Product details

What this driver brings to the half-bridge

The Texas Instruments UCC27516DRSR is a single-channel low-side gate driver for IGBT and N-Channel MOSFET gates.

4A peak drive — what it means for your switching cell

The 4 A peak source and sink current is the rating that decides whether this driver can turn on your chosen power switch within your dead-time budget.

Package and thermal reality

The 6-SON (3x3 mm) is a surface-mount package with a thermal pad underneath.

There is no NRND or EOL flag on this part, so it remains a current-design-in candidate for new builds. The base product number is UCC27516; density and package variants share the same driver core, so a move to a different package or channel count within the family keeps the same drive characteristics.

Frequently asked questions

What is the output current of UCC27516DRSR?

The peak output current is 4 A source and 4 A sink. That symmetric rating is the key spec for driving the gate capacitance of IGBTs and N-Channel MOSFETs.

Can UCC27516DRSR drive IGBT?

Yes, the gate type is specified for IGBT and N-Channel MOSFET. The 4 A peak current and fast 8 ns/7 ns rise/fall times are well suited for the gate charge of small to medium IGBTs used in motor drives and power converters.

Is UCC27516DRSR suitable for MOSFET gate driving?

Yes, it is specified for N-Channel MOSFETs. The 4 A peak drive and 4.5 V to 18 V supply range cover standard MOSFET gate drive requirements in low-side configurations.

How does UCC27516DRSR compare to the LM5106MM/NOPB?

The LM5106MM/NOPB is a half-bridge driver with two channels and 1.2 A peak current, versus the UCC27516DRSR's single-channel low-side driver with 4 A peak. The UCC27516DRSR also offers a wider junction temperature range (-40°C to 140°C vs -40°C to 125°C). The LM5106 is a better fit if you need a half-bridge driver with integrated dead-time; the UCC27516DRSR is the choice when you need higher peak current for a single low-side switch in a high-temperature environment.
