I will drive a load low side with IGBT. IGBT gate-emiter (Threshold) voltage will be 12 V. This voltage level is enough for my load current. I will use a gate driver. When ı search gate driver for low side Igbt always I saw current rating. What is it? I will use only voltage on gate of IGBT and any current will not be on gate of IGBT but I see sink or source current always.
Question two: I will use IR4426 (Infineon) for gate driver. Typical application was attached. According to this product, if I use microcontroller voltage level on input pin, I will to take 12 volt on output? Is that true?
Question three: Can I use this gate driver for this IGBT? IGBT will carry about 500 V and 5 A for 1-2 seconds.

Sorry for my basic questions. I'm a new hardware design engineer.
