Latest Generation IGBT Gate Driver Boards Provide Total Control
for High Power IGBT Inverters

The AP1491 IGBT Gate Driver provides the highest level of integration available in the industry, packed with all the features required to develop leading edge IGBT inverter applications. These drivers go beyond the competition to provide Total Control of the inverter output power stage.

Aimed at providing industrial OEMs the ability to quickly develop high power industrial IGBT inverters, these boards provide fast, reliable, field-proven solutions, saving customer time and money during application development.

The AP1491 incorporates the isolated power supplies and protection features required for safe, reliable operation of IGBT power stages, plus isolated analog feedback of all critical power stage parameters, DC Bus Voltage, output phase Current and device Temperature. This board controls up to six IGBTs at currents in excess of 1400 Amps.
