DESCRIPTION
It integrates a low drop linear regulator generating the supply voltage for both low-side and high-side gate drivers through a bootstrap circuitry. The device provides Under Voltage Lock Out (UVLO) on both the low-side and high-side sections, preventing the power switches from operating in low efficiency or dangerous conditions.
