Description

The IX2204 is a dual high current gate driver

specifically designed to drive the gates of high current

IGBTs. The IX2204 provides two high current outputs

capable of sourcing 2A and sinking 4A. The outputs

can be paralleled for IGBT gates that require higher

drive current. The outputs have a wide operating

voltage range, and are able to provide a negative gate

drive voltage to ensure the turn-off of high power

IGBTs. A desaturation detection circuit protects the

power IGBT during a short circuit. The IX2204 has a

programmable two-level turn-off feature that protects

the device against excessive voltages when the IGBT

is being turned off due to an over-current situation.

The IX2204 has under voltage lockout circuitry and a

fault status output, and is available in a 16-lead

thermally enhanced SOIC package.
