The ADP3413 is a dual, high voltage MOSFET driver optimized for driving two N-channel MOSFETs, the two switches in a non-isolated synchronous buck power converter. Each of the drivers is capable of driving a 3000 pF load with a 25 ns propagation delay and a 20 ns transition time.
Key Features and Benefits:
- High Voltage Drive Capability: The ADP3413 is capable of operating with a supply voltage up to 12 V, making it suitable for a wide range of applications.
- High Peak Current Drive: With peak current drive capability of ±2 A, the ADP3413 can easily drive large capacitive loads, ensuring rapid switching of MOSFETs for efficient operation.
- Adaptive Shoot-Through Protection: Integrated shoot-through protection prevents both MOSFETs from conducting simultaneously, thereby protecting the device and improving reliability.
- Output Disable Function: The ADP3413 features an output disable function that allows the user to turn off both drivers simultaneously, providing an additional layer of control and safety.
- Independent Inputs: Separate input pins for the top and bottom drivers offer independent control, allowing for greater flexibility in complex power management schemes.
- Fast Propagation Delays: The device boasts fast propagation delays of 25 ns, ensuring quick response times for critical applications.
- Under-Voltage Lockout: The under-voltage lockout (UVLO) feature ensures that the device operates only when the supply voltage is sufficient, preventing malfunction due to low voltage conditions.
Applications:
- Non-isolated synchronous buck power converters
- Computing and server power supplies
- DC-to-DC converters
- Telecommunications infrastructure
- Networking equipment power supplies
