GD3160 - NXP

GD3160 Advanced IGBT/SiC gate driver

The GD3160 is an advanced, single-channel gate driver for IGBTs and SiC power devices. Integrated Galvanic isolation and low on-resistance drive transistors provide high charging and discharging current, low dynamic saturation voltage and rail-to-rail gate voltage control. Current and temperature sense minimizes IGBT/SiC stress during faults. Accurate and co.
