IX4351NEAU (Data Sheet Rev 1)

The IX4351NEAU is an automotive grade, AEC-Q100 qualified gate driver, designed specifically to drive SiC MOSFETs and high power IGBTs. Separate 9A source and sink outputs allow for tailored turn-on and turn-off timing while minimizing switching losses. An internal negative charge regulator provides a selectable negative gate drive bias for improved dV/dt immunity and faster turn-off.

Desaturation detection circuitry senses an over current condition of the SiC MOSFET and initiates a soft turn off, thus preventing a potentially damaging dV/dt event. The non-inverting logic input, IN, is TTL and CMOS compatible; internal level shifters provide the necessary bias to accommodate negative gate drive bias voltages. Additional protection features include UVLO detection and thermal shutdown. An open drain FAULT output signals a fault condition to the microcontroller.

IX4340NE (Data Sheet Rev 1)

The IX4340NE is an automotive grade, AEC-Q100 qualified dual, high current, low side gate driver. Each of the two outputs is capable of sourcing and sinking 5A of peak current, and has a maximum voltage rating of 20V. The two outputs can be paralleled for higher current applications. Fast propagation delay times (16ns typical) and fast rise and fall times (7ns) make the IX4340NE well suited for high frequency applications.

The inputs are TTL and CMOS logic compatible, and there is an independent Enable function for each output. Under voltage lockout circuitry (UVLO) prevents the high side source driver from conducting until there is sufficient supply voltage. The outputs are held low if the logic inputs are floating.

IXD_604SI & SIA (Data Sheet Rev 4)

The IXDD604SI & SIA / IXDF604SI & SIA / IXDI604SI & SIA / IXDN604SI & SIA dual high-speed gate drivers are especially well suited for driving the latest IXYS MOSFETs and IGBTs. Each of the two outputs can source and sink 4A of peak current while producing voltage rise and fall times of less than 10ns. The input of each driver is virtually immune to latch up, and proprietary circuitry eliminates cross conduction and current “shoot-through.” Low propagation delay and fast, matched rise and fall times make these devices ideal for high-frequency and high-power applications.
