EiceDRIVER™ gate driver IC technologies
Decades of application expertise and technology development at both Infineon and International Rectifier have produced a portfolio of gate driver ICs for use with both silicon and wide-bandgap power devices like MOSFETs, discrete IGBTs, IGBT modules, SiC MOSFETs, and GaN HEMTs. Infineon offers excellent product families with galvanic isolated gate drivers, automotive-qualified gate drivers, 200 V, 500–700 V, 1200 V level-shift gate drivers, and non-isolated low-side drivers.
The portfolio spans a variety of configurations, voltage classes, isolation levels, protection features, and package options. State-of-the-art discrete switch families require the tuning of gate drive circuits to take full advantage of their capacity and capabilities. An optimum gate drive configuration is essential for all power switches, whether they are in discrete form or in a power module.
