A gate driver IC is a power amplifier that accepts a low-power input from a controller IC and generates the necessary high-current gate drive for power devices. It enhances the performance of external power transistor gates that are used to supply current to an electric motor. It serves as a link between the logic level control inputs and the power metal-oxide-semiconductor field-effect transistors (MOSFETs). It is robust and flexible for offering an intelligent solution to drive the power semiconductor efficiently and ensuring minimal internal resistance to the transistor. Apart from this, it provides several advantages like reducing switching losses in the load transistor, decreasing its switching time, and driving the transistor into the conductive and non-conductive states.
Gate Driver IC Market Trends:
The growing traction of smart homes among individuals across the globe represents one of the key factors driving the market. Moreover, there is a rise in the demand for high voltage devices in the residential and commercial sectors. This, along with the increasing electrification of automobiles to replace gasoline vehicles with an electric powertrain, is propelling the growth of the market. In addition, there is a rise in the utilization of transistors in different renewable energy systems for amplifying, controlling, and generating electrical signals. This, coupled with the growing initiatives by governments of several countries to use renewable energy sources such as tidal, solar, and wind power, is positively influencing the market. Besides this, the increasing implementation of smart grids for effective power management is offering lucrative growth opportunities to industry investors. Additionally, key market players are extensively investing in research and development (R&D) activities to introduce a slimmer version of gate driver IC and decrease the size of consumer goods, which is bolstering the growth of the market.
