Fairchild's automotive qualified high-speed, low-side driver family increases efficiency

SAN JOSE, USA: Automotive applications using power MOSFETs require gate drivers with high peak drive current and low output impedance.

The FAN31xx_F085 and FAN32xx_F085 series of high-speed, low-side automotive qualified gate drivers from Fairchild Semiconductor offer flexibility for power supply and other high-efficiency MOSFET switching applications, providing a wide selection of feature and performance combinations to create compact, highly efficient and reliable designs.

These AEC-Q100 qualified drivers are available in an SO8 package with a choice of TTL or CMOS input thresholds. This ensures the best possible design compatibility. The drivers have two inputs for each channel (either Dual-input (+ and - logic), Inverting and Enable, or Non-inverting and Enable) offering design flexibility.
