Gate Drivers ICs

TC4422CPA Description

The TC4422CPA from Microchip Technology is a single-channel, low-side gate driver IC designed for high-performance switching applications. Housed in an 8-pin DIP (Through Hole) package, it offers robust 9A peak output current (source/sink) capability, enabling efficient driving of MOSFETs, IGBTs, and other power switches. With a wide supply voltage range (4.5V to 18V) and fast rise/fall times (60ns typical), it ensures minimal switching losses and enhanced system efficiency. The device operates reliably across a junction temperature range of 0°C to 150°C, making it suitable for demanding industrial environments.
