TPS2818DBVR

The TPS2818DBVR is an inverting high-speed MOSFET Driver with internal regulator. It is capable of delivering peak currents of up to 2A into highly capacitive loads. High switching speed (tr and tf=14ns typical) is obtained with the use of BiCMOS outputs. Typical threshold switching voltages are 2/3 and 1/3 of VCC. The design inherently minimizes shoot-through current. A regulator is provided on TPS2816 through TPS2819 devices to allow operation with supply inputs between 14 and 40V. The regulator output can be used to power other circuits, provided power dissipation does not exceed package limitations. If the regulator is not required, VDD (the regulator input) should be connected to VCC. The TPS2816 and TPS2817 input circuits include an active pull-up circuit to eliminate the need for an external resistor when using open-collector PWM controllers. The TPS2818 is identical to the TPS2816 and TPS2817, except that the active pull-up circuit is omitted.
