Gate Drivers | NCP4414

The NCP4413/4414 are 3 A CMOS buffer/drivers. They will not latch up under any conditions within their power and voltage ratings. They are not subject to damage when up to 5 V of noise spiking of either polarity that occurs on the ground pin. They can accept, without damage or logic upset, up to 500 mA of current of either polarity being forced back into their output. All terminals are fully protected against up to 4 kV of electrostatic discharge.

As MOSFET drivers, the NCP4413/4414 can easily switch 1800 pF gate capacitance in 20 nsec with matched rise and fall times, and provide low enough impedance in both the ON and the OFF states to ensure the MOSFET's intended state will not be affected, even by large transients. The rise and fall time edges are matched to allow driving short-duration inputs with greater output accuracy.
