The MAX22701E isolated gate driver from Maxim Integrated is in stock at distributor Mouser Electronics.
Compare isolated gate drivers and noise immunity
Isolated gate drivers are used to drive power semiconductors, such as IGBTs and power MOSFETS, in inverters, motor drives, UPS, and EV charger. The gate drivers are used to provide galvanic insulation between the control circuits and the high voltages. Watch the video to learn more about the basics of isolated gate drivers and noise immunity.
