The IR2153 is a high-voltage, high-speed power MOSFET driver IC designed for applications that require high efficiency and reliability. It features a high-side and low-side driver with a built-in dead-time generator, which helps prevent shoot-through currents in the power MOSFETs. The IC is capable of driving two power MOSFETs in a half-bridge configuration, making it suitable for a wide range of applications, including:
Schematic capture is impossible without manual symbol generation.
: The simulation runs but the switching MOSFETs are not correctly driven or the simulation fails with a missing MOSFET model error.
Custom simulation models can occasionally trigger errors during a live SPICE run. Here is how to fix them: Ir2153 Proteus Library Download
: Move the .LIB and .IDX files to the LIBRARY folder.
Poorly created third-party symbols. You can manually edit the symbol in Proteus: right-click -> "Decompose" -> rearrange pins -> "Make Device".
Press the key on your keyboard to open the "Pick Devices" window. into the keywords search bar. The IR2153 is a high-voltage, high-speed power MOSFET
The is a highly popular high-voltage, high-speed power MOSFET driver with an internal oscillator. Designed primarily for fluorescent lamp ballasts and Switch Mode Power Supplies (SMPS), it has become a staple component for electronics hobbyists and professionals alike. Combining a 600V half-bridge gate driver with a programmable oscillator, the IR2153 simplifies the design of resonant power supplies.
The IR2153 half-bridge driver can be added to Proteus for PCB design by downloading symbols and footprints from resources like SnapMagic . For simulations, PSpice models are typically imported, with component information and SPICE models available on the Infineon website . IR2153 - Gate driver ICs - Infineon Technologies
Some paid versions of Proteus include advanced power component libraries. Check with Labcenter if the IR2153 is part of their bundle. : The simulation runs but the switching MOSFETs

If Proteus was open during this process, close the software completely and relaunch it. This forces the application to re-index its database and recognize the newly added IR2153 model. Simulating the IR2153 in Proteus ISIS
Half-bridge switching causes rapid voltage spikes (
: While often providing purely schematic/PCB footprints rather than active simulation models, these are excellent if you only need to design the physical circuit board. File Extensions to Look For
