TC429EOA713

The TC429EOA713 integrated circuit (IC) is a two-output gate driver that is widely used in power management integrated circuits (PMICs) for applications such as digital switching and voltage regulation.

Gate drivers are devices that are typically employed between a logic processor, microcontroller, or application-specific integrated circuit (ASIC), and a power circuit. The primary function of gate drivers is to convert a low-level control signal from the processor into a high-current and high-voltage drive signal (gate voltage) required to drive power devices.

The TC429EOA713 is designed to deliver isolated power to two isolated power MOSFETs or IGBTs. The top and bottom outputs have 3-kVrms galvanic isolation and the output can be time delayed and the output device can be turned on and off independently. It requires < 3mVrms input noise immunity, and can handle up to 500mA output current.

The TC429EOA713 also features a voltage regulator to ensure that the output voltage of the gate driver is always stable and accurate. The output current is limited to protect both the gate driver and the output devices from excessive current. It also provides an overtemperature protection circuit which ensures that all output stages are shut down in case of a temperature imbalance.

The TC429EOA713 is a useful, robust, and reliable gate driver for power MOSFETs and IGBTs. Its features ensure that it is suitable for applications such as power switching, DC-DC unregulated and regulated circuits, or any other application which requires fast and reliable switching of the power devices. The TC429EOA713 delivers the necessary electrical and thermal performance under the wide range of operating temperature and operating conditions.
