8.3.8 Dead-Time Control and MOSFET Drivers

Adaptive dead-time control prevents shoot-through current from flowing in both N-channel power MOSFETs during the switching transitions by actively controlling the turn-on times of the MOSFET drivers. The high-side driver does not turn on until the gate drive voltage to the low-side FET is below 2 V. The low-side driver does not turn on until the voltage at the gate of the high-side MOSFETs is below 2 V. The high-side and low-side drivers are designed with 300-mA source and sink capability to quickly drive the power MOSFETs gates. The low-side driver is supplied from VIN, while the high-side drive is supplied from the BOOT pin. A bootstrap circuit uses an external BOOT capacitor and an internal 2.5-Ω bootstrap switch connected between the VIN and BOOT pins. The integrated bootstrap switch improves drive efficiency and reduces external component count.
