describe
Lm5111 dual gate driver replaces the industry standard gate driver with improved peak output current and efficiency. Each composite output driver stage includes MOS and bipolar transistors working in parallel, which together absorb peaks of more than 5-a from capacitive loads. Combining the unique characteristics of MOS and bipolar devices, the variation of driving current with voltage and temperature is reduced. At the same time, it also provides low-voltage locking protection. The driver can operate in parallel with input and output connections to double the drive current capability. The device is available in the SOIC package or the thermally enhanced msoppowerpad package.
