The MCP14A0051 and MCP14A0052 are inverting and non-inverting, 500mA MOSFET drivers in 2x2 DFN and SOT-23 packages. These high-speed MOSFET drivers allow controllers and MCUs to quickly charge and discharge capacitive loads. The small package sizes allow the gate driver to be positioned close to the MOSFET's physical gate connection, which minimizes gate bounce caused by the parasitic effects of PCB layout and reduces EMI. Rise time, fall time, propagation delay and cross-conduction current are all minimized. In addition, these devices feature a unique architecture with low input thresholds, ideally suited for use with a low-voltage MCU to minimize power losses within the system.
