SiLM27524NCA-DG

The SiLM27524N family of devices are dual-channel, high-speed, low-side gate drivers that can effectively drive MOSFET and IGBT power switches. Using a design that inherently minimizes shoot-through current, SiLM27524N can source and sink high peak current pulses into capacitive loads offering rail-to-rail drive capability and extremely small propagation delay, typically 18 ns. The SiLM27524N provides 4.5 A source, 5.5 A sink peak drive current capability at 12V VDD supply.

Applications

• Switching mode power supplies
• DC-to-DC converters
