Infineon Technologies 98-0065 High-Side Gate Driver IC Equivalent & Substitute Parts

Part Overview

The Infineon Technologies 98-0065 is a high-side gate driver IC designed for driving IGBT and N-Channel MOSFET devices in power management applications. This non-inverting gate driver operates with a supply voltage range of 10V to 20V and delivers peak output currents of 250mA (source) and 500mA (sink). The device is packaged in an 8-SOIC surface mount package with a maximum bootstrap voltage rating of 600V.

The 98-0065 carries an obsolete product status, making it necessary to identify active equivalent alternatives for new designs and ongoing production requirements. Locating suitable substitutes ensures design continuity and supply chain reliability.

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution of the 98-0065 is determined by strict equivalence across the following critical parameters:

• Driven Configuration: High-Side operation only
• Channel Type: Single channel
• Gate Type: IGBT and N-Channel MOSFET compatibility
• Voltage - Supply: 10V ~ 20V range
• Logic Voltage Thresholds: VIL = 6V, VIH = 9.5V
• Peak Output Current: Source 250mA, Sink 500mA
• Input Type: Non-Inverting logic
• Bootstrap Voltage Rating: 600V maximum
• Package: 8-SOIC form factor
• Mounting: Surface mount technology

The IR2117SPBF meets all electrical and mechanical specifications required for direct substitution. Both devices share the same base product number (IR2117) and are manufactured by Infineon Technologies, ensuring functional and pin-level compatibility.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

The IR2117SPBF is the direct equivalent substitute for the obsolete 98-0065. Both devices are manufactured by Infineon Technologies and share identical electrical specifications and package geometry.

The IR2117SPBF offers the advantage of active product status, ensuring ongoing availability and manufacturing support. Additionally, the IR2117SPBF achieves ROHS3 compliance, meeting current environmental and regulatory requirements for new product designs and manufacturing in regulated markets.

The MSL rating difference (1 versus 2) reflects standard moisture sensitivity classifications. The IR2117SPBF's MSL-2 rating requires standard moisture control during storage and handling, consistent with industry practices for surface mount components.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can the IR2117SPBF directly replace the 98-0065 in existing designs?

A: Yes. The IR2117SPBF is electrically and mechanically equivalent to the 98-0065. All electrical parameters, logic thresholds, output currents, timing characteristics, and package dimensions are identical. Pin-level compatibility is maintained.

Q: What is the primary reason to transition from the 98-0065 to the IR2117SPBF?

A: The 98-0065 is obsolete, while the IR2117SPBF maintains active product status. This ensures continued supply availability, manufacturing support, and compliance with current regulatory standards.

Q: Are there any compliance differences between these parts?

A: The IR2117SPBF is ROHS3 compliant, whereas the 98-0065 is RoHS non-compliant. For applications requiring environmental compliance certification, the IR2117SPBF is the appropriate selection.

Q: Does the MSL rating difference affect component handling?

A: The IR2117SPBF carries an MSL-2 rating requiring standard moisture control during storage and handling. This is consistent with typical surface mount component practices and does not impose additional constraints beyond industry-standard moisture management protocols.

Q: Are the 8-SOIC packages identical between both parts?

A: Yes. Both the 98-0065 and IR2117SPBF use the same 8-SOIC package with 0.154" (3.90mm) width. PCB footprints and assembly processes are identical.

Q: What applications are these gate drivers suitable for?

A: These high-side gate drivers are designed for IGBT and N-Channel MOSFET switching applications in power management circuits, including motor control, power conversion, and industrial switching applications operating within the 10V to 20V supply voltage range.
