Gate driver ICs, or gate driver integrated circuits, are electronic components designed to control the switching behaviour of power semiconductor devices such as MOSFETs (metal-oxide-semiconductor field-effect transistors) and IGBTs (insulated gate bipolar transistors). The gate of these high-power devices requires precise control signals to ensure efficient switching operations, minimize power losses, and optimize performance in various power electronics applications.
Gate driver ICs typically include features such as built-in protection circuits, isolation features, and temperature monitoring to enhance the reliability and safety of power electronic systems. They are commonly used in applications such as motor drives, inverters, converters, power supplies, renewable energy systems, electric vehicles, and industrial automation. Overall, these are critical components in power electronics systems, facilitating the efficient and reliable operation of high-power semiconductor devices by providing the necessary drive signals and protection mechanisms.
The expansion of 5G technology in Canada is expected to impact the market significantly, particularly in telecommunications and network infrastructure. According to Statistics Canada, in 2022, 91.3% of Canadians had access to 5G networks, and 99.5% had access to LTE networks. Additionally, in 2023, 4099 spectrum licenses were auctioned in the 3800 MHz band for a total value of $2.16 billion or $0.26 per MHz per person ($/MHz-Pop). Therefore, the expansion of the telecommunication sector in the region is propelling the growth of the market.
