DESCRIPTION
SiP41103 is a high-speed synchronous rectification
MOSFET driver with adaptive shoot-through protection for use in high frequency, high-current, multiphase DC-DC synchronous rectifier buck converter.
It is designed to operate at the switching frequencies
up to 1 MHz. The high-side driver is bootstrapped to
allow driving N-Channel MOSFET. Adaptive shootthrough protection prevents simultaneous conduction
of external MOSFETs. Adding a capacitor to the delay
pin can further increase the high-side driver turn-on
delay by 1.2 ns/pF for further shoot-through protection.

DETAILED OPERATION
PWM
The PWM pin controls the switching of the external
MOSFETs. The driver logic operates in a noninverting
configuration. The PWM input stage should be driven
by a signal with fast transition times, like those provided by a PWM controller or logic gate, (< 200 ns).
The PWM input functions as a logic input and is not
intended for applications where a slow changing input
voltage is used to generate a switching output when
the input switching threshold voltage is reached.
Enable
The device is enabled by edge sensing of transitions
on PWM, high or low. A minimum PWM frequency of
2 kHz is required to keep the device enabled. When
continuous PWM transitions are present, and after
power-on reset time has elapsed, OUTH and OUTL will
become active.
Low-Side Driver
The supplies for the low-side driver are VDD and GND.
During shutdown, OUTL is held low.
High-Side Driver
The high-side driver is isolated from the substrate to
create a floating high-side driver so that an N-Channel
MOSFET can be used for the high-side switch. The
supplies for the high-side driver are BOOT and LX.
The voltage is supplied by a floating bootstrap capaci-

S-61692–Rev. E, 04-Sep-06
tor, which is continually recharged by the switching
action of the output. During shutdown OUTH is held
low.
Bootstrap Circuit
The internal bootstrap diode and a bootstrap capacitor
form a charge pump that supplies voltage to the BOOT
pin. An integrated bootstrap diode replaces the external Schottky diode and bootstrap only a capacitor is
necessary to complete the circuit. The bootstrap
capacitor is sized according to.
CBOOT = (QGate/ΔVBOOT- LX) x 10
where QGATE is the gate charge needed to turn on the
high-side MOSFET and ΔVBOOT-LX is the amount of
droop allowed in the bootstrap supply voltage when
the high-side MOSFET is driven high. The bootstrap
capacitor value is typically 0.1 µF to 1 µF. The bootstrap capacitor voltage rating must be greater than
VDD + 5 V to withstand transient spikes and ringing.
Shoot-Through Protection
The external MOSFETs are prevented from conducting at the same time during transitions. Break-beforemake circuits monitor the voltages on the LX pin and
the OUTL pin and control the switching as follows:
When the signal on PWM goes low, OUTH will go low
after an internal propagation delay. After the voltage

on LX falls below 1 V by the inductor action, the lowside driver is enabled and OUTL goes high after some
delay. When the signal on PWM goes high, OUTL will
go low after an internal propagation delay. After the
voltage on OUTL drops below 1 V the high-side driver
is enabled OUTH will go high after an internal propagation delay. If LX does not drop below 1 V within 400 ns
after OUTH goes low, OUTL is forced high until the next
PWM transition.
Delay
The addition of a capacitor between DELAY and GND
will increase the propagation delay time for OUTH
going high. Delay capacitance may be added to prevent shoot-through current in the low-side MOSFET
due to the finite time between OUTL going low and the
continuing conduction of the low-side MOSFET.
Choose a MOSFET with lower gate resistance to
reduce this effect. If necessary, choose a capacitor
value that prevents MOSFET conduction under worstcase temperature and manufacturing conditions. Propagation delay is increased according to the ratio of
1.2 ns/pF.
Synchronous MOSFET Enable
Under light load conditions, efficiency can be
increased by disabling the synchronous MOSFET,
thus avoiding the gate charge losses of the synchronous MOSFET. When ENSYNC is low, OUTL is forced
low. When high, the low-side driver operates normally.
ENSYNC should be driven by a 5-V signal.
Shutdown
The driver enters shutdown mode when a period of
inactivity on PWM elapses. Shutdown current is less
than 1 µA.
VDD Bypass Capacitor
MOSFET drivers draw large peak currents from the
supplies when they switch. A local bypass capacitor is
required to supply this current and reduce power supply noise. Connect a 1 µF ceramic capacitor as close
as practical between the VDD and GND pins.
Undervoltage Lockout
Undervoltage lockout prevents control of the circuit
until the supply voltages reach valid operating levels.
The UVLO circuit forces OUTL and OUTH to low when
VDD is below its specified voltage. A separate UVLO
forces OUTH low when the voltage between BOOT
and LX is below the specified voltage.
Thermal Protection
If the temperature rises above 165 °C, the thermal protection disables the drivers. The drivers are re-enabled
after the temperature has decreased below 140 °C.
