The new devices prevent latch-up and eliminate shoot-through, so helping to improve circuit reliability and improve EMI performance.

Zetex Semiconductors has a new series of bipolar gate drivers for switching MOSFETs and IGBTs in power supplies and motor drives Capable of sinking currents up to 9A, the low cost ZXGD3000 series enables faster charging and discharging of gate capacitances than is possible with gate driver ICs, resulting in more rapid switching times and greater circuit efficiency
