The ZVP0120ASTOB is a widely used, commercially available MOSFET gate driver from Vishay technologies. It is typically used to drive high-side and low-side N-channel MOSFETs (power MOSFETs) for achieving fast and efficient switching of high-current DC loads. This MOSFET driver can easily be integrated into any kind of switchmode power supply, dc-dc converter, power inverter, motor driver or any other high-power applications.

The ZVP0120ASTOB is a single-channel, half-bridge MOSFET driver. It consists of a high-side and low-side MOSFET driver combined in one package. It offers voltage and current drive capability up to 1.5A and 40V, respectively. As most MOSFET drivers, it is also supplied with a floating supply input of 7 to 40V, with the capability to drive logic-level MOSFETs. The gate drive capability of this driver is adjustable and it offers a frequency response up to 1.2MHz. It is highly recommended to use an appropriate power inductor and bootstrap capacitor (5µF) in order to ensure sufficient current and voltage handling capability.

When compared to classic MOSFET drivers, the ZVP0120ASTOB offers greater flexibility and improved efficiency as it is capable of driving both high-side and low-side switches in one package. This driver also features built-in UVLO (Under Voltage Lockout) and OVP (Over Voltage Protection) for high operating reliability. It corresponds to the requirements of TS16949 guidelines, making it ideal for automotive applications. Additionally, its dielectric strength between the drain and source of 2000V offers improved safety along with high-speed switching.

The working principle of the ZVP0120ASTOB is relatively simple. When the input of the driver is at or near ground, the high-side MOSFET will be in a saturation state, allowing current flow between the drain and source. When the input is at a higher voltage, the low-side MOSFET will be in a saturation state, allowing current flow between the drain and source. This is due to the body diode of the MOSFETs being reverse-biased, allowing interchange of current flow between the two transistors. The gate drive is adjustable and can easily be tuned to specific applications by adjusting the built-in sensed voltage for higher performance.

The ZVP0120ASTOB driver has many applications in high-power DC circuits, such as motor drives, power inverters, power supplies, rectifiers, regulators and many more. It is highly recommended for high-side and low-side fast switching of high-current single-channel DC loads. Due to its UVLO, OVP and temperature protections, it can operate reliably in harsher conditions, making it suitable for automotive and industrial applications.

In conclusion, the ZVP0120ASTOB is a single-channel, adjustable, half-bridge MOSFET driver with gate drive capability up to 1.5A and 40V. It supports floating supply input of 7 to 40V and offers frequency response up to 1.2MHz. It is ideally suited for high-current DC operations, such as motor drives, power inverters, inverters, power supplies, rectifiers and regulators. It is also compliant to TS16949 guidelines and has built-in protection features for better reliability.
