MIC4126/27/28
Dual 1.5A-Peak Low-Side MOSFET
Drivers in Advanced Packaging
General Description
The MIC4126, MIC4127, and MIC4128 family are highly-
reliable dual 1.5A low-side MOSFET drivers fabricated on
Micrel’s BiCMOS/DMOS process. The devices feature low
power consumption and high efficiency. The
MIC4126/27/28 translate TTL or CMOS input logic levels to
output voltage levels that swing within 25mV of the positive
supply or ground whereas comparable bipolar devices are
capable of swinging only to within 1V of the supply. The
MIC4126/7/8 is available in three configurations: dual
inverting, dual non-inverting, and complimentary output.
The MIC4126/27/28 offer pin-compatible as well as smaller
footprint replacements for the MIC4426/27/28 with
improved packaging and electrical performance. The
MIC4126/27/28 are available in exposed pad, EPAD,
SOIC-8L and MSOP-8L options as well as a small-size
3mm x 3mm MLF™-8L option. The devices have an input
operating range of 4.5V to 20V.
Primarily intended for driving power MOSFETs,
MIC4426/7/8 drivers are suitable for driving other loads
(capacitive, resistive, or inductive) which require low-
impedance, high peak current, and fast switching time. The
devices can withstand up to 500mA of reverse current
(either polarity) without latching and up to 5V noise spikes
(either polarity) on ground pins.
