A range of dedicated Gate Driver ICs from Texas Instruments suitable for both MOSFET and IGBT applications. The devices are capable of providing suitable high current outputs compatible with the drive requirements of MOSFET and IGBT power devices and are available in a variety of configurations and package types.

The Texas Instruments UCC27424 family of high-speed dual MOSFET drivers can deliver large peak currents into capacitive loads. Three standard logic options are offered – dual-inverting, dual-noninverting, and one-inverting and one-noninverting driver. The thermally enhanced 8-pin Power PAD™ MSOP package (DGN) drastically lowers the thermal resistance to improve long-term reliability. It is also offered in the standard SOIC-8 (D) or PDIP-8 (P) packages.
