You can catch it via PDOException 

get the corresponding error code and handle it accordingly 

try { 
   // your code
} catch (PDOException $e) { 
    // $e->getCode() will give you the error code corresponding
    // handle the exception accordingly 

} 

If you just want the data to be inserted then you can go for INSERT IGNORE INTO tbl then datatype mismatches are simply ignored
