The BCM8485x series Multi-gigabit Ethernet PHYs from Broadcom is designed for high-speed communication over copper cables. They support data rates of up to 10 Gbps and are compliant with IEEE 802.3bz. The BCM8485x series also supports Power over Ethernet (PoE) and PoE+ for powering remote devices.
Features
The main features of BCM8485x series Multi-gigabit Ethernet PHYs may be summarized as follows:
The ACPL series IGBT/MOSFET gate drivers from Broadcom are optocouplers that are ideally suited for driving power IGBTs and MOSFETs used in motor control inverter applications. The ACPL-355JC is a 10A gate drive optocoupler device with integrated fail-safe IGBT and SiC MOSFET diagnostics, protection, and fault reporting. The device features common mode transient immunity (CMTI) greater than 100 kV/μs and provides minimal propagation delay with excellent timing skew. The ACPL-W314 gate drive optocoupler consists of a GaAsP LED optically coupled to an integrated circuit with a power output stage.
Applications
Broadcom gate drivers optocouplers are ideally suitable for driving power IGBTs and MOSFETs in inverter and converter applications. The ACPL-355JC is a 10A gate drive optocoupler device with integrated fail-safe IGBT and SiC MOSFET diagnostics, protection, and fault reporting. The ACPL-P349 is a high-speed 2.5A gate drive optocoupler device that contains an AlGaAs LED, which is optically coupled to an integrated circuit with a power output stage. These devices are ideally suited for driving SiC/GaN (Silicon Carbide / Gallium Nitride) MOSFETs and IGBTs used in power conversion applications.
