UCC2742x-EP Dual 4-A High-Speed Low-Side MOSFET Driver With Enable
1 Features
3 Description
•
•
•
•
The UCC27423 and UCC27424 high-speed MOSFET
drivers can deliver large peak currents into capacitive
loads. Two standard logic options are offered – dual
inverting and dual noninverting drivers. The
UCC27424 thermally-enhanced 8-pin PowerPAD™
MSOP package (DGN) drastically lowers the thermal
resistance to improve long-term reliability. The
UCC27423 is offered in a standard SOIC-8 (D)
package.

Using a design that inherently minimizes shootthrough current, this driver delivers 4 A of current
where it is needed most – at the Miller plateau region
during the MOSFET switching transition. A unique
bipolar and MOSFET hybrid output stage in parallel
also allows efficient current sourcing and sinking at
low supply voltages.
The UCC27423 and UCC27424 provide enable
(ENB) functions to better control the operation of the
driver applications. ENBA and ENBB are
implemented on pins 1 and 8, which previously were
left unused in the industry-standard pinout. ENBA and
ENBB are pulled up internally to VDD for active-high
logic and can be left open for standard operation.

Stresses beyond those listed under Absolute Maximum Ratings may cause permanent damage to the device. These are stress ratings
only, which do not imply functional operation of the device at these or any other conditions beyond those indicated under Recommended

The PowerPAD package is not directly connected to any leads of the package. However, it is electrically and thermally connected to the
substrate, which is the ground of the device.
150°C operating junction temperature is used for power-rating calculations.
The range of values indicates the effect of PCB. These values are intended to give the system designer an indication of the best- and
worst-case conditions. In general, the system designer should attempt to use larger traces on the PCB where possible, in order to
spread the heat away from the device more effectively. For information on the PowerPAD package, refer to technical brief, PowerPad™
Thermally-Enhanced Package, SLMA002, and application brief, PowerPad™ Made Easy, SLMA004.
125°C operating junction temperature is used for power-rating calculation.

The pullup/pulldown circuits of the driver are bipolar and MOSFET transistors in parallel. The pulsed output current rating is the
combined current from the bipolar and MOSFET transistors.
The pullup/pulldown circuits of the driver are bipolar and MOSFET transistors in parallel. The output resistance is the RDS(ON) of the
MOSFET transistor when the voltage on the driver output is less than the saturation voltage of the bipolar transistor.

7 Detailed Description
7.1 Overview
High-frequency power supplies often require high-speed, high-current drivers such as the UCC2742x. A leading
application of the UCC2742x provides a high-power buffer stage between the pulse-duration modulation (PWM)
output of the control IC and the gates of the primary power MOSFET or insulated gate bipolar transistor (IGBT)
switching devices. In other cases, the driver IC is used to drive the power-device gates through a drive
transformer. Synchronous rectification supplies also have the need to simultaneously drive multiple devices,
which can present an extremely-large load to the control circuitry.
Driver ICs are used when it is not feasible to have the primary PWM regulator IC directly drive the switching
devices, for one or more reasons. The PWM IC may not have the brute drive capability required for the intended
switching MOSFET, limiting the switching performance in the application. In other cases, there may be a desire
to minimize the effect of high-frequency switching noise by placing the high-current driver physically close to the
load. Also, newer ICs that target the highest operating frequencies may not incorporate onboard gate drivers at
all. Their PWM outputs are intended to drive only the high-impedance input to drivers such as the UCC2742x.
Finally, the control IC may be under thermal stress due to power dissipation, and an external driver can help by
moving the heat from the controller to an external package.

7.3 Feature Description
7.3.1 Input Stage
The input thresholds have a 3.3-V logic sensitivity over the full range of VDD voltages. However, they are equally
compatible with 0 to VDD signals. The inputs of the UCC2742x are designed to withstand 500-mA reverse current
without either damage to the IC or logic upset. The input stage of each driver should be driven by a signal with a
short rise or fall time. This condition is satisfied in typical power-supply applications, where the input signals are
provided by a PWM controller or logic gates with fast transition times (
