MIC4100/1
100V Half Bridge MOSFET Drivers
General Description
The MIC4100/1 are high frequency, 100V Half Bridge
MOSFET driver ICs featuring fast 30ns propagation delay
times. The low-side and high-side gate drivers are
independently controlled and matched to within 3ns
typical. The MIC4100 has CMOS input thresholds, and the
MIC4101 has TTL input thresholds. The MIC4100/1
include a high voltage internal diode that charges the high-
side gate drive bootstrap capacitor.
A robust, high-speed, and low power level shifter provides
clean level transitions to the high side output. The robust
operation of the MIC4100/1 ensures the outputs are not
affected by supply glitches, HS ringing below ground, or
HS slewing with high speed voltage transitions. Under-
voltage protection is provided on both the low-side and
high-side drivers.
The MIC4100 is available in the SOIC-8L package with a
junction operating range from –40°C to +125°C.
