EL7242: Dual Input, High Speed, Dual Channel Power MOSFET Driver

The EL7242/EL7252 dual input, 2-channel drivers achieve the same excellent switching performance of the EL7212 family while providing added flexibility. The 2-input logic and configuration is applicable to numerous power MOSFET drive circuits. As with other Intersil drivers, the EL7242/EL7252 are excellent for driving large capacitive loads with minimal delay and switching times. "Shoot-thru" protection and latching circuits can be implemented by simply "cross-coupling" the 2-channels.

Key Features
  • Logic AND/NAND input
  • 3V and 5V Input compatible
  • Clocking speeds up to 10MHz
  • 20ns Switching/delay time
  • 2A Peak drive
  • Isolated drains
  • Low output impedance
  • Low quiescent current
  • Wide operating voltage — 4.5V to 16V
  • Pb-free available (RoHS compliant)
Applications
  • Short circuit protected switching
  • Undervoltage shut-down circuits
  • Switch-mode power supplies
  • Motor controls
  • Power MOSFET switching
  • Switching capacitive loads
  • Shoot-thru protection
