I just want to lower the need to put less semiconductors in the gate driver section so as to maintain lower semiconductor foot print and minimizing cost. And there is no need to worry about the driver being destroyed by Transient spikes.
Excellent document, I've just added it to my Mosfet drivers library. Thanks for posting!@Lestraveled
You are Perfectly Correct ,The reasons that you have stated are my current point of concern and I just dont wish to burn up my drives by using Semiconductor based Stuff.SO I opted Transformer based drive.
I have find some thing from Maxim App
you can get gate drive transformers integrated into gate drive module such as this:Hello Peoples,
I am working on a High Voltage MOSFET/IGBT gate driver that is to be used as a half bridge with independent control signal from a isolated source(M.C.U) . I need to drive high power IGBT 600v @ 100A .With a sampling frequency of 15khz to 25khz.
The main problem is the availability of off-the-shelf Isolated drivers and the huge cost involved to buy them.
Could some one through some light on a the Gate driver for our purpose.
Nice... half as much is always twice as good!How about u pay half that!

I think they should, it's just a matter of seeing how much instantaneous current (charge) require the mosfets to be usedWould those work with IGBT or mosfets that are larger than surface mount?
