MAX17600–MAX17605
EVALUATION KIT AVAILABLE
4A Sink/Source Current,
12ns, Dual MOSFET Drivers
General Description
The MAX17600–MAX17605 devices are high-speed
MOSFET drivers capable of sinking /sourcing 4A peak
currents. The devices have various inverting and non-
inverting part options that provide greater flexibility in
controlling the MOSFET. The devices have internal
logic circuitry that prevents shoot-through during output-
state changes. The logic inputs are protected against
voltage spikes up to +14V, regardless of VDD volt-
age. Propagation delay time is minimized and matched
between the dual channels. The devices have very fast
switching time, combined with short propagation delays
(12ns typ), making them ideal for high-frequency circuits.
The devices operate from a +4V to +14V single power
supply and typically consume 1mA of supply current. The
MAX17600/MAX17601 have standard TTL input logic
levels, while the MAX17603 /MAX17604/MAX17605 have
CMOS-like high-noise margin (HNM) input logic levels.
The MAX17600/MAX17603 are dual inverting input driv-
ers, the MAX17601/MAX17604 are dual noninverting
input drivers, and the MAX17602/MAX17605 devices
have one noninverting and one inverting input. These
devices are provided with enable pins (ENA, ENB) for
better control of driver operation.
These devices are available in 8-pin (3mm x 3mm) TDFN,
8-pin (3mm x 5mm) µMAX®, and 8-pin SO packages and
operate over the -40°C to +125°C temperature range.
