Dual-Channel SCALE™-1 Driver Core
The SCALE drivers from CONCEPT are based on a chip set that was developed specifically for the reliable driving and safe operation of IGBTs and power MOSFETs. The name "SCALE" is an acronym for the most outstanding properties of the SCALE series of drivers: SCALE = Scaleable, Compact, All purpose, Low cost and Easy to use. The SCALE driver is a winning project of the competition organized by "Technology Center Switzerland 1998". And ABB Switzerland AG honored the development of the SCALE driver by distinguishing it as the "best power electronics project in 1998"

The 2SD315AI series comprises 2-channel SCALE-1 driver cores for IGBTs up to 1700 V (optionally to 3300 V). Its gate current capability of ± 15A is optimized for IGBTs from 200 A to typically 800 A. The two drive channels feature electrical isolation between the control electronics and the power section. The gate voltage is 0 / +15 V or ±15 V.
Each channel is equipped with a programmable Vce-monitoring function for protection against short circuit and overcurrent.
The driver is equipped with the award-winning CONCEPT SCALE-1 driver chipset and can be operated in two modes: either with two independent driver channels or as a half-bridge driver with internal dead-time generation.
The integrated electrically-isolated DC/DC converter supplies a drive power of 3 W per channel.
Highest Reliability
SCALE-1 drivers have been established as an industrial standard since 1999, and the 2SD315AI has been proven in numerous industrial and traction applications.
Recommendation
Do not use the 2SD315AI-25 or 2SD315AI-33 for new designs. Please use the 2SC0535T for new designs.
