GD3162 - NXP

GD3162 Advanced IGBT/SiC gate driver

The GD3162 is an advanced, galvanically isolated, single-channel gate driver designed to drive the latest SiC and IGBT modules for xEV traction inverters. The device does this while enabling space savings and performance improvements through advanced gatedrive functionality. The GD3162 offers integrated galvanic isolation, a programmable interface via SPI, a.
