MIC3808/3809
Output Drivers
OUTA and OUTB are alternating output stages, which switch
at half the oscillator frequency. A toggle flip-flop in the
MIC3808/9 guarantee both outputs will not be on at the same
time. The RC discharge time is the dead time, where both
outputs are off. This provides an adjustable non-overlap time
to prevent shoot through currents and transformer saturation
in the power supply.
The output drivers are inhibited when V
undervoltage threshold. Internal circuitry prevents the output
drivers from glitching high when V

Decoupling and PCB Layout
PCB layout is critical to achieve reliable, stable and efficient
operation. A ground plane is required to control EMI and
minimize the inductance in power, signal and return paths.
The following guidelines should be followed to insure proper
operation of the circuit:
• Low level signal and power grounds should be kept
