Infineon EiceDRIVER gate driver ICs Selection guide 2019 Every switch needs a driver www.infineon.com/gatedriver www.infineon.com/gdbrochure Dear Customer and Partner, Power electronics applications employ power device switches. And power device switches require optimum gate drive solutions. Applications such as battery-driven power tools, small and major home appliances, computing and telecom servers, EV charging, solar, and robotics all have special requirements. An optimum gate drive configuration is essential for all power switches, whether they are in discrete form or in a power module. State-of-the art discrete switch families including CoolMOS and OptiMOS silicon MOSFETs, TRENCHSTOP IGBTs, CoolGaN gallium nitride HEMTs, and CoolSiC silicon carbide MOSFETs as well as open-frame modules such as Easy and Econo power modules, require tuning of gate drive circuits to take full advantage of their capacity and capabilities. One of the most common questions for our new wide-bandgap power devices such as CoolGaN or CoolSiC is how do you drive one of these Roland Stele Infineon gate drivers provide a wide range of typical output current options, GM and VP from 0.1-A up to 10-A, suitable for any power device size. Robust gate drive Gate Driver ICs protection features such as fast short-circuit protection, programmable Industrial Power Control dead-time, shoot-through protection, and active shutdown, make the drivers well-suited for all power devices, includingCoolGaN andCoolSiC. Infineon gate drivers also provide advanced features such as integrated bootstrap diodes, enable and fault reporting functions, input filters, OPAMP and DESAT functions. Active Miller clamps and separate sink and source outputs options TM also provide design flexibility for all applications. Infineon EiceDRIVER family of gate drivers makes it easier for our customers to drive all power switches and power modules.
