The MCP1406 is a 6A high-speed MOSFET driver designed to charge and discharge capacitive loads up to 2500pF in under 20ns with matched rise and fall times of 20ns (typical) and a propagation delay of 40ns (typical). It operates from a 4.5V to 18V supply and features a CMOS push-pull output capable of sourcing 6A peak current. The device is available in 8-pin SOIC, PDIP, and 6x5mm DFN packages, with an operating temperature range of -40°C to +125°C. It is latch-up protected, withstands up to 1.5A reverse current, and is ESD protected to 2.0kV (HBM) and 400V (MM). The input is TTL/CMOS compatible with a negative swing tolerance up to 5V and is pin-compatible with TC4420/TC4429 devices.
The MCP1406/07 devices are a family of buffers/MOSFET drivers that feature a single-output with 6A peak drive current capability, low shoot-through current, matched rise/fall times and propagation delay times. These devices are pin-compatible and are improved versions of the TC4420/TC4429 MOSFET drivers.
The MCP1406/07 MOSFET drivers can easily charge and discharge 2500 pF gate capacitance in under 20 ns, provide low enough impedances (in both the ON and OFF states) to ensure that intended state of the MOSFETs will not be affected, even by large transients. The input to the MCP1406/07 may be driven directly from either TTL or CMOS (3V to 18V).
These devices are highly latch-up resistant under any conditions that fall within their power and voltage ratings. They are not subject to damage when up to 5V of noise spiking (of either polarity) occurs on the ground pin. All terminals are fully protected against electrostatic discharge (ESD), up to 2.0 kV (HBM) and 400V (MM).
The MCP1406/07 single-output 6A MOSFET driver family is offered in both surface-mount and pin-through-hole packages with a -40°C to +125°C temperature rating, making it useful in any wide temperature range application.
