4.1
MOSFET drivers are high-speed, high current devices
which are intended to provide high peak currents to
charge the gate capacitance of external MOSFETs or
IGBTs. In high frequency switching power supplies, the
PWM controller may not have the drive capability to
directly drive the power MOSFET. A MOSFET driver
like the MCP1406/07 family can be used to provide
additional drive current capability.
4.2
The ability of a MOSFET driver to transition from a fully
off state to a fully on state are characterized by the
drivers rise time (t

devices is able to make this transition very quickly.
Figure 4-1 and Figure 4-2 show the test circuits and
timing waveforms used to verify the MCP1406/07 tim-

Careful layout and decoupling capacitors are highly
recommended when using MOSFET drivers. Large
currents are required to charge and discharge
capacitive loads quickly. For example, 2.25A are
needed to charge a 2500 pF load with 18V in 20 ns.
To operate the MOSFET driver over a wide frequency
range with low supply impedance, a ceramic and low
ESR film capacitor are recommended to be placed in
parallel between the driver V
ESR film capacitor and a 0.1 µF ceramic capacitor
placed between pins 1, 8 and 4, 5 should be used.
These capacitors should be placed close to the driver
to minimized circuit board parasitics and provide a local
source for the required current.
4.4
Proper PCB layout is important in a high current, fast
switching circuit to provide proper device operation and
robustness of design. PCB trace loop area and
inductance should be minimized by the use of a ground
plane or ground trace located under the MOSFET gate
drive signals, separate analog and power grounds, and
local driver decoupling.
