The following graphs are used to determine the
maximum gate charge that can be driven with respect to
supply voltage and ambient temperature. Figure 2 shows
the power dissipation in the driver for different values of
gate charge.

Figure 3 shows the maximum allowable power
dissipation vs ambient temperature. For a given total
gate charge, the maximum operating ambient
temperature can be found by using the two graphs.
