Product details

5000Vrms isolation for motor-drive gate drive

The FOD3125SD from onsemi is a single-channel gate drive optocoupler in the OPTOPLANAR® series, built for driving IGBTs and MOSFETs in motor drives, inverters, and industrial power supplies. Its 5000Vrms isolation covers reinforced insulation requirements for mains-connected equipment, while the 3A peak output current directly drives medium-power gates without an external buffer stage.

Active production, surface-mount package

It ships in Tape & Reel or Cut Tape in an 8-SMD Gull Wing package for surface-mount assembly. The operating temperature range is -40°C to 125°C, covering industrial and outdoor enclosures. ROHS3 compliant.

Supply rail and forward current limits

The output supply voltage range is 15V to 30V, which matches typical IGBT gate drive rails (15V on, -5V to -8V off). The high/low output current is 2A each — enough for gate charges up to several microcoulombs. The LED forward voltage is 1.5V typical, with a maximum forward current of 25 mA. Keep the LED drive current within that limit to avoid degrading the optical coupling over time.

Frequently asked questions

Is FOD3125SD RoHS compliant?

Yes, it is ROHS3 compliant.

What is a direct replacement for FOD3125SD?

The FOD3125S is the closest functional sibling in the same OPTOPLANAR® series — same 5000Vrms isolation, same 3A peak output, same 60ns rise/fall, same 400ns propagation delay, same 35kV/µs CMTI. The primary difference is package: the FOD3125S ships in bulk, while the FOD3125SD comes in Tape & Reel or Cut Tape for surface-mount assembly. Both are active and UL approved.

What is the typical application for FOD3125SD?

Motor-drive IGBT/MOSFET gate drive, inverter power stages, industrial power supplies, and any isolated switch driving where 5000Vrms isolation and 3A peak output are needed. The 35kV/µs CMTI makes it suitable for high-dV/dt switching environments like half-bridge and three-phase inverter legs.
