has to be long enough to charge the capacitor.
The bootstrap driver introduces a voltage drop due to the DMOS RDSON (typical value: 125 Ohm). At low fre-
quency this drop can be neglected. Anyway increasing the frequency it must be taken in to account.
The following equation is useful to compute the drop on the bootstrap DMOS:
where Q

For example: using a power MOS with a total gate charge of 30nC the drop on the bootstrap DMOS is about
1V, if the T
