A4940 - Automotive Full Bridge MOSFET Driver

General Description

The A4940 is a full-bridge controller for use with external N-channel power MOSFETs and is specifically designed for automotive applications with high-power inductive loads such as brush DC motors.

Key Features

  • High-current gate drive for N-channel MOSFET full bridge.
  • Independent control of each MOSFET.
  • Charge pump for low supply voltage operation.
  • Cross-conduction protection with adjustable dead time.
  • 5.5 to 50 V supply voltage range.
  • Diagnostics output.
  • Low current sleep mode.

A4940 Automotive Full-Bridge MOSFET Driver FEATURES AND BENEFITS ▪ High-current gate drive for N-channel MOSFET full bridge ▪ Independent control of each MOSFET ▪ Charge pump for low supply voltage operation ▪ Cross-conduction protection with adjustable dead time ▪ 5.5 to 50 V supply voltage range ▪ Diagnostics output ▪ Low current sleep mode PACKAGE: 24-pin TSSOP with exposed thermal pad (suffix LP) Not to scale DESCRIPTION The A4940 is a full-bridge controller for use with external N-channel power MOSFETs and is specifically designed for automotive applications with high-power inductive loads such as brush DC motors. A unique charge pump regulator provides full ( >10 V ) gate drive for battery voltages down to 7 V and allows the A4940 to operate with a reduced gate drive, down to 5.
