Description

The ADP3416J is a dual MOSFET driver that belongs to the product category of gate drivers. It is optimized for driving two N-channel MOSFETs, which are the two switches in a non-isolated synchronous buck power converter. One of the drivers can be bootstrapped and is designed to handle the high voltage slew rate associated with "floating" high side gate drivers. The ADP3416J includes overlapping drive protection (ODP) to prevent shoot-through current in the external MOSFETs. It is available in an 8-lead SOIC package and is specified over the commercial temperature range of 0°C to 70°C.

Specifications and features

• All-In-One Synchronous Buck Driver
• Bootstrapped High Side Drive
• One PWM Signal Generates Both Drives
• Anticross-Conduction Protection Circuitry
• Pulse-by-Pulse Disable Control

Application Scenarios

The ADP3416J is suitable for use in a wide range of applications, including mobile computing CPU core power converters, multiphase desktop CPU supplies, single-supply synchronous buck converters, and standard-to-synchronous converter adaptations.
