Gate Driver ICs for MOSFETs

Overview

Best-in-class gate driver ICs for high voltage and low voltage MOSFET

Our EiceDRIVER™ gate driver family includes isolated gate driver ICs, level shift gate driver ICs and non isolated gate driver ICs optimized for high voltage and low voltage MOSFETs in all application. Gate Driver ICs are availabel in different configurations and offer features like low undervoltage lockout (UVLO) option for MOSFETs (5 V), fast propagation delay, integrated bootstrap diode with SOI technology, high driving current, and over current protection. These features are very important when driving MOSFETs, especially for applications like PFC, switch mode power supplies (SMPS), battery powered application, computing, motor control and drives, lighting, and solar micro inverter.

We also offer automotive qualified gate driver ICs. The trend towards greater efficiency in automotive applications also concerns electric motors. Applications such as power steering, HVAC compressors and engine cooling fans will be controlled by electronic motors in the future. The configurable, H-bridge and three-phase automotive gate driver IC's can be combined with automotive MOSFETs to provide the power and efficiency these systems demand.
