Half-bridge driver for N-channel MOSFETs — what it is and where it fits
The Texas Instruments LM5109AMA/NOPB is a half-bridge gate driver IC for two N-channel MOSFETs. It delivers 1A peak source and 1A peak sink current, with independent non-inverting inputs.
1 A peak drive — what it means for your MOSFET selection
The 1 A peak source and sink current sets the gate-drive strength. The 15 ns rise and fall times keep switching losses manageable.
Package and mounting — 8-SOIC, surface-mount only
The LM5109AMA/NOPB comes in an 8-SOIC package, surface-mount. The Tube shipping medium means it arrives in a stick.
Lifecycle and sourcing — active, no LTB risk
The LM5109AMA/NOPB is listed as Active and ROHS3 compliant. No end-of-life notice, no last-time-buy window. That means you can qualify it into a new BOM without worrying about a forced redesign mid-production.
