SGM48524Q
Dual 5A, High-Speed, Low-Side Gate Driver
with Negative Input Voltage Capability
GENERAL DESCRIPTION
FEATURES
The SGM48524Q is a dual high-speed low-side gate
driver for MOSFET and IGBT power switches. It has
rail-to-rail driving capability and can sink and source up
to 5A peak current with capacitive loads. The
propagation delays are very short and well matched
between the two channels that make the device very fit
for applications that need accurate dual gate driving
such as synchronous rectifiers. The matched
propagation delays also allow for paralleling the two
channels when higher driving current is required, such
as for paralleled switches. The input voltage thresholds
are fixed, independent of supply voltage (VDD) and are
compatible with low voltage TTL and CMOS logic.
Noise immunity is excellent due to the wide hysteresis
window between the input low and high thresholds. The
device has internal pull-up/pull-down resistors on the
input pins to ensure low state on the driver output when
the inputs are floating.

The SGM48524Q is a dual non-inverting driver. It has
independent enable pins (ENA and ENB) for each
channel with active-high logic that can be left open for
normal operation because of internal pull-up to VDD.
● Delay Matching between Two Channels: 1ns (TYP)
● Channels can be Paralleled for Higher Drive Current

The SGM48524Q is available in a Green SOIC-8
package. It operates over a temperature range of -40℃
to +125℃.
