IXDI514PI Low-Side Gate Driver IC - Equivalent & Substitute Parts

Part Overview

The IXDI514PI is a low-side gate driver IC manufactured by IXYS, designed for driving IGBT, N-Channel, and P-Channel MOSFET devices. This inverting gate driver operates across a supply voltage range of 4.5V to 30V and delivers peak output currents of 14A for both source and sink configurations. The device is packaged in an 8-DIP through-hole format with a 0.300" (7.62mm) pitch.

The IXDI514PI is classified as obsolete. Identifying equivalent substitute parts is necessary to maintain design continuity, ensure component availability, and support ongoing production requirements for applications utilizing this gate driver topology.

Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution of the IXDI514PI is determined by strict equivalence across the following critical parameters:

• Driven Configuration: Must be Low-Side
• Channel Type: Must be Single
• Number of Drivers: Must be 1
• Gate Type: Must support IGBT, N-Channel, and P-Channel MOSFET
• Input Type: Must be Inverting
• Package / Case: Must be 8-DIP (0.300", 7.62mm) through-hole
• Peak Output Current: Must maintain 14A source and sink capability
• Operating Temperature Range: Must support -55°C ~ 150°C (TJ)

The IXDI614PI meets all substitution criteria. This part maintains functional equivalence in driven configuration, channel topology, driver count, gate type support, input inversion logic, and physical packaging. Both devices are manufactured by IXYS and share the same 8-DIP through-hole footprint, enabling direct board-level replacement.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

The IXDI614PI is the direct substitute for the obsolete IXDI514PI. Both devices share identical functional specifications for driven configuration, channel topology, gate type support, and output current capability. The IXDI614PI offers an extended supply voltage range (4.5V ~ 35V versus 4.5V ~ 30V) and improved logic voltage thresholds (0.8V, 3V versus 1V, 2.5V), providing enhanced operational margin in applications with variable supply conditions.

The IXDI614PI maintains active product status with ROHS3 compliance certification, ensuring long-term availability and regulatory alignment. Both devices carry identical REACH and ECCN classifications, confirming equivalent export and environmental compliance profiles. The identical 8-DIP through-hole package enables direct board-level substitution without layout modification.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can the IXDI614PI replace the IXDI514PI in existing designs?

A: Yes. Both devices are single-channel, low-side gate drivers with inverting input logic, identical peak output current ratings (14A source/sink), and matching 8-DIP through-hole packaging. The IXDI614PI is a direct functional equivalent suitable for board-level replacement.

Q: What are the key differences between these two parts?

A: The IXDI614PI extends the supply voltage operating range to 35V (compared to 30V for the IXDI514PI) and provides wider logic voltage thresholds (0.8V to 3V versus 1V to 2.5V). The IXDI614PI also achieves a faster fall time of 18ns compared to 22ns. The IXDI514PI is obsolete; the IXDI614PI is active production.

Q: Are there any package or pinout differences?

A: No. Both devices use identical 8-DIP (0.300", 7.62mm) through-hole packaging. No PCB layout changes are required for substitution.

Q: What compliance certifications apply to the IXDI614PI?

A: The IXDI614PI is ROHS3 compliant and carries REACH Unaffected status. Both devices share identical ECCN (EAR99) and HTSUS (8542.39.0001) classifications.

Q: Is the IXDI614PI suitable for applications requiring the full 30V supply specification of the original IXDI514PI?

A: Yes. The IXDI614PI operates across 4.5V ~ 35V, which encompasses the original 4.5V ~ 30V specification. Applications designed for the IXDI514PI operate within the IXDI614PI's rated supply range.
