ON Semiconductor ADP3416JRZ-REEL Dual Bootstrapped 12 V MOSFET Driver with Output Disable

The ADP3416JRZ-REEL from ON Semiconductor is a powerful and versatile dual bootstrapped 12 V MOSFET driver, designed to drive two N-channel MOSFETs in a synchronous buck power converter. This integrated circuit (IC) is highly suitable for a wide range of applications, including computing and networking systems, graphics cards, and a variety of high-efficiency power supply solutions.

The ADP3416JRZ-REEL is available in a convenient surface-mount package and comes on a reel, making it ideal for automated high-volume production processes. Its robust design includes features such as adaptive shoot-through protection, which prevents both the high-side and low-side MOSFETs from conducting simultaneously, thereby reducing the risk of damaging the components due to shoot-through currents.

One of the key features of this MOSFET driver is its output disable function, which allows the user to turn off the outputs, ensuring that the MOSFETs are not driven inadvertently during system start-up or fault conditions. This feature increases the safety and reliability of the overall system by providing a means to quickly disable the power stage if necessary.

The ADP3416JRZ-REEL operates over a wide supply voltage range, from 4.5 V to 13.2 V, providing flexibility in various system designs. It also boasts a high peak current drive capability, with 2 A source and 1.6 A sink currents, ensuring that it can effectively drive large capacitive loads with minimal delay and transition times.

The device's high switching frequency capability makes it suitable for high-frequency power conversion, contributing to smaller, more compact power supply designs. Additionally, the IC features under-voltage lockout (UVLO) for both the high-side and low-side drives, ensuring that the MOSFETs are only operational when the supply voltage is within an acceptable range.

Overall, the ADP3416JRZ-REEL MOSFET driver from ON Semiconductor is a reliable and efficient solution for modern power conversion applications, offering protection features, high drive capability, and operational flexibility in a small package.
