Description
The MIC5018 IttyBitty™ high-side MOSFET driver is designed to switch an N-channel enhancement-type MOSFET from a TTL compatible control signal in high- or low-side switch applications.
Features
- the tiny 4-lead SOT-143 package. The MIC5018 is powered from a +2.7V to +9V supply and features extremely low off-state supply current. An internal charge pump drives the gate output higher than the driver supply voltage and can sustain the gate voltage indefinitely. An internal zener diode limits the gate-to-source voltage to a safe level for standard N-channel MOSFETs. In high-side configurations, the source voltage of the MOSFET approaches the supply voltage when switched on. To keep the MOSF.
