Power management integrated circuits (PMICs) are a vital component to many electronic devices around the world. Gate drivers are an important class of PMICs that enable reliable, efficient and safe driving of a variety of gate controlled devices. Specifically, the IRS44262STRPBF PMIC gate driver from Infineon is an integrated single-channel gate driver for driving N-channel MOSFETs and IGBTs in low voltage and high-end power electronics applications. This paper will explain the application field and working principle of the IRS44262STRPBF PMIC gate driver.

The IRS44262STRPBF gate driver is designed to drive N-channel MOSFETs and IGBTs in low voltage and high end power electronics applications. Specifically, its features make it suitable for energy storage and power conversion applications such as motor drives, uninterruptible power supplies (UPSs), solar inverters, and frequency drives. This PMIC gate driver can directly drive the gates of those devices with a maximum of 12V supply with an adjustable gate drive voltage from 9V to 12V and short-circuit protected current up to 16A. The adjustable gate drive current from 0.6A to 16A gives the user plenty of control and flexibility. Furthermore, the integrated slew rate control allows for smooth start-up and turn-off of the device. Finally, the device has over temperature protection and integrated diagnostic feedback to alert the user in the event of a fault condition.

The working principle of the IRS44262STRPBF PMIC gate driver is based on two ultra-low on-resistance NFETs operating in parallel. When the supplied logic signal (an enable signal) of the gate driver is high, these NFETs become active and draw current through the gate of the load device (MOSFET or IGBT). This current is proportional to the gate drive voltage of the device. During this process, the NFETs compensate for the on-resistance by using their own low source resistor. Thus, the device can have a low on-resistance to drive the load device and a higher current carrying capability than most other discrete gate drivers. Furthermore, because of the protective features integrated into the device, it is highly stable and robust in operation.

In conclusion, Infineon\'s IRS44262STRPBF PMIC gate driver is specifically designed for driving N-channel MOSFETs and IGBTs in low voltage and high-end power electronics applications. Its adjustable gate drive voltage from 9V to 12V and current up to 16A make it suitable for demanding applications such as motor drives, UPSs, solar inverters, and frequency drives. Additionally, the device has slew rate control to ensure smooth start-up and turn-off and over temperature, and short circuit protection for improved reliability and robustness. With its low on-resistance NFET structure, the device is capable of driving the gate of the load device with a higher current carrying capability than most other discrete gate drivers.
