Gate Drivers
Gate drivers are electronic circuits that apply correct power levels to metal-oxide field-effect transistors (MOSFETs) and insulated gate bipolar transistors (IGBTs). With power-MOSFETs, gate drivers can be implemented as transformers, discrete transistors, or dedicated integrated circuits (IC).
Product & engineering
Understand the product.
Gate drivers are electronic circuits that apply correct power levels to metal-oxide field-effect transistors (MOSFETs) and insulated gate bipolar transistors (IGBTs). With power-MOSFETs, gate drivers can be implemented as transformers, discrete transistors, or dedicated integrated circuits (IC).
They can also be integrated within controller ICs. Partitioning the gate-drive function of controllers that use pulse width modulation (PWM) improves controller stability by eliminating the high peak currents and heat dissipation needed to drive power-MOSFETs at very high frequencies.
With IGBTs, gate drivers serve as isolation amplifiers and often provide short-circuit protection. Because of their insulated gates, IGBTs require a continuous gate circuit in order to sustain gate current.
