Gate Driver Procurement Notes

Verify the specific suffix 'H0' indicates the required connector pin length configuration for your PCB assembly, as this variant differs from other pin-length options like G1 or F1. Confirm that the uncoated version meets your environmental requirements, noting that coated alternatives exist for harsh conditions. Ensure compatibility with the SCALE-2+ ecosystem when designing the surrounding circuitry.

Gate Driver Selection Notes

Select this component when driving high-power IGBT modules up to 1700 V requiring 35 A peak current. It is suitable for designs prioritizing compactness and reliability through high integration. Consider the dedicated MOSFET mode if operating at switching frequencies up to 100 kHz with variable gate voltages. Evaluate the physical dimensions of 57.2 x 51.6 mm against available insertion space.
