Richardson RFPD Introduces All-in-One Gate Driver Modules for Si and SiC from Tamura

DM Series features built-in DC-DC converters and drive circuits

June 27, 2018 – Geneva, Ill.: Richardson RFPD, Inc. announced today the availability and full design support capabilities for a new series of gate driver modules from Tamura Corporation.

The DM Series of gate driver modules from Tamura features built-in DC-DC converters and drive circuits, making it possible to drive using only a few external components.

The new series of gate driver modules includes:

Part Number                                               Output Voltage                                       Application

2DM150606CM                                             +18 V / -5 V                                       SiC power module

2DM150806CM                                             +18 V / -2 V                                       SiC power module

2DM180206CM                                             +15 V / -8 V                                      IGBT power module

2DM180506CM                                             +15 V / -6 V                                      IGBT power module

The new DM Series modules are suitable for a range of applications, including power conditioner for industrial use, various inverters and various motor drives.

Additional key features of the DM Series include:

  • 5 V logic input
  • Over current protection by DESAT detection
  • Miller clamp circuit
  • Low common mode noise (parasitic capacitance: 15 pF TYP)
  • Fast response (100 ns TYP)
  • Dielectric withstand voltage: AC2500 Vrms
