MIC4129

In Production

MIC4120 and MIC4129 MOSFET gate drivers are tough, efficient, and easy to use. The MIC4129 is an inverting driver, while the MIC4120 is a non-inverting driver. The MIC4120 and MIC4129 are improved versions of the MIC4420 and MIC4429. They are capable of 6 A (peak) output and can drive the largest MOSFETs with an improved safe operating margin. The MIC4120/4129 accept any logic input from 2.4 V to VS without external speed-up capacitors or resistor networks. Proprietary circuits allow the input to swing negative by as much as 5 V without damaging the part. Additional circuits protect against damage from electrostatic discharge. MIC4120/4129 drivers can replace three or more discrete components, reducing PCB area requirements, simplifying product design, and reducing assembly cost. Modern Bi...

    MIC4120 and MIC4129 MOSFET gate drivers are tough, efficient, and easy to use. The MIC4129 is an inverting driver, while the MIC4120 is a non-inverting driver. The MIC4120 and MIC4129 are improved versions of the MIC4420 and MIC4429. They are capable of 6 A (peak) output and can drive the largest MOSFETs with an improved safe operating margin. The MIC4120/4129 accept any logic input from 2.4 V to VS without external speed-up capacitors or resistor networks. Proprietary circuits allow the input to swing negative by as much as 5 V without damaging the part. Additional circuits protect against damage from electrostatic discharge. MIC4120/4129 drivers can replace three or more discrete components, reducing PCB area requirements, simplifying product design, and reducing assembly cost. Modern BiCMOS/DMOS construction guarantees freedom from latch-up. The rail-to-rail swing capability insures adequate gate voltage to the MOSFET during power up/down sequencing.
