You do realize the P channel MOSFET requires a different drive than the N 
channel?  One of the big (very big) advantages of using something like the 
IR2110 is that you can use N channels on both the high and low sides taking 
advantage of the far better N channel devices.

Oops I think I misread the above.  I'd skip using the optos and PFets and 
go directly to using the 2110.  Or I'd not use the 2110.  You will probably 
have enough to do getting one drive circuit to work along with the rest of 
what you want to do.

What do you mean you can't get a square wave?  Are you referring to duty 
cycle or the rise and fall of the edges?  If it's duty cycle just adjust 
your timing.

I'm more concerned about your frequency.  If you are driving some sort of 
DC (brushless, Switched reluctance etc) motor 50Hz is likely to produce a 
significant amount of ripple.

Just a note: IR does make 3 phase drivers.

You actually need 3 full H bridges, not 1/2H bridges?

Umm, the 2110 does provide isolation for up to 600V.  That should be 
sufficient for 100V supply.  IR does have app notes showing hookups for the 
2110 and this is the usual configuration.

The ground (return) for the motor supply is separate from that for the 
control circuit?  Then for a 3-phase system running with a 50Hz square wave 
you are probably going to need between 4 and 6 isolated 12 to 15V supplies 
to run the gates.  At that point I would think something like Agilents 
optoisolated gate drivers would make more sense.

Running a pwm would allow you to get rid of 3 of those supplies.
