MIC5021BM-TR

Overview

The MIC5021BM-TR is a high-side gate driver IC manufactured by Microchip Technology, designed for driving N-channel MOSFETs and IGBTs. It operates within a supply voltage range of 12V to 36V and features non-inverting logic inputs with defined thresholds of 0.8V (VIL) and 2V (VIH). The device is housed in an 8-SOIC surface-mount package with a width of 3.90mm. It supports single-channel configuration and exhibits typical rise and fall times of 400ns each. The component is rated for operation between -40°C and +85°C ambient temperature.
