can anybody tell how to connect between irf740 and tlp250.
 

yes......to drive mosfet irf740 with tlp250
 

you can have look at this -
**broken link removed**
you can replace the pwm controller by your opto-coupler...should work for you

Good Luck

Dear friends!
Hi
If your GS junction connect to the +15 volt , it will be turn on . if you turn on the LED of that opto coupler , its out put will be about vcc ( such as +15 volts) . and you should give its out put to the gate of your mosfet instead of source . you should be ensure that the voltage across the GS junction is some thing like +15 volts ( exactly).

This is the typical connection:


eg. Input + could be a signal coming from a PWM chip, a microcontroller or any circuitry needing to turn the MOSFET on. Input - could be connected to the ground to which that circuitry is connected to.

You can help other types of loads as well, like inductive. If you have a motor or relay, connect an anti-parallel diode across that relay.

Hope this helps.

In the circuit diagram using TLP250 as gate drive opto-isolator driving IRF740, whether at output of TLP250 pull-up resistor is required or not.
 

Hi my friend!
Is your mean by the out put resistor , the series resistor with the gate of your mosfet? if yes , yes it is important and it will have low value , to limit the gate current.

The output of TLP250 does not need a pull-up because the output stage of the TLP250 is a totem-pole stage. Plus, having a pull-up would be bad, since, when TLP250 is off, MOSFET would be on. This isn't required at all since TLP250 has a totem-pole output stage. However, a pull-down resistor has been provided from gate to source of the MOSFET to prevent it from accidental turn-on under any circumstance.

Hope this helps.

Somebody please tell me what is the use of that 1K resistor connected between the mosfet gate and ground?

Can you explain more on this? How does it turn on accidentally?

Due to noise. And the internal drain-to-gate "Miller capacitance". A similar experience is narrated in Sanajaya Maniktala's "Switching Power Supplies A to Z". This is also talked of in Raymond Mack's "Switching Power Supplies Demystified".

Hope this helps.
