What the 1.5 A peak output means for your switching stage
The MAX4428ESA+ is a dual low-side gate driver rated for 1.5 A peak source and sink current, driving N-channel or P-channel MOSFETs with independent inverting and non-inverting inputs. A 20 ns typical rise and fall time into a MOSFET gate means the driver transitions the gate voltage through the Miller plateau quickly, keeping the switching loss in the FET low for switching frequencies up to a few hundred kilohertz.
