IXDN414SI

Overview

The IXDN414SI is a low-side gate driver IC manufactured by IXYS, housed in a 14-SOIC surface-mount package. It features non-inverting logic inputs with defined thresholds of 0.8V for VIL and 3.5V for VIH. The device delivers a peak output current of 14A for both sourcing and sinking operations. Typical rise and fall times are specified at 22ns and 20ns, respectively. It operates on a supply voltage range of 4.5V to 35V and supports an operating junction temperature from -55°C to 150°C. The component is designed for driving IGBTs and N-channel or P-channel MOSFETs.

Feature Summary

• High-speed operation optimized for minimizing switching times in power devices
• Robust 14A peak drive capability for efficient control of large MOSFETs and IGBTs
• Wide operating temperature range suitable for demanding industrial environments

Applications

• Industrial motor drives
• Power supply inverters
• High-frequency switching circuits

Procurement Notes

Verify the specific suffix 'SI' against the manufacturer's official documentation to confirm pinout compatibility and electrical specifications. Note that this part number may be listed as obsolete or discontinued in current catalogs; confirm availability status and lead times directly with authorized distributors before procurement planning.

Selection Notes

Select this component when a single-channel low-side driver with high current capacity is required. Ensure the application logic levels align with the specified 0.8V/3.5V input thresholds. Consider the 14-SOIC package constraints for thermal management and PCB layout requirements associated with high peak currents.

Part Context

This device belongs to the IXDN414 series of high-speed gate drivers. It shares functional similarities with the IXDI414 variant but differs in packaging and isolation characteristics. The series is engineered for applications requiring fast switching transitions and high drive strength for power semiconductors.

Replacement Considerations

Check for direct substitutes within the IXDN414 family, such as the IXDN414PI, ensuring package and pinout compatibility. Verify if alternative low-side drivers from other manufacturers meet the 14A current and speed requirements.
