General Description

The MAX15024/MAX15025 single/dual, high-speed MOSFET gate drivers are capable of operating at frequencies up to 1MHz with large capacitive loads. The MAX15024 includes internal source-and-sink output transistors with independent outputs allowing for control of the external MOSFET’s rise and fall time. The MAX15024 is a single gate driver capable of sinking an 8A peak current and sourcing a 4A peak current. The MAX15025 is a dual gate driver capable of sinking a 4A peak current and sourcing a 2A peak current. An integrated adjustable LDO voltage regulator provides gate drive amplitude control and optimization.
