IR Introduces Robust 600V Single-Channel ICs to Simplify Circuit Design.EL SEGUNDO El Segundo (ĕl sēgŭn`dō), industrial city (1990 pop. 15,223), Los Angeles co., S Calif., on Santa Monica Bay; inc. 1917. Its products include navigation and computer systems, aircraft parts, office machines, telephone apparatus, and , Calif. -- International Rectifier, IR([R]) (NYSE NYSE See: New York Stock Exchange :IRF IRF Interferon Regulatory Factor IRF International Religious Freedom IRF Institut for Rationel Farmakoterapi (German) IRF Inherited Rights Filter (Novell) IRF Inherited Rights Filter ), a world leader in power management technology, today introduced a series of robust single-channel high-voltage integrated circuits (HVIC HVIC High-Voltage Integrated Circuit ) for a wide range of applications including motor control, lighting, switch mode power supplies, industrial and welding, and solar panel battery chargers. Compared to optocouplers, the IRS An abbreviation for the Internal Revenue Service, a federal agency charged with the responsibility of administering and enforcing internal revenue laws. 211(7,8) family of 600V high-side single-channel driver ICs provide lower input current of 40 microamps and an output signal of 0 to 15 volts to reduce part count and simplify circuit design. The devices' lower quiescent current of 340 microamps, under-voltage lockout lockout, intentional closing up of a company, factory, or shop by an employer to prevent employees from working during a strike or labor dispute. The term lockout feature and maximum junction temperature (Tj) of 150 degrees C enable more robust and reliable performance. Additionally, the IRS2117 and IRS2118 feature common mode rejection of 50V/ns. "These new devices deliver more advantages than traditional optocoupler solutions including greater robustness while simplifying design, and round out IR's high-voltage driver IC family with a single-channel offering," said David Tam, vice president of Energy Saving Products. Proprietary latch immune CMOS (Complementary Metal Oxide Semiconductor) Pronounced "c-moss." The most widely used integrated circuit design. It is found in almost every electronic product from handheld devices to mainframes. technologies enable rugged monolithic construction. The output driver, which is logic input compatible with standard CMOS outputs, features a high-pulse current buffer stage designed for minimum cross-conduction. The floating channel can be used to drive an N-channel power MOSFET or IGBT IGBT Insulated Gate Bipolar Transistor IGBT Integrated Gate Bipolar Transistor in the high-side or low-side configuration, operating up to 600V. The new devices utilize IR's advanced high-voltage IC process which incorporates next-generation high-voltage level-shifting and termination technology to deliver superior electrical over-stress protection and higher field reliability. Data sheets for the devices are available on the website at http://www.irf.com/whats-new/nr070112.html. Availability and Pricing Pricing for the IRS211(7,8)PbF, IRS211(7,8)SPbF and IRS211(7,8)STRPbF begins at US$0.95 each in 10,000-unit quantities. Production orders are available immediately. The devices are RoHS compliant and prices are subject to change. About International Rectifier International Rectifier (NYSE:IRF) is a world leader in power management technology.
