DESCRIPTION
The TPS28226 is a high-speed driver for N-channel
complimentary driven power MOSFETs with adaptive
dead-time control. This driver is optimized for use in
variety of high-current one and multi-phase dc-to-dc
converters. The TPS28226 is a solution that provides
highly efficient, small size low EMI emmissions.
The performance is achieved by up to 8.8-V gate
drive voltage, 14-ns adaptive dead-time control, 14-ns
propagation delays and high-current 2-A source and
4-A sink drive capability. The 0.4-Ω impedance for
the lower gate driver holds the gate of power
MOSFET below its threshold and ensures no
shoot-through current at high dV/dt phase node
transitions. The bootstrap capacitor charged by an
internal diode allows use of N-channel MOSFETs in
half-bridge configuration.
The TPS28226 features a 3-state PWM input
compatible with all multi-phase controllers employing
3-state output feature. As long as the input stays
within 3-state window for the 250-ns hold-off time, the
driver switches both outputs low. This shutdown
mode prevents a load from the reversed-
output-voltage.
The other features include under voltage lockout,
thermal shutdown and two-way enable/power good
signal. Systems without 3-state featured controllers
can use enable/power good input/output to hold both
outputs low during shutting down.
The TPS28226 is offered in an economical SOIC-8
and thermally enhanced low-size Dual Flat No-Lead
(DFN-8) packages. The driver is specified in the
extended temperature range of –40°C to 125°C with
the absolute maximum junction temperature 150°C.
