Isolated gate drive with 4500 Vrms barrier
The 1ED020I12BTXUMA1 is a single-channel isolated gate driver from the Infineon EiceDriver™ family, using magnetic coupling technology to deliver 4500 Vrms of galvanic isolation across the barrier. This isolation rating covers the reinforced insulation requirements for IGBT and SiC MOSFET gate drive in motor drives, UPS systems, and industrial power supplies where the control side must stay referenced to a different ground potential than the power stage. Peak output current is rated 2 A source and 2 A sink, which drives the gate charge of a medium-power IGBT or SiC MOSFET through the Miller plateau without excessive switching loss. The 30 ns typical rise time and 20 ns typical fall time keep the switching edges clean enough for hard-switching topologies running at tens of kilohertz.
Temperature range and package fit
The 150°C upper limit gives headroom above the typical 125°C ceiling of many competing gate drivers — useful when the driver sits close to the power module on a shared heatsink. Housed in a 16-SOIC wide-body package (7.50 mm body width, PG-DSO-16-15 supplier designation), the footprint matches the standard SOIC-16W land pattern. The wide-body creepage distance supports the 4500 Vrms isolation rating across the package surface.
