IX2204

INTEGRATED CIRCUITS DIVISION Features High Output Current: 2A Source/4A Sink Wide Operating Voltage Range: -10V to +26V Negative Gate Drive Capability Desaturation Detection Circuit Separate Source and Sink Outputs Programmable Blanking and Output Tristate TTL Compatible Inputs -40°C to +125°C Extended Operating Temperature Range Under-Voltage Lockout Circuitry Fault Status Output Applications Efficient IGBT Switching Motor Controls Switch Mode Power Supplies IX2204 Functional Block Diagram IX2204 Dual Low Side IGBT Gate Driver 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.
