Infineon Technologies AG Gate Drivers IR3598MTR1PBF

The IR3598MTR1PBF is a dual MOSFET driver designed for high-efficiency synchronous buck converters, optimized for use with digital PWM controllers. It operates in a compact 16-pin QFN package, allowing for significant space savings in high phase count voltage regulators. The driver supports multimode operation, enabling configuration as either dual independent drivers or as an interleaved doubler driver, effectively doubling the maximum phase count from the controller. This driver features a variable gate drive voltage range from 4V to 13V, ensuring optimized system efficiency. It is capable of driving capacitive loads of 3nF in less than 12ns and supports high output switching frequencies exceeding 1MHz. The IR3598 includes integrated bootstrap diodes, low side driver specifications of 0.85,Ѷ source and 0.38,Ѷ sink, and high side driver specifications of 1.1,Ѷ source and 0.60,Ѷ sink. Propagation delays are less than 20ns, and the device incorporates non-overlap and under voltage protection for enhanced reliability. Applications include desktop CPU and GPU solutions, performance overclocking VR solutions, and systems optimized for sleep states using +5V standby. The IR3598 is RoHS compliant and designed to maintain drive strength across its voltage range, making it suitable for various advanced computing applications.
