Description
High Speed, Combi-SenseTM Synchronous MOSFET Driver
Manufacturer
SEMTECH [Semtech Corporation]
Datasheet
The SC1211 is a high speed, Combi-Sense
put driver designed to drive high-side and low-side
MOSFETs in a synchronous Buck converter. These
drivers combined with Combi-Sense PWM controllers,
such as Semtech SC2643VX or SC2643, provide a
cost effective multi-phase voltage regulator for advanced
microprocessors.
The Combi-Sense
current for peak current mode control of voltage regula-
tor without using sensing resistor. It provides the follow-
ing advantages:
The detailed explanation of the technique can be found
in the Applications Information section.
A 30ns max propagation delay from input transition to
the gate of the power FET’s guarantees operation at high
switching frequencies. Internal overlap protection circuit
prevents shoot-through from Vin to PGND in the main
and synchronous MOSFETs. The adaptive overlap pro-
tection circuit ensures the bottom FET does not turn on
until the top FET source has reached 1V, to prevent cross-
conduction.
8.5V gate drive provides optimum enhancement of
MOSFETs at minimum driver and MOSFET switching loss.
High current drive capability allows fast switching, thus
reducing switching losses at high (up to 1.5MHz) frequen-
cies without causing thermal stress on the driver.
Under-voltage-lockout and over-temperature shutdown
features are included for proper and safe operation.
Timed latches and improved robustness are built into
the housekeeping functions such as the Under Voltage
Lockout and adaptive Shoot-through protection circuitry
to prevent false triggering and to assure safe operation.
The SC1211 is offered in a Power SOIC-8L package.
