Packages
The TC4426/TC4427/TC4428 are improved versions
of the earlier TC426/TC427/TC428 family of MOSFET
drivers. The TC4426/TC4427/TC4428 devices have
matched rise and fall times when charging and
discharging the gate of a MOSFET.
Applications:
These devices are highly latch-up resistant under any
conditions within their power and voltage ratings. They
are not subject to damage when up to 5V of noise
spiking (of either polarity) occurs on the ground pin.
They can accept, without damage or logic upset, up to
500 mA of reverse current (of either polarity) being
forced back into their outputs. All terminals are fully
protected against Electrostatic Discharge (ESD) up to
2.0 kV.
The TC4426/TC4427/TC4428 MOSFET drivers can
easily charge/discharge 1000 pF gate capacitances in
under 30 ns. These devices provide low enough
impedances in both the On and Off states to ensure the
MOSFET’s intended state is not affected, even by large
transients.
Other compatible drivers are the TC4426A/TC4427A/
TC4428A family of devices. The TC4426A/TC4427A/
TC4428A devices have matched leading and falling
edge input-to-output delay times, in addition to the
matched rise and fall times of the TC4426/TC4427/
TC4428 devices.

Symbol
Description
Output B
Supply input
Output A
Duplicate pins must be connected for proper operation.
Inputs A and B
MOSFET driver inputs A and B are high-impedance,
TTL/CMOS compatible inputs. These inputs also have
300 mV of hysteresis between the high and low
thresholds that prevents output glitching even when the
rise and fall time of the input signal is very slow.
3.2
Supply Input (VDD)
The VDD input is the bias supply for the MOSFET driver
and is rated for 4.5V to 18V with respect to the Ground
pin. The VDD input should be bypassed with local
ceramic capacitors. The value of these capacitors
should be chosen based on the capacitive load that is
being driven. A value of 1.0 µF is suggested.
Ground (GND)
Ground is the device return pin. The Ground pin(s)
should have a low-impedance connection to the bias
supply source return. High peak current flows out the
Ground pin(s) when the capacitive load is being
discharged.
3.3
3.4
3.5
Exposed Metal Pad
The exposed metal pad of the 6x5 DFN-S package is
not internally connected to any potential. Therefore,
this pad can be connected to a ground plane or other
copper plane on a Printed Circuit Board (PCB), to aid
in heat removal from the package.
Output A and B
MOSFET driver outputs A and B are low-impedance,
CMOS push-pull style outputs. The pull-down and pullup devices are of equal strength, making the rise and
fall times equivalent.
