Gate drivers are electronic circuits that apply correct power levels to metal-oxide field-effect transistors (MOSFETs) and insulated gate bipolar transistors (IGBTs). With power-MOSFETs, gate drivers can be implemented as transformers, discrete transistors, or dedicated integrated circuits (IC).

They can also be integrated within controller ICs. Partitioning the gate-drive function of controllers that use pulse width modulation (PWM) improves controller stability by eliminating the high peak currents and heat dissipation needed to drive power-MOSFETs at very high frequencies.

With IGBTs, gate drivers serve as isolation amplifiers and often provide short-circuit protection. Because of their insulated gates, IGBTs require a continuous gate circuit in order to sustain gate current.
Major manufacturers of door drivers include STMicroelectronics, Infineon, Fairchild Semiconductor, Rohm Semiconductor, and ON Semiconductor. The top five accounted for about 50% of the market.
North America is the main market, accounting for about 60%, followed by Europe at about 20%.
