Gate driver ICs are used in the power electronics industry to drive the gates of power transistors such as MOSFETs or IGBTs. These ICs accept a low-power input from a controller and generate the necessary high current to drive the gate of power devices effectively. They control the switching of these transistors in applications like inverters, converters, motor drives, and power supplies. In this article, everything PE has listed some interesting Gate Driver ICs that are trending on the website in 2024.
