Integrated discrete MOSFET drivers combine several discrete products into one package to offer MOSFET
driving functionality. With a choice of configurations Philips offers solutions to take load from the driving circuit,
improve the efficiency of the MOSFET and enable design flexibility.
Key features
- Complete MOSFET driving functionality in
one package
- Several configurations available
MOSFET drivers
Key benefits
- Improved MOSFET efficiency by
Minimizing rise and fall time
Fast gate (dis-)charge of the driven
MOSFET
- Takes load from the driving circuit
and thus minimizes the IC power dissipation
- More design flexibility: the control IC and
the MOSFET do not have to be placed as
close as possible anymore
- Cost-effective alternative to IC-solutions
Key applications
- MOSFET driver
- Bipolar power transistor driver
- Push-pull driver
