Product details
Overview
IR25600STRPBF from Infineon Technologies (formerly International Rectifier) is a dual low-side gate driver IC for power MOSFETs and IGBTs, featuring matched 85 ns / 65 ns turn-on/turn-off propagation delays, ±1.5 A peak output current per channel, and 6–20 V gate drive supply range. It operates in industrial motor drives and half-bridge inverters where precise timing synchronization between two low-side switches is required.
For engineers reviewing the IR25600STRPBF datasheet, IR25600STRPBF pinout, IR25600STRPBF application, or IR25600STRPBF equivalent, key selection criteria include propagation delay matching, high-current sink/source capability, CMOS/LSTTL-compatible inputs, latch-immune logic, and SOIC-8 thermal performance under continuous switching loads.
Technical Context
The IR25600STRPBF integrates two independent low-side drivers with fully matched internal signal paths to ensure ≤5 ns inter-channel propagation delay skew. Its proprietary latch-immune CMOS process eliminates false triggering under fast dv/dt transients common in high-frequency bridge circuits.
Each channel delivers 1.5 A peak source/sink current into capacitive gate loads, with rise/fall times of 15 ns/10 ns (typ.) at 15 V supply and 1 nF load. Input thresholds are fixed at VIH ≥ 2.7 V and VIL ≤ 0.8 V, enabling direct interfacing with microcontroller GPIOs without level-shifting.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| IO+/IO− | ±1.5 A peak pulsed output current per channel - sufficient to drive 1000 pF gate capacitance with <35 ns rise time |
| VS Range | 6–20 V - supports standard 12 V and 15 V gate drive rails without external regulators |
| ton/toff | 85 ns / 65 ns (typ.) - enables >5 MHz effective switching frequency with tight dead-time control |
| Input Logic | CMOS Schmitt-triggered - provides noise immunity and clean edge regeneration for noisy PCB environments |
| RthJA | 200 °C/W (SOIC-8) - limits junction temperature rise to ≤50 °C at 0.625 W dissipation in still air |
| VOH/VOL | ≤1.2 V / ≤0.1 V at IO = 0 A - ensures robust logic-level margin for downstream gate threshold detection |
Pinout & Package
IR25600STRPBF is housed in an 8-lead SOIC (SO8N) package with exposed pad not electrically connected. Pin 1 is marked by a beveled corner; pins are numbered counterclockwise.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1 (INA) | Channel A input | In-phase logic control for OUTA; CMOS/LSTTL compatible, Schmitt-triggered |
| 2 (INB) | Channel B input | In-phase logic control for OUTB; independent but matched delay path vs. INA |
| 3 (VS) | Gate drive supply | Primary power rail for both output stages; decoupling capacitor must be placed adjacent to this pin |
| 4 (GND) | Power ground | Common return for VS, inputs, and outputs; requires low-inductance connection to PCB ground plane |
| 5 (OUTA) | Channel A output | Low-side gate driver output; capable of sourcing/sinking 1.5 A peak into MOSFET gate |
| 6 (OUTB) | Channel B output | Low-side gate driver output; matched ton/toff to OUTA within 5 ns |
| 7, 8 (NC) | No connect | Internally unconnected; must remain floating or tied to GND per layout best practice |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Latch-immune CMOS process | Prevents unintended output state changes during high dv/dt events in inverter leg commutation |
| Matched propagation delay | ≤5 ns inter-channel skew ensures synchronous turn-on of parallel low-side switches |
| High pulse current buffer | 1.5 A peak source/sink minimizes gate charging time and reduces conduction losses in fast-switching designs |
| CMOS Schmitt-trigger inputs | 400 mV hysteresis rejects board-level noise and prevents metastability at logic thresholds |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar dual low-side gate driver applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| IRS2004STRPBF | Higher 2.5 A peak output, integrated bootstrap diode, no NC pins | Designed for half-bridge high/low-side use; lacks dual independent low-side optimization | Select when bootstrapped high-side drive is needed alongside low-side; not drop-in for pure dual low-side layouts |
| UCC27524ADRMR | 2 A peak, 17 ns rise time, split output pins (source/sink), no propagation matching spec | Optimized for ultra-fast GaN FET drive; no guaranteed inter-channel delay match | Choose for GaN or SiC gate drive where speed > matching; avoid where skew-critical synchronous switching is required |
Compared with IRS2004STRPBF and UCC27524ADRMR, the IR25600STRPBF uniquely guarantees ≤5 ns inter-channel propagation skew and is optimized for cost-sensitive, noise-immune dual low-side control in industrial inverters-without added complexity of high-side support or excessive speed beyond silicon MOSFET needs.

FAQ
What is the maximum allowable supply voltage for IR25600STRPBF?
The absolute maximum VS rating is 25 V, but the recommended operating range is 6–20 V. Operation above 20 V risks exceeding safe junction temperature under load and violates the specified dynamic characteristics. Sustained use at 25 V may cause accelerated parametric drift or premature failure.
Can IR25600STRPBF drive both N-channel MOSFETs and IGBTs?
Yes - it is explicitly qualified for both power MOSFETs and IGBTs. Its ±1.5 A peak output current and 6–20 V supply range align with typical gate charge requirements of discrete 600 V IGBTs and 100 V MOSFETs used in motor drives and inverters.
Are pins 7 and 8 internally connected or should they be grounded?
Pins 7 and 8 are No Connect (NC) terminals with no internal connection. They must remain unconnected or optionally tied to GND for mechanical stability - neither configuration affects electrical performance, but grounding improves thermal coupling in high-power layouts.
Does IR25600STRPBF include built-in undervoltage lockout (UVLO)?
No - the device has no UVLO circuitry. It begins operating as soon as VS exceeds ~4.5 V (due to internal logic threshold), but reliable operation is only guaranteed within the recommended 6–20 V range. External UVLO monitoring is required for system-level brownout protection.
