To help designers of such systems save component count, board space, design time and cost, Fairchild Semiconductor developed the FAN3180 which is a single, 2-A low-side driver with an integrated 3.3-V output voltage regulator which can power microcontrollers or ASICs as well as provide a strong gate drive for an external semiconductor switch.
Key Features:
• 3.3-V, 15-mA output LDO with ±1 percent regulation at 25 degree C, ±2.5 percent total variation
• Peak gate drive capability of 2.8-A sink and 2.5-A source at VDD = 12 V
• Controlled output pulses during start-up and shut-down
• 23-ns typical propagation delay times
• 19-ns rise and 13-ns fall times with 1-nF load
• MillerDrive Gate Drive Technology
• 5-V to 18-V operating range
• 200-µA maximum standby supply current
• VON / VOFF UVLO of 4.75 V / 4.55 V
• -40 degree C to +125 degree C operation temperature
• Lead (Pb)-free green 5-pin SOT23 package
The FAN3180, part of Fairchild’s comprehensive portfolio of gate drivers, helps designers reduce component count, board space, system costs and design times for today’s electronic designs.
