Isolated Igbt Gate Driver

The gate is the electrically isolated control terminal for each device.

Isolated igbt gate driver.

Isolated gate drivers enable low voltage microcontrollers to safely switch high voltage power transistors on and off. The other terminals of a mosfet are source and drain and for an igbt they are called collector and emitter. Build smaller more robust designs for many applications using our flexible and universally compatible isolated gate drivers. An igbt power mosfet is a voltage controlled device that is used as a switching element in power supply circuits and motor drives amongst other systems.

An isolated driver the adum4137 solves the problem of high side gate drive by means of galvanic isolation. They also provide extensive diagnostic features to help enhance system robustness and reliability. From basic and functional isolation to reinforced isolation our isolated gate drivers allow you to create designs that protect from electrical shock while providing more protection for high voltage levels. Robust strong and precise single and dual channel isolated gate driver ics for mosfets igbts igbt modules sic mosfets and gan hemts eicedriver galvanically isolated gate drivers use the magnetically coupled coreless transformer ct technology to provide signal transfer across the galvanic isolation.

Safe switching of high speed silicon carbide sic and gallium nitride gan transistors places an extra requirement on isolated gate driver ics.
