Small advantages for SO-8 packaged
optocoupler
Device addresses isolation needs where space and efficiency are a premium, such as motor drives, industrial inverters, air conditioners, washing machines and switching power supplies.
Avago Technologies is claiming the industry's smallest 2.5A-gate-drive optocoupler in the shape of the SO-8-packaged ACPL-H312 - which is 40% smaller than conventional dual-inline packaged devices With undervoltage lockout and low current consumption, Avago's ACPL-H312 effectively addresses isolation needs where space and efficiency are a premium, such as in IGBT/power MOSFET gate drives, AC and brushless DC motor drives, industrial inverters, air conditioners, washing machines and switching power supplies
