ahcheong_ray Posted August 22, 2005 Report Share Posted August 22, 2005 anyone know what is gate driver??what is the function??how does the circuit look like???help me to figure out>>>thank you~~ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
audioguru Posted August 22, 2005 Report Share Posted August 22, 2005 A gate driver is a circuit that has a fairly high pull-up and pull-down current output so that it can charge and discharge the high gate to source capacitance of Mosfets very quickly.Gate driver ICs are available but frequently a pair of complementary (an NPN transistor and a PNP transistor) emitter-followers are used. ;D Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ante Posted August 22, 2005 Report Share Posted August 22, 2005 Hi ray,Here is the datasheet for one that I have used: http://pdfserv.maxim-ic.com/en/ds/MAX626-TSC428.pdfYou can find out many thins from it! 8) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
