How It Works
The TLP250H transfers control signals through an internal optical link. When the input LED receives a signal from a microcontroller or PWM controller, the internal photodetector activates the output driver stage.
This output stage can directly drive the gate of an IGBT or MOSFET while maintaining electrical isolation between the low-voltage control circuit and the high-voltage power circuit. This helps protect sensitive electronics and improves overall system safety.
