FAN3216 / FAN3217 are high-speed, low-side gate drivers from Fairchild Semiconductor Corporation, supporting TTL inputs and with a wide operating voltage range of 4.5-18V.
The document describes the FAN3216 (dual inverting) and FAN3217 (dual non-inverting) high-speed, low-side gate drivers. These devices are designed to drive N-channel enhancement-mode MOSFETs by providing high peak current pulses during short switching intervals. They feature industry-standard pinouts, TTL input thresholds, and MillerDrive™ technology to minimize switching loss.
| Operating Range | 4.5 to 18V |
|---|---|
| Peak Sink Current (Vpp=12V) | 3A |
| Operating Ambient Temperature | -40°C to +125°C |
The FAN3216 offers two inverting drivers, while the FAN3217 offers two non-inverting drivers.
They are designed for switch-mode power supplies, high-efficiency MOSFET switching, synchronous rectifier circuits, DC-to-DC converters, and motor control.
