The Wolfspeed MOSFET gate driver is designed to drive Cree Wolfspeed 1200V and 1700V SiC MOSFET power modules. Each of the two gate drive channels is protected by a desaturation circuit. In the event of a short circuit, the voltage across the MOSFET (VDS) rises until it hits a threshold which causes the desaturation circuit to drive both the gate drive channels to their off state. The dual output PCB module incorporates features such as protection against over/under-voltage, overcurrent and short-circuits and over-temperature. Its direct mount low inductance design and low jitter characteristics enable operation at switching frequencies of up to 125kHz.
