About this manual

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.
