Balance the switching performance of your motor control power stage

Finding the optimal balance between switching losses and EMI performance is essential for driving the gate of the power switch.

Our flexible configuration capabilities will help you achieve this balance, and our low-latency and deterministic switch performance will ensure the optimization for minimal torque ripple of the motor control loop.

The result is a significantly improved steering and braking experience, with reduced vibration and increased smoothness.
