Product details

Dual 4A low-side driver for N-channel MOSFETs

The non-inverting input type simplifies control logic — a high on the input turns the driver on. Supply range of 4V to 14V covers common 5V and 12V rails, and the junction temperature rating of -40°C to 150°C suits industrial motor drives, power supplies, and automotive under-hood environments. The 8-uMAX-EP / 8-uSOP-EP package with exposed pad helps thermal management in high-switching-frequency designs.

40ns rise / 25ns fall — switching speed and gate drive margin

The 40ns rise and 25ns fall times are typical. The 4A peak current charges and discharges the MOSFET gate capacitance quickly.

ROHS3 compliant.
