A gate driver is a type of power amplifier that accepts a low-power input from a controller IC and produces a high-current drive input for the gate of a high-power transistor such as an Insulated-Gate Bipolar Transistor (IGBT) or power MOSFET. Gate drivers are beneficial to MOSFET operation because the high-current drive provided to the MOSFET gate decreases the switching time between the gate ON/OFF stages, which leads to increased MOSFET power and thermal efficiency.

Our diverse array of gate drivers supports applications ranging from DC/DC power supplies to a host of motor applications while promoting high design flexibility, system efficiency and robust operation.
