Description
The FA N3226-29 family of dual 2 A gate drivers is
designed to drive N-channel enhancement-mode
MOSFETs in low -side sw itching applications by
providing high peak current pulses during the short
sw itching intervals. The driver is available w ith either
TTL or CMOS input thresholds. Internal circuitry
provides an under-voltage lockout function by holding
the output low until the supply voltage is w ithin the
operating range. In addition, the drivers feature matched
internal propagation delays betw een A and B channels
for applications requiring dual gate drives w ith critical
timing, such as synchronous rectifiers. This enables
connecting tw o drivers in parallel to effectively double
the current capability driving a single MOSFET.
The FA N322X drivers incorporate MillerDrive™
architecture for the final output stage. This bipolar-
MOSFET combination provides high current during the
Miller plateau stage of the MOSFET turn-on / turn-off
process to minimize sw itching loss, w hile providing rail-
to-rail voltage sw ing and reverse current capability.
The FAN3226 offers two inverting drivers and the
FAN3227 offers tw o non-inverting drivers. Each device
has dual independent enable pins that default to ON if
not connected. In the FAN3228 and FAN3229, each
channel has dual inputs of opposite polarity, w hich
allows configuration as non-inverting or inverting w ith an
optional enable function using the second input. If one
or both inputs are left unconnected, internal resistors
bias the inputs such that the output is pulled low to hold
the pow er MOSFET off.
