The ACPL-32JT expands Avago’s automotive R2Coupler™ family of products and is intended to further simplify automotive multi-channel IGBT driver board design. By integrating the flyback controller, the ACPL-32JT allows fewer discrete components and small high-efficiency transformer to be placed next to the IC thereby reducing the overall footprint and minimizing electromagnetic interference (EMI) and noise coupling between the IGBT channels. The ACPL-32JT enables automotive power module designers to develop highly compact energy-efficient 6-channel IGBT driver modules.
More than 50 automotive manufacturers and suppliers for EV, HEV and PHEV have adopted or are designing in Avago’s automotive R2Coupler products in battery management system, powertrain traction inverter, converter, charger, air conditioner compressor, heater, oil pump, CAN bus interface, analog sensing and fault feedback system.
