DESCRIPTION
The LT
廬
1336 is a cost effective half-bridge N-channel
power MOSFET driver. The floating driver can drive the
topside N-channel power MOSFETs operating off a high
voltage (HV) rail of up to 60V (absolute maximum). In
PWM operation an on-chip switching regulator maintains
charge in the bootstrap capacitor even when approaching
and operating at 100% duty cycle.
The internal logic prevents the inputs from turning on the
power MOSFETs in a half-bridge at the same time. Its
unique adaptive protection against shoot-through cur-
rents eliminates all matching requirements for the two
MOSFETs. This greatly eases the design of high efficiency
motor control and switching regulator systems.
During low supply or start-up conditions, the undervoltage
lockout actively pulls the driver outputs low to prevent the
power MOSFETs from being partially turned on. The 0.5V
hysteresis allows reliable operation even with slowly vary-
ing supplies.
