Typical Applications
1EDN7126GXTMA1 is suitable for 6 applications: High-Density DC-DC Converters, Telecom 48 V Point-of-Load, Server and Data-Center Power Delivery, Motor-Drive Auxiliary Rails, Totem-Pole PFC Power Stages, LLC and Resonant Converters.
High-Density DC-DC Converters
The 1EDN7126GXTMA1 is well matched to 48 V to point-of-load buck and buck-boost converters using 100 V GaN HEMTs. The 1.5 A peak drive strength switches the gate in < 5 ns, which directly shrinks switching loss and lets designers push frequency above 1 MHz for smaller magnetics. Its 200 V CMR allows the high-side switch to be driven safely in a half-bridge GaN stage, where conventional low-side drivers would false-trigger on the large dV/dt seen at the source node.
Recommended
Telecom 48 V Point-of-Load
In telecom 48 V rails feeding downstream POL converters, the 1EDN7126GXTMA1 drives GaN HEMTs at the primary side while its small PG-VSON-10-4 footprint allows tight placement near the switch. The truly differential input stage rejects common-mode noise injected by parallel high-current traces on the backplane, avoiding false turn-on during load transients. Compared with bootstrap low-side drivers, the 1EDN7126GXTMA1's 200 V CMR margin handles the source swing of high-side GaN in half-bridge configurations used in isolated bus converters.
Recommended
Server and Data-Center Power Delivery
For server and data-center bricks such as 48 V to 12 V or 12 V to 1 V stages, the 1EDN7126GXTMA1 enables MHz-class switching that shrinks magnetic volume and improves transient response. The 1.5 A drive current keeps gate-drive loss well below 1 percent of total stage loss, and the differential input lets the controller sit on a separate ground domain for cleaner housekeeping signals. The PG-VSON-10-4 footprint also helps keep the high-current loop short, which is critical for EMI in dense multi-phase server designs.
Recommended
Motor-Drive Auxiliary Rails
Industrial motor drives use the 1EDN7126GXTMA1 to drive GaN-based auxiliary rails such as gate-driver supplies, housekeeping converters, and isolated sensor rails. The 200 V CMR tolerance allows reliable high-side drive even when the motor inverter creates large common-mode transients on the same PCB. With 1.5 A drive capability the part supports GaN switches up to 200 V rated, fitting low-voltage three-phase servo and BLDC drive subsystems.
Recommended
Totem-Pole PFC Power Stages
In bridgeless totem-pole PFC stages using 650 V GaN HEMTs, the 1EDN7126GXTMA1 drives the high-side arm where common-mode dV/dt can exceed 100 kV/us. The TDI architecture eliminates the need for a digital isolator on the high-side drive path, simplifying BOM and shrinking PCB area. With matched propagation delays below 10 ns, the 1EDN7126GXTMA1 minimizes dead-time and the resulting reverse-recovery penalty on the slow leg during AC line cycles.
Recommended
LLC and Resonant Converters
Resonant LLC converters for EV onboard chargers, LED drivers, and welding inverters benefit from the 1EDN7126GXTMA1's narrow timing skew and 1.5 A peak drive. The differential input preserves signal integrity in the noisy environment created by the resonant tank, where reflected dV/dt easily reaches 50 V/ns. The 10-pin PG-VSON-10-4 package simplifies the high-side / low-side layout symmetry, reducing parasitic mismatch that would otherwise degrade LLC efficiency.

Key Differentiators
- Truly differential input stage eliminates false triggering in high-side GaN drive (vs 1EDN7550BXTSA1)
- Higher peak drive current than the lower-cost 75x0 family members (vs 1EDN7511BXUSA1)
- Higher CMR margin than the 1EDN75xx family (vs 1EDN7550BXTSA1)
Design Notes
Place the 1EDN7126GXTMA1 within 5 mm of the GaN HEMT gate pad to minimize gate-loop inductance. Use a Kelvin-source connection directly back to the driver's GND pin, never to the power-stage ground plane, to avoid ground-bounce coupling that would otherwise corrupt the differential input.
Add a small series gate resistor (typically 1 to 5 ohm) between OUT and the GaN gate to damp ringing from the LC tank formed by package inductance and gate capacitance. Place a 100 nF X7R bypass capacitor directly at the VCC pin with the shortest possible return path to GND to keep the driver rail stiff during 1.5 A peak transients.
Do not operate the 1EDN7126GXTMA1 below the minimum supply-voltage threshold or with a noisy bootstrap diode - both lead to under-driven GaN switches and shoot-through. Verify the differential inputs are biased within the common-mode range of the GaN source swing; otherwise the TDI stage can saturate and the output becomes undefined.
When the controller and driver sit on different ground domains (common in isolated converters), keep the differential pair from IN+ to IN- tightly coupled and length-matched. Route them on an inner PCB layer over a continuous ground plane to reject the common-mode transients injected by adjacent high-current switching loops.
