pin of the ACPL-337J was being pulled low, indicating a short circuit fault had occurred to the controller.
