NOVOSENSE Isolated Amplifiers & Drivers

NSi6801B-DSWFR

NOVOSENSE NSi6801B-DSWFR single-channel reinforced isolated gate driver, 5 A peak, 5.7 kV isolation and a high CMTI, drop-in for an opto driver.

The NSi6801B-DSWFR is a NOVOSENSE single-channel reinforced isolated gate driver that sources and sinks a 5 A peak current, in a small package, and it is pin-compatible with a popular opto-coupled gate driver for a drop-in upgrade. It uses the NOVOSENSE capacitive isolation barrier with an on-off-keying modulation, so it provides a high noise immunity, a low radiated emission and a common-mode transient immunity of at least 150 kV/us, which keeps the gate signal clean in a fast-switching power stage. The driver side operates with a supply voltage up to 32 V and includes an under-voltage lockout, and the propagation delay is about 75 ns with a pulse-width distortion of about 30 ns, so it suits a high-frequency MOSFET, IGBT or SiC gate. The device operates over -40 °C to 125 °C, and the reinforced isolation and the robust CMTI make it a clean and long-life alternative to an opto driver in a motor drive, an inverter, a power supply or an automotive power stage. Typical applications include gate drive for MOSFET, IGBT and SiC devices, motor drives and inverters and industrial and automotive power conversion. Every device BeiLuo ships is factory-traceable and includes an import declaration, a certificate of origin and a RoHS compliance file. Our FAE team helps you choose the UVLO level and plan the gate drive and the layout.

FAE Professional Review

The NSi6801B-DSWFR is a clean, long-life replacement for an opto gate driver, with a 5 A peak drive, a fast 75 ns propagation and a very high CMTI. It is pin-compatible with a popular opto part, so it is a drop-in upgrade. Confirm the UVLO level for the device you drive, keep the gate loop short and place the driver close to the gate.

Frequently Asked Questions

What projects suit the NSi6801B-DSWFR?

It suits the gate drive of a MOSFET, an IGBT or a SiC device in a motor drive, an inverter or a power supply, where a 5 A peak drive, a fast propagation and a high CMTI are needed and the reinforced isolation protects the controller.

Confirm the UVLO level for your device.

Request this driver for your design

Can it replace an opto gate driver?

Yes. The NSi6801 is pin-compatible with a popular opto-coupled gate driver, so it is a drop-in upgrade that avoids the aging of an opto LED and the higher radiated emission, while giving a fast propagation and a high CMTI.

Our FAE team can help with the replacement.
