LTC1156
Quad High Side
Micropower MOSFET Driver
with Internal Charge Pump
DESCRIPTIO
The LTC1156 quad High side gate driver allows using low
cost N-channel FETs for high side switching applications.
An internal charge pump boosts the gate drive voltage
above the positive rail, fully enhancing an N-channel MOS
switch with no external components. Micropower opera-
tion, with 16µA standby current and 95µA operating
current, allows use in virtually all systems with maximum
efficiency.
Included on chip is independent over-current sensing to
provide automatic shutdown in case of short circuits. A
time delay can be added to the current sense to prevent
false triggering on high in-rush current loads.
The LTC1156 operates off of a 4.5V to 18V supply and is
well suited for battery-powered applications, particularly
where micropower “sleep” operation is required.
The LTC1156 is available in both 16-pin DIP and 16-pin
SOL packages.

TTL and CMOS Compatible Inputs
Each driver input has been designed to accommodate a
wide range of logic families. The input threshold is set at
1.3V with approximately 100mV of hysteresis.
LTC1156
OPERATIO
A voltage regulator with low standby current provides
continuous bias for the TTL to CMOS converters. The TTL
to CMOS converter output enables the rest of the circuitry.
In this way the power consumption is kept to a minimum
in the standby mode.
Internal Voltage Regulation
The output of the TTL to CMOS converter drives two
regulated supplies which power the low voltage CMOS
logic and analog blocks. The regulator outputs are isolated
from each other so that the noise generated by the charge
pump logic is not coupled into the 100mV reference or the
analog comparator.
Gate Charge Pump
Gate drive for the power MOSFET is produced by an
adaptive charge pump circuit which generates a gate
voltage substantially higher than the power supply volt-
age. The charge pump capacitors are included on chip and
therefore no external components are required to generate
the gate drive.

Drain Current Sense
The LTC1156 is configured to sense the drain current of
the power MOSFET in high side applications. An internal
100mV reference is compared to the drop across a sense
resistor (typically 0.002Ω to 0.1Ω) in series with the drain
lead. If the drop across this resistor exceeds the internal
100mV threshold, the input latch is reset and the gate is
quickly discharged by a large N-channel transistor. A
simple RC network can be added to delay the over-current
protection so that large in-rush current loads such as
lamps or capacitors can be started.
Supply and Ground Pins
The two supply pins (3 and 8) of the LTC1156 must be
connected together at all times and the two ground pins (1
and 6) must be connected together at all times.
The two
supply pins should be connected to the “top” of the drain
current sense resistor/s to ensure accurate sensing.
For further applications information, see the LTC1155
Dual High Side Micropower MOSFET Driver data sheet.
