Preliminary Data Sheet
Compact, high-performance, plug-and-play dual-channel IGBT driver based on
SCALE™-2 technology for individual and parallel-connected modules in 2-level,
3-level and multilevel converter topologies
Abstract
The SCALE™-2 plug-and-play driver 2SP0320x2Ax-12 is a compact dual-channel intelligent gate driver
designed for 1200V IGBT modules from Danfoss, Fuji or Infineon. The driver features an electrical interface
(2SP0320T) or a fiber-optic interface (2SP0320V and 2SP0320S) with a built-in DC/DC power supply.
The turn-on and turn-off gate resistors of both channels are not assembled in order to provide
maximum flexibility. They must be assembled by the user before start of operation.
Please refer to
the paragraph on “Gate Resistor Assembly” for the recommended gate resistors.
For drivers adapted to other types of high-power and high-voltage IGBT modules, refer to
www.IGBT-Driver.com/go/plug-and-play

Preliminary Data Sheet
Safety Notice!
The data contained in this data sheet is intended exclusively for technically trained staff. Handling all high-
voltage equipment involves risk to life. Strict compliance with the respective safety regulations is mandatory!
Any handling of electronic devices is subject to the general specifications for protecting electrostatic-sensitive
devices according to international standard IEC 60747-1, Chapter IX or European standard EN 100015 (i.e. the
workplace, tools, etc. must comply with these standards). Otherwise, this product may be damaged.
Important Product Documentation
This data sheet contains only product-specific data. For a detailed description, must-read application notes and
common data that apply to the whole series, please refer to “Description & Application Manual for 2SP0320T
SCALE-2 IGBT Drivers” (electrical interface) or “Description & Application Manual for 2SP0320V and 2SP0320S
SCALE-2 IGBT Drivers” (fiber-optic interface) on
www.IGBT-Driver.com/go/2SP0320.
The gate resistors on this gate driver are not assembled in order to provide maximum flexibility. For the gate
resistors required for specific IGBT modules, refer to the paragraph on “Gate Resistor Assembly”. Use of gate
resistors other than those specified may result in failure.
