EMB1412
SNOSB66B –AUGUST 2011–REVISED NOVEMBER 2014
EMB1412 MOSFET Gate Driver
1 Features
3 Description
The EMB1412 MOSFET gate driver provides high
peak gate drive current in 8-lead exposed-pad
VSSOP package, with improved power dissipation
required for high frequency operation. The compound
output driver stage includes MOS and bipolar
transistors operating in parallel that together sink
more than 7-A peak from capacitive loads. Combining
the unique characteristics of MOS and bipolar
devices reduces drive current variation with voltage
and temperature. Under-voltage lockout protection is
provided to prevent damage to the MOSFET due to
insufficient gate turn-on voltage. The EMB1412
provides both inverting and non-inverting inputs to
satisfy requirements for inverting and non-inverting
gate drive with a single device type.
