APPLICATIONS INFORMATION
in cost-driven applications providing that consideration
is given to ripple current ratings, temperature and long
term reliability. A typical application will require several
to many aluminum electrolytic capacitors in parallel. A
combination of the above mentioned capacitors will often
result in maximizing performance and minimizing overall
cost. Other capacitor types include Nichicon PL series,
Panasonic SP , NEC Neocap, Cornell Dubilier ESRE and
Sprague 595D series. Consult manufacturers for other
specifi c recommendations.
INTV
An internal P-channel low dropout regulator produces
5V at the INTV

The INTV

of 4.7μF tantalum, 10μF special polymer, or low ESR type
electrolytic capacitor. A 1μF ceramic capacitor placed di-
rectly adjacent to the INTV
recommended. Good bypassing is necessary to supply
the high transient currents required by the MOSFET gate
drivers and to prevent interaction between channels.
Higher input voltage applications in which large MOSFETs
are being driven at high frequencies may cause the maxi-
mum junction temperature rating for the IC to be exceeded.
The system supply current is normally dominated by the
gate charge current. Additional external loading of the
