General Description
The IXDD409/IXDI409/IXDN409 are high speed high current gate drivers specifically designed to drive the largest MOSFETs and IGBTs to their minimum switching time and maximum practical frequency limits. The IXDD409/IXDI409/IXDN409 can source and sink 9A of peak current while producing voltage rise and fall times of less than 30ns. The input of the drivers are compatible with TTL or CMOS and are fully immune to latch up over the entire operating range. Designed with small internal delays, cross conduction/current shoot-through is virtually eliminated in the IXDD409/IXDI409/IXDN409. Their features and wide safety margin in operating voltage and power make the drivers unmatched in performance and value.
