FOD8316R2V

FOD8316R2V is a high-speed optically isolated gate-driver IC from the FOD family (Fairchild/ON Semiconductor). It is used to drive power transistors (IGBTs/MOSFETs) in isolated switch-mode power supplies, motor drives, inverters, and similar circuits. The device provides an isolated interface between a logic/control side and a power side, translating a logic input into a robust gate-drive signal with sufficient current to charge and discharge gate capacitances quickly. It typically comes in a compact package (e.g., SO-8) and is designed for standard logic-level inputs, with the isolation barrier allowing a safe separation of control and power domains. For exact specifications—such as isolation voltage, input/output drive current, propagation delay, supply voltages, and protection features—consult the official datasheet from the manufacturer.

Pin count: 8 pins.
Function: The FOD8316R2V is a dual‑channel logic‑gate optocoupler — two independent LED input/isolated photodiode (or phototransistor/logic) output channels that provide TTL/CMOS‑compatible isolated logic signals for interfacing and protecting low‑voltage circuitry from high‑voltage or noisy domains.
