Check for Samples: LM2725, LM2726 FEATURES DESCRIPTION The LM2725/LM2726 is a family of dual MOSFET
drivers that drive both the top MOSFET and bottom
MOSFET in a push-pull structure simultaneously. It
takes a logic level PWM input and splits it into two
complimentary signals with a typical 20ns dead time
in between. The built-in shoot-through protection
circuitry prevents the top and bottom FETs from
turning on simultaneously. With a bias voltage of 5V,
the peak sourcing and sinking current for each driver
of the LM2725 is about 1.2A and that of the LM2726
is about 3A. In an SOIC-8 package, each driver is
able to handle 50mA average current. When EN
signal is asserted the input UVLO (Under Voltage
Lock Out) ensures that all the driver outputs stay low
until the supply rail exceeds the power-on threshold
during system power on, or after the supply rail drops
below power-on threshold by a specified hysteresis
during system power down. The cross-conduction
protection circuitry detects both the driver outputs and
will not turn on a driver until the other driver output is
low. The top gate bias voltage needed by the top …
