Microchip Technology, Inc. PMIC - Gate Drivers MIC4421ACM-TR

The MIC4421ACM-TR is an inverting MOSFET driver capable of delivering a peak output current of 9A, making it suitable for driving large MOSFETs with enhanced safe operating margins. It operates within a voltage range of 4.5V to 18V and features a minimum pulse width of 50ns. The driver can withstand negative input swings of up to 5V without damage and is designed to handle high capacitive loads of up to 47,000pF. This device is constructed using a Bipolar/CMOS/DMOS process, ensuring immunity to latch-up and low crossover current, which contributes to efficient operation and reduced power consumption. The typical delay time is 15ns, with rise and fall times of 20ns and 24ns, respectively. The MIC4421ACM-TR is suitable for various applications, including switch mode power supplies, motor controls, and pulse generators. It is available in multiple package options, including 8-Pin SOIC and PDIP, with temperature ranges varying from -55¬8C to +125¬8C for the X version, -40¬8C to +85¬8C for the Y version, and 0¬8C to +70¬8C for the Z version.
