IXDF402PI Low-Side Gate Driver IC Equivalent & Substitute Parts

Part Overview

The IXDF402PI is a low-side gate driver IC manufactured by IXYS, designed to drive IGBT and MOSFET gates in power management applications. This device features independent dual-channel configuration with inverting and non-inverting input types, operating across a 4.5V to 35V supply voltage range.

The IXDF402PI is classified as obsolete. Identifying suitable substitute parts is necessary to maintain design continuity and ensure component availability for new production runs, repairs, and system upgrades where this legacy device is no longer readily procurable.

Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution eligibility for the IXDF402PI is determined by the following critical parameters:

• Driven Configuration: Must be Low-Side
• Number of Drivers: Must be 2 independent channels
• Gate Type: Must support IGBT, N-Channel, and P-Channel MOSFET
• Voltage - Supply: Must operate within or encompass 4.5V ~ 35V range
• Logic Voltage (VIL, VIH): Must be compatible with 0.8V, 3V thresholds
• Input Type: Must support both Inverting and Non-Inverting configurations
• Package / Case: Must be 8-DIP (0.300", 7.62mm) for mechanical compatibility
• Mounting Type: Must be Through Hole

The IXDF602PI and IXDF604PI meet all substitution criteria. Both are active products from IXYS Integrated Circuits Division, maintaining identical supply voltage ranges, logic voltage specifications, package geometry, and dual-channel low-side configuration. Differences in peak output current and rise/fall time characteristics are secondary parameters that do not preclude substitution but may affect performance in specific applications.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

IXDF602PI is the direct functional equivalent of the IXDF402PI. Both devices share identical electrical specifications including 2A peak output current, 8ns rise/fall times, and -55°C to 150°C operating temperature range. The IXDF602PI is an active product with ROHS3 compliance, making it the preferred choice for new designs and production continuity. Inventory availability is confirmed at 1112 pieces.

IXDF604PI provides enhanced performance with 4A peak output current capability, suitable for applications requiring higher gate drive current. Operating temperature range is -40°C to 125°C (TA), which is narrower than the IXDF402PI specification. The IXDF604PI is also an active product with ROHS3 compliance and confirmed inventory of 1210 pieces. Selection of this device should be evaluated based on application thermal requirements and gate drive current demands.

Both substitute parts maintain identical package geometry, supply voltage range, logic voltage thresholds, and dual-channel low-side configuration, ensuring direct PCB compatibility and functional interchangeability within the specified parameter constraints.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can IXDF602PI directly replace IXDF402PI in existing designs?

A: Yes. The IXDF602PI maintains identical electrical specifications for supply voltage (4.5V ~ 35V), logic voltage thresholds (0.8V, 3V), peak output current (2A source/sink), and operating temperature range (-55°C ~ 150°C). Package geometry and pinout are identical (8-DIP, 0.300" pitch). No circuit modifications are required.

Q: What is the difference between IXDF602PI and IXDF604PI?

A: The primary difference is peak output current: IXDF602PI provides 2A source/sink current, while IXDF604PI provides 4A source/sink current. The IXDF604PI also has a narrower operating temperature range (-40°C ~ 125°C TA versus -55°C ~ 150°C TJ). Rise/fall times differ slightly (IXDF602PI: 7.5ns/6.5ns; IXDF604PI: 9ns/8ns). Selection depends on application gate drive current requirements and thermal operating conditions.

Q: Are both substitute parts available in the same packaging?

A: Yes. Both IXDF602PI and IXDF604PI are supplied in 8-DIP through-hole packages with 0.300" (7.62mm) pitch, identical to the IXDF402PI. The IXDF602PI is supplied in Tube packaging; IXDF604PI is also supplied in Tube packaging.

Q: Do the substitute parts meet current environmental compliance standards?

A: Yes. Both IXDF602PI and IXDF604PI are ROHS3 compliant and REACH unaffected, meeting current environmental regulations. The original IXDF402PI compliance status was not specified.

Q: Which substitute should I select for a new design?

A: For applications requiring 2A gate drive current, select IXDF602PI. For applications requiring 4A gate drive current, select IXDF604PI. Both are active products with confirmed inventory and full compliance certifications. Verify that the operating temperature range of the selected device encompasses your application requirements.
