Datasheet Summary
Optically Coupled Dual MOSFET Driver w/Discharge Circuit
Description
The SM8026 is posed 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 SM8026 es standard in a pact 8 pin DIP package making it ideal for high-density board...
