Notes:
1. Measured on a two-sided PCB with 3 in.2 of
2 oz. copper.
2. Measured on JEDEC standard High-K board.
The A3946 is designed specifically for applications that require
high power unidirectional dc motors, three-phase brushless dc motors, or
other inductive loads. The A3946 provides two high-current gate drive
outputs that are capable of driving a wide range of power N-channel
MOSFETs. The high-side gate driver switches an N-channel MOSFET
that controls current to the load, while the low-side gate driver switches
an N-channel MOSFET as a synchronous rectifier.
A bootstrap capacitor provides the above-battery supply voltage
required for N-channel MOSFETs. An internal charge pump for the
high side allows for dc (100% duty cycle) operation of the half-bridge.
The A3946 is available in a choice of two power packages: a
16-lead SOIC with copper batwing power tab (part number suffix LB),
and a 16-lead TSSOP with exposed thermal pad (suffix LP).
FEATURES
