A gate driver integrated circuit (IC) is a semiconductor component that provides the necessary voltage and current to control the gate of power transistors, ensuring efficient and precise switching in electronic systems. These ICs are used to enhance the performance and reliability of power management by enabling effective control of high-power transistors.

The primary types of gate driver integrated circuits (ICs) are metal-oxide-semiconductor field-effect transistors (MOSFETs) and insulated-gate bipolar transistors (IGBTs). A MOSFET is a type of transistor used for amplifying or switching electronic signals, known for its high efficiency and low power consumption. It functions by varying the electrical conductivity of a channel between the source and drain terminals, controlled by a voltage applied to the gate terminal. The semiconductor materials used in these ICs include silicon (Si), silicon carbide (SiC), and gallium nitride (GaN). These ICs can be attached through various methods, such as in-chip and discrete, and utilize different isolation techniques, including magnetic isolation, capacitive isolation, and optical isolation. They are applied in residential, industrial, and commercial settings.
