UC2950 4A mosfet driver, half bridge switch TO220 X4
4 Amp Half Bridge Gate Driver for power MOSFETs
Does one thing, and does it very well: Turn MOSFETS hard ON, to attain their lowest specified Rds(on). (good luck attaining it otherwise).
Turns them ON FAST, and turns them OFF FAST.
It will both source and sink current from MOSFET gates to provide fast switching.
Supply of 8 to 35V, 2.0 Amp continuous output current. 4A peak source/sink current into capacitive loads.
Designed to reduce both conduction losses (by fully enhancing the channel), and switching losses (by reducing rise/fall times to their specified minimum) in all MOSFETS.
Can be used to drive other loads: motors, transformers, horn speakers (very loud alarm), signal generators, anything that can handle square waves.
If you're driving MOSFETS any other way, you end up struggling with rise times and incomplete turn-on, and you're not achieving rated MOSFET performance.
