The input signals are low voltage TTL and 3.3V CMOS-compatible with a very broad voltage handling capability of up to +20V and down to -10VDC. The unique ability to handle -10VDC at the input pins protects the device against ground bouncing. Each of the two outputs is able to sink and source a 5A current utilizing a true rail-to-rail output stage, which ensures very low impedances of 0.7Ω up to the positive and 0.55Ω down to the negativerail respectively.Excellent channel to channel delay matching, typ. 1ns, enables risk-free doubling of the source and sink capability up to 10A peak through paralleling of both channels. The combination of industry standard pin-outs and different logic input/output configurations guarantee high flexibility and shortens R&D time. The gate driver is available in the three package options: PG-DSO-8-pin, PG-VDSON-8-pin and PG-TDSSO-8-pin (small form-factor, improved thermal performance compared to DSO-8).
