The Supertex MD1813 is a high-speed quad MOSFET driver. An adaptive threshold circuit is used to set the level translator threshold to the average of the input logic 0 and logic 1 levels. The level translator uses a proprietary circuit, which provides DC coupling together with high-speed operation. The output stage of the MD1813 has separate power connections, enabling the output signal L and H levels to be chosen independently from the driver supply voltages.
