that drives two N-channel MOSFETs in a DC/DC converter
with supply voltages up to 100V. The powerful driver ca-
pability reduces switching losses in MOSFETs with high
gate capacitance. The LTC4446’s pull-up for the top gate
driver has a peak output current of 2.5A and its pull-down
has an output impedance of 1.2Ω. The pull-up for the bot-
tom gate driver has a peak output current of 3A and the
pull-down has an output impedance of 0.55Ω.
The LTC4446 is configured for two supply-independent
inputs. The high side input logic signal is internally
level-shifted to the bootstrapped supply, which may
function at up to 114V above ground.
The LTC4446 contains undervoltage lockout circuits that
disable the external MOSFETs when activated.
The LTC4446 is available in the thermally enhanced 8-lead
MSOP package.
The LTC4446 does not have adaptive shoot-through pro-
tection. For similar drivers with adaptive shoot-through
protection, please refer to the chart below.

Note 1:
Stresses beyond those listed under Absolute Maximum Ratings
may cause permanent damage to the device. Exposure to any Absolute
Maximum Rating condition for extended periods may affect device
reliability and lifetime.
Note 2:
The LTC4446E is guaranteed to meet specifications from
0°C to 85°C. Specifications over the –40°C to 85°C operating
temperature range are assured by design, characterization and correlation
–15

with statistical process controls. The LTC4446I is guaranteed over the full
–40°C to 85°C operating temperature range.
Note 3:
