These products are all designed and manufactured to the highest standards to maximise performance, safeguard equipment from damage and personnel from injury due to electrical faults, while reducing costs and minimizing downtime.
One of the many product areas where Littelfuse demonstrate market leadership is high speed Gate Driver ICs, they have products offering high peak output currents in various package versions including real power packages for driving MOSFET, SiC-MOSFET, and IGBT Power Devices.
High-Side and Low-Side & Half-Bridge Gate Driver ICs
High-Side and Low-Side & Half-Bridge drivers control two N-Channel MOSFETs or IGBTs in fast switching applications. The gate driver converts PWM input signals into gate signals compatible with MOSFETs or IGBTs, providing a robust and efficient power semiconductor control. An integrated bootstrap circuit generates a floating voltage that enables the high-side driver to operate up to 600VDC.

Both the High-Side and Low-Side & Half-Bridge Gate drivers accept a wide supply voltage range from 10V to 20V, as well as wide logic input voltage ranges 3.3V to 20V. The devices feature an array of built-in protection features including Under Voltage Lockout (UVLO), Shoot-Through Protection and outputs which are tolerant to negative transients ensuring the safe operation of the driver and the driven power semiconductors.
The devices are available in 8-Pin, 14-Pin and 16-Pin* SOIC industry standard packages and pin-outs, with peak drive currents (sink) from 600mA to 2.3A or 600mA to 4.5A* and extended operating temperature ranges from -40°C to +125°C throughout ensuring reliability in the harshest of environments.
* High-side and Low-side Gate drivers only.
3-Phase Half-Bridge Gate Driver ICs
Switching three pairs of N-Channel MOSFETs or IGBTs in 6-pack configurations is a challenge in fast switching applications. Moreover 3-Phase Half Bridge gate drivers convert PWM input signals into gate-signals compatible with MOSFETs or IGBTs, providing a robust and efficient power semiconductor control. Integrated bootstrap circuits generate floating voltages that enable enables the three high-side drivers to operate up to 600VDC.
Typical Application Circuit – 3-Phase Half-Bridge Gate Driver
The 3-Phase Half Bridge Gate drivers accept a wide supply voltage range from 10V to 20V, as well as wide logic input voltage ranges 3.3V to 20V. The devices feature several built-in protection features including Under Voltage Lockout (UVLO), Shoot-Through Protection, Cross-conduction prevention logic, Matched propagation delay times and outputs which are tolerant to negative transients ensuring the safe operation of the driver and the driven power semiconductors.
The devices are available in 20-Pin and 28-Pin SOIC industry standard packages and pin-outs, with peak drive currents (sink) from 350mA to 650mA and extended operating temperature ranges from -40°C to +125°C throughout ensuring reliability in the harshest of environments.
