Understand the difference.
Compare the meaning, drawing context and source references of two entries. A similar graphic or shared abbreviation does not establish equivalence.
ISO-GD
SymbolsIsolated gate driver
Transfers a switching command across an isolation barrier and drives a power-transistor gate circuit.
- Drawing use
- Schematic
- Application
- Electronic components
- Reference family
- Manufacturer
A distinction that matters
A gate driver adds drive capability and device-specific supervision; it is not merely a general-purpose digital isolator.
IGBT
SymbolsInsulated-gate bipolar transistor
A power transistor combining insulated-gate control with a bipolar collector-emitter conduction structure.
- Drawing use
- Schematic
- Application
- Electronic components
- Reference family
- Manufacturer
A distinction that matters
An IGBT is not a MOSFET with renamed pins; reverse conduction and antiparallel-diode arrangements depend on the selected device.
