Ill try to get them off tomorrow - get your magnifying glass ready.....

I am sure you can read a datasheet - but don't overlook that they appear to be a glorified complimentary emitter follower and despite their claims that they can buffer output from a controller to a FET gate, this may be misleading.

My understanding is that the gate drive voltage will always be the same as the signal input. If they are powered from 15V but the drive signal is 5V the output will only be ~5V. They can definitely buffer a 10-15V gate drive directly from an IRF2010 or similar though.Edited by wiseguy 2019-03-04
If at first you dont succeed, I suggest you avoid sky diving....
