1EDF5673K, GaN gate driver

CoolGaN™ and similar GaN switches require a continuous gate current of a few mA in their "on" state.

Besides, due to low threshold voltage and extremely fast switching transients, a negative "off" voltage level may be needed.

The widely used RC-coupled gate driver fulfils these requirements, however

1EDF5673K Features

* Dedicated gate driver ICs for high-voltage GaN power switches (CoolGaN™, GIT technology based products)

* low driving impedance (on-resistance 0.85 Ω source, 0.35 Ω sink)

* resistor programmable gate current (typ. 10 mA) in steady “on” state

* programmable negative
