General Description

The IXDR502, and IXDS502 each consist of a single 2A

CMOS high speed gate driver for driving the latest IXYS

MOSFETs & IGBTs. Each type can source and sink 2

Amps of peak current while producing voltage rise and

fall times of less than 15ns. The input of each driver is

TTL or CMOS compatible and is virtually immune to

latch up. Patented* design innovations eliminate cross

conduction and current "shoot-through". Improved

speed and drive capabilities are further enhanced by

very quick & matched rise and fall times.

The IXDR502 is configured as a single inverting gate

driver, and the IXDS502 is configured as a single non-

inverting gate driver.

The IXDR502, and IXDS502 are available in the 6-Lead

DFN (D1) package, which occupies less than 20% of

the board area of a typical 8-Pin SOIC package.
