H Bridge Gate Driver Ic. The mosfet driver ic controls switch timing to ensure that only one transistor conducts at a time preventing potentially. This piece of hardware is called a gate driver.
The 33883 is an h bridge gate driver also known as a full bridge pre driver ic with integrated charge pump and independent high and low side gate driver channels. The spdt switch is used to select the leg of the h bridge which controls the direction. With excellent ruggedness and noise immunity these gate drivers are perfect for motor drives home appliance smps battery powered applications and high power lighting.
Every switch needs a driver the right driver makes a difference.
Driving mosfets after selecting acceptable mosfets for the designed h bridge the next critical step is to select a proper integrated circuit ic that will act as a buffer between the signal generator for high side low side control and the actual gates of the mosfets. This piece of hardware is called a gate driver. An advanced level shift circuit allows high side gate driver operation up to v s 9 8 v typical for v bs 15 v. The gate driver channels are independently controlled by four separate input pins thus allowing the device to be optionally configured as two independent high side gate drivers.
