DESCRIPTION
The TPS2811 dual high-speed MOSFET driver is capable of delivering peak currents of 2 A into highly capacitive
loads. This performance is achieved with a design that inherently minimizes shoot-through current and consumes
an order of magnitude less supply current than competitive products.
The TPS2811 driver include a regulator to allow operation with supply inputs between 14 V and 40 V. The
regulator output can power other circuitry, provided power dissipation does not exceed package limitations.
When the regulator is not required, REG_IN and REG_OUT can be left disconnected or both can be connected
to VCC or GND.
TPS2811 driver is available in an 8-pin TSSOP package and operates over a ambient temperature range of
−40°C to 125°C.

APPLICATION INFORMATION
The TPS2811 circuits each contain one regulator and two MOSFET drivers. The regulator can be used to limit
VCC to between 10 V and 13 V for a range of input voltages from 14 V to 40 V, while providing up to 20 mA of dc
drive. The TPS2811 has inverting drivers. These MOSFET drivers are capable of supplying up to 2.1 A or sinking
up to 1.9 A (see Figures 15 and 16) of instantaneous current to n-channel or p-channel MOSFETs. The
TPS2811 MOSFET drivers have very fast switching times combined with very short propagation delays. These
features enhance the operation of today’s high-frequency circuits.
The CMOS input circuit has a positive threshold of approximately 2/3 of VCC, with a negative threshold of 1/3 of
VCC, and a very high input impedance in the range of 109Ω. Noise immunity is also very high because of the
Schmitt-trigger switching. In addition, the design is such that the normal shoot-through current in CMOS (when
the input is biased halfway between VCC and ground) is limited to less than 6 mA. The limited shoot-through is
evident in the graphs in Figures 17 and 18. The input stage shown in the functional block diagram better
illustrates the way the front end works. The circuitry of the device is such that regardless of the rise and/or fall
time of the input signal, the output signal will always have a fast transition speed; this basically isolates the
waveforms at the input from the output. Therefore, the specified switching times are not affected by the slopes of
the input waveforms.
The basic driver portion of the circuits operate over a supply voltage range of 4 V to 14 V with a maximum bias
current of 5 µA. Each driver consists of a CMOS input and a buffered output with a 2-A instantaneous drive
capability. They have propagation delays of less than 30 ns and rise and fall times of less than 20 ns each.
Placing a 0.1-µF ceramic capacitor between VCC and ground is recommended; this will supply the instantaneous
current needed by the fast switching and high current surges of the driver when it is driving a MOSFET.
The output circuit is also shown in the functional block diagram. This driver uses a unique combination of a
bipolar transistor in parallel with a MOSFET for the ability to swing from VCC to ground while providing 2 A of
instantaneous driver current. This unique parallel combination of bipolar and MOSFET output transistors provides
the drive required at VCC and ground to guarantee turn-off of even low-threshold MOSFETs. Typical bipolar-only
output devices don’t easily approach VCC or ground.
The regulator included in the TPS2811 has an input voltage range of 14 V to 40 V. It produces an output voltage
of 10 V to 13 V and is capable of supplying from 0 to 20 mA of output current. In grounded source applications,
this extends the overall circuit operation to 40 V by clamping the driver supply voltage (VCC) to a safe level for
both the driver and the MOSFET gate. The bias current for full operation is a maximum of 150 µA. A 0.1-µF
capacitor connected between the regulator output and ground is required to ensure stability. For transient
response, an additional 4.7-µF electrolytic capacitor on the output and a 0.1-µF ceramic capacitor on the input
will optimize the performance of this circuit. When the regulator is not in use, it can be left open at both the input
and the output, or the input can be shorted to the output and tied to either the VCC or the ground pin of the chip.

Matching and Paralleling Connections
Figure 19 and Figure 20 show the delays for the rise and fall time of each channel. As can be seen on a 5-ns
scale, there is very little difference between the two channels at no load. Figures 23 and 24 show the difference
between the two channels for a 1-nF load on each output. There is a slight delay on the rising edge, but little or
no delay on the falling edge. As an example of extreme overload, Figures 25 and 26 show the difference
between the two channels, or two drivers in the package, each driving a 10-nF load. As would be expected, the
rise and fall times are significantly slowed down. Figures 28 and 29 show the effect of paralleling the two
channels and driving a 1-nF load. A noticeable improvement is evident in the rise and fall times of the output
waveforms. Finally, Figures 30 and 31 show the two drivers being paralleled to drive the 10-nF load and as could
be expected the waveforms are improved. In summary, the paralleling of the two drivers in a package enhances
the capability of the drivers to handle a larger load. Because of manufacturing tolerances, it is not recommended
to parallel drivers that are not in the same package.

Figures 33 through 47 illustrate the performance of the TPS2811 driving MOSFETs with clamped inductive loads,
similar to what is encountered in discontinuous-mode flyback converters. The MOSFETs that were tested range
in size from Hex-1 to Hex-4, although the TPS28xx family is only recommended for Hex-3 or below.
The test circuit is shown in Figure 32. The layout rules observed in building the test circuit also apply to real
applications. Decoupling capacitor C1 is a 0.1-µF ceramic device, connected between VCC and GND of the
TPS2811, with short lead lengths. The connection between the driver output and the MOSFET gate, and
between GND and the MOSFET source, are as short as possible to minimize inductance. Ideally, GND of the
driver is connected directly to the MOSFET source. The tests were conducted with the pulse generator frequency
set very low to eliminate the need for heat sinking, and the duty cycle was set to turn off the MOSFET when the
drain current reached 50% of its rated value. The input voltage was adjusted to clamp the drain voltage at 80%
of its rating.
As shown, the driver is capable of driving each of the Hex-1 through Hex-3 MOSFETs to switch in 20 ns or less.
Even the Hex-4 is turned on in less than 20 ns. Figures 45, 46 and 47 show that paralleling the two drivers in a
package enhances the gate waveforms and improves the switching speed of the MOSFET. Generally, one driver
is capable of driving up to a Hex-4 size. The TPS2811 family is even capable of driving large MOSFETs that
have a low gate charge.

Synchronous Buck Regulator
Figure 48 is the schematic for a 100-kHz synchronous-rectified buck converter implemented with a TL5001
pulse-width-modulation (PWM) controller and a TPS2812 driver. The bill of materials is provided in Table 1. The
converter operates over an input range from 5.5 V to 12 V and has a 3.3-V output capable of supplying 3 A
continuously and 5 A during load surges. The converter achieves an efficiency of 90.6% at 3 A and 87.6% at 5 A.
Figures 49 and 50 show the power switch switching performance. The output ripple voltage waveforms are
documented in Figures 54 and 55.
The TPS2812 drives both the power switch, Q2, and the synchronous rectifier, Q1. Large shoot-through currents,
caused by power switch and synchronous rectifier remaining on simultaneously during the transitions, are
prevented by small delays built into the drive signals, using CR2, CR3, R11, R12, and the input capacitance of
the TPS2812. These delays allow the power switch to turn off before the synchronous rectifier turns on and vice
versa. Figure 51 shows the delay between the drain of Q2 and the gate of Q1; expanded views are provided in
Figures 52 and 53.
