IGBT power devices: RECOM’s DC/DC converters RH, RV, RP, RGZ, RKZ, RxxPxx, and RxxP2xx are specially designed for IGBT driver circuits. Their asymmetric outputs of +15V and -9V make them ideal to power IGBT drivers with only a single DC/DC converter. RECOM offers both SIP and DIP packages in a variety of pinouts to accommodate different IGBT applications. | SiC MOSFETs:
The RxxP22005D and RKZ-xx2005D series feature asymmetric outputs of +20V and -5V to switch the SiC MOSFET efficiently and effectively.
The RxxP21503D series provides asymmetric output voltages of +15V and -3V, which are needed to efficiently switch second-generation SiC MOSFETs. |
GaN HEMTs: High slew-rate GaN transistor drivers reach optimal performance, switching at +6V from RECOM’s DC/DC converters in the RP-xx06S and RxxP06S series featuring high isolation voltage and low isolation capacitance. In GaN applications where higher noise and interference must be considered, RECOM also offers converters with +9V output, which can be split up via a Zener diode to +6V and -3V to provide a negative gate voltage on turn-off, ensuring that the gate voltage stays below the turn-on threshold. |
The RA3 Series is optimized for gate drivers: RECOM’s new RA3 family of unregulated 3-watt DC/DC converters is specially designed to power transistor gate drivers. The modules are available with input voltages of 5, 12, or 24VDC with single or dual asymmetric outputs to cover the latest Si, SiC, and GaN transistors on the market today.
The compact SMD design ensures that required board space is minimal—especially on multilayer PCBs. The modules offer a robust 5.2kVDC/1min. isolation and an isolation capacitance of less than 10 pF. With typical efficiencies from 78% to 82%, the operating temperature range of -40°C to +85°C at full load meets strict environmental requirements for solar inverters as well as induction heating, telecom, EV battery chargers, and motor drives. |
R-REF01_HB evaluation board: The R-REF01-HB Half-Bridge Gate-Drive Power Supply Reference Design can be used to compare the real-life performance of various high power-switching technologies. The design consists of a half-bridge suitable for voltages up to 1kVDC and a fully isolated driver stage with isolated power supplies for the low-side and the high-side switching transistors.
The R-REF01-HB includes two R12P22005D, R12P21503D, R12P21509D, and R12P06S DC/DC converters and can generate gate drive voltages suitable for IGBTs and SiC and GaN devices. |
