SC420A
High Speed, Combi-Sense , Synchronous Power MOSFET Driver for Mobile Applications
POWER MANAGEMENT Description
The SC420A is a cost effective Dual MOSFET Driver, incorporating Semtech’s patented Combi-SenseTM technology, designed for switching High and Low side Power MOSFETs Step-down Switching
regulators. A 30ns max POWERin MANAGEMENT propagation delay from input transition to the gate of www.DataSheet4U.com the power FET’s guarantees operation at high switching frequencies. Internal overlap protection circuit prevents shoot-through from Vin to GND in the main and synchronous MOSFETs. reducing switching losses at high frequencies without causing thermal stress on the driver. The high voltage CMOS process allows operation up to 27 Volts, making the SC420A suitable for adaptor powered applications. Under-voltage-lockout and over-temperature shutdown features are included for proper and safe operation. The SC420A is offered in a space saving MLP-12 package.
