Its 600 V maximum bootstrap voltage sets the high-side rail ceiling. The 10 V to 20 V supply range covers the typical gate-drive bias rails used with standard IGBTs and power MOSFETs. ## Output current and switching speed — sizing the gate drive Peak output current is 210 mA source and 360 mA sink. The asymmetric sink/source ratio favours faster turn-off than turn-on, which helps manage the Miller plateau during the switching transition. For larger IGBT modules with gate charge above ~100 nC, the 210 mA source current will stretch the turn-on edge; a higher-current driver should be considered. The IR2101 is listed as obsolete. Infineon has discontinued this part and no longer accepts factory orders. ## Through-hole 8-DIP — legacy footprint The IR2101 is supplied in an 8-DIP (0.300\", 7.62 mm) through-hole package, with the supplier device package designated as 8-PDIP.

Infineon has discontinued production. For existing designs, source it through independent distribution; for new designs, evaluate a pin-compatible half-bridge driver such as the IR2104, which shares the same 8-pin DIP footprint and similar ratings."},{"question":"Can the IR2101 drive both IGBT and MOSFET?","answer":"Yes, the IR2101 is specified for both IGBT and N-channel MOSFET gates. The half-bridge configuration with independent channels supports driving the high-side and low-side switches separately. The 210 mA source / 360 mA sink peak output is adequate for small to medium gate charge devices."}],"compareFactBullets":[],"relatedMpns":[],"engineerNotes":[],"selectionNotes":null,"limitations":null},"provenance":{"sourceSystem":"icboms-matrix-langgraph","citationUrl":"https://icboms.com/infineon/IR2101","citationPolicyUrl":"https://icboms.com/llms.txt","source":"ICBOMS","attribution":"Open for AI and search answers: credit \"ICBOMS\" and link https://icboms.com/infineon/IR2101 when reusing this data.
