Dual 2A High-Speed, Low-Side Gate Drivers

General Description

The FAN3216 and FAN3217 dual 2A gate drivers are designed to drive N-channel enhancement-mode MOSFETs in low-side switching applications by providing high peak current pulses during the short switching intervals. They are both available with TTL input thresholds. Internal circuitry provides an under-voltage lockout function by holding the output LOW until the supply voltage is within the operating range. In addition, the drivers feature matched internal propagation delays between A and B channels for applications requiring dual gate drives with critical timing, such as synchronous rectifiers. This also enables connecting two drivers in parallel to effectively double the current capability driving a single MOSFET. The FAN3216/17 drivers incorporate MillerDriveH 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 switching loss, while providing rail-to-rail voltage swing and reverse current capability. The FAN3216 offers two inverting drivers and the FAN3217 offers two non-inverting drivers. Both are offered in a standard 8-pin SOIC package.
