About this manual

The TC4431 and TC4432 are 30 V CMOS buffer/drivers designed for high‑side MOSFET driver applications. They feature a wide supply range, high peak output current, and built‑in latch‑up and ESD protection. The devices can tolerate up to 300 mA of reverse current and include an under‑voltage lockout circuit that can be disabled via the LOCK DIS pin.

Key specifications include a 1.5 A peak output current, 4.5 V‑30 V supply range, low output impedance, and fast switching times (rise < 40 ns, fall < 50 ns). Pin descriptions, typical performance curves, and packaging details are provided to aid designers in implementing the drivers in motor‑drive, power MOSFET, and transistor‑driving circuits.
