Hi Forum,
I'm a physicist at an Austrian University, and would greatly appreciate your help with a circuit I planed (shown in "Fig. 1 - circuit") - especially with one component where I'm not sure how to integrate it.
What I need is a signal generator that supplies a relatively high capacity (~200 V at ~1 A), while having as low rise and fall times as possible. Therefore I want to use an IXYS IXZ4DF12N100 (https://www.electro-tech-online.com/custompdfs/2010/04/ixz4df12n100.pdf) as a driver and MOSFET combination.
Now my questions:
1. Will the output of the ADUM correctly switch my IXYS?
2. How important is the coil prior to IN-VCC? (data-sheet --> Fig. 15)
3. How important are all the electrolytic capacitors? (data-sheet --> Fig. 15)
4. May I leave IN-GND unconnected, or do I really have to connect it with ground over a choke coil? It is internally connected with DGND anyway.
Is there anything else I could improve?
Kind regards,
Snorri
