PRODUCTION DATA
Refer to the PDF data sheet for device specific package drawings
The MOSFET gate driver of the LM5150-Q1 is powered by the internal 5-V VCC regulator. The MOSFET driven by the LM5150-Q1 must have a logic-level gate threshold with its on-resistance specified at 4.5 V or lower and must be rated to handle the maximum output voltage plus any switch node ringing. The maximum gate charge is limited by the 75-mA PVCC sourcing current limit, and is calculated as follows:
A leadless package is preferred for high switching-frequency designs. The MOSFET gate capacitance should be small enough so that the gate voltage is fully discharged during the off-time.
