EiceDRIVER 2EDN Family: Next-generation Robust Dual-Channel Low-Side 4A/5A Gate Driver ICs for MOSFETs
![EiceDRIVER 2EDN Family](/sites/default/files/components/EiceDRIVER-2EDN-Family-Gate-Driver.jpg)
Infineon Technologies AG has released a newEiceDRIVER 2EDN product familythat complements the existing 2EDN driver ICs by providing higher system-level efficiencies, excellent power density, and consistent system robustness with fewer external components. This new family is suitable for applications such as servers, telecom, DC-DC converters, industrial SMPS, EV charging stations, motor control, low-speed light electric vehicles, power tools, LED lighting, and solar energy systems.
The new EiceDRIVER 2EDN family comprises robust dual-channel low-side 4 A/5 A gate driver ICs and is targeting not only fast power MOSFETs but also wide bandgap (WBG) switching devices. These gate drivers enable engineers to meet their design requirements in many different package sizes, ensure safe turn-off before under-voltage lock-out (UVLO), and achieve faster UVLO reaction for robust operation and noise immunity.
Features
The highly efficient SMPS enabled by 5ns short slew rates and 10ns propagation delay precision suitable for fast MOSFET and GaN switching
Numerous deployment options due to two 5A channels are possible
1ns channel-to-channel accuracy enables the use of two channels in parallel
The 2EDN family comes with industry-standard packages and pinout ease system design upgrades
