8.4.2 Conduction Mode

For the LM74500-Q1 to operate in conduction mode the gate driver must be enabled as described in the Gate Driver section. If these conditions are achieved the GATE pin is internally connected to the VCAP pin resulting in the GATE to SOURCE voltage being approximately the same as the VCAP to SOURCE voltage. By connecting VCAP to GATE the external MOSFET's RDS(ON) is minimized reducing the power loss of the external MOSFET when forward currents are large.
