that drives two N-channel MOSFETs in a synchronous
DC/DC converter with supply voltages up to 100V. This
powerful driver reduces switching losses in MOSFETs with
high gate capacitance.
The LTC4444 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 LTC4444 contains undervoltage lockout circuits that
disable the external MOSFETs when activated. Adaptive
shoot-through protection prevents both MOSFETs from
conducting simultaneously.
For a similar driver in this product family, please refer to

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 LTC4444 is tested under pulsed load conditions such that
T
J
≈ T
A
. The LTC4444E is guaranteed to meet specifications from 0°C
to 85°C junction temperature. Specifications over the –40°C to 125°C
operating junction temperature range are assured by design, charac-
terization and correlation with statistical process controls. The LTC4444I
is guaranteed over the –40°C to 125°C operating temperature range, the
LTC4444H is guaranteed over the –40°C to 150°C operating temperature
range and the LTC4444MP is tested and guaranteed over the full –55°C to
150°C operating junction temperature range. High junction temperatures
degrade operating lifetimes; operating lifetime is derated for junction
temperatures greater than 125°C. Note that the maximum ambient
temperature consistent with these specifications is determined by specific
operating conditions in conjunction with board layout, the rated package
thermal impedance and other environmental factors.
Note 3:
The junction temperature (T
J
, in °C) is calculated from the ambient
temperature (T
A
, in °C) and power dissipation (P
D
, in watts) according to
the formula:
T
J
= T
A
+ (P
D
•
θ
JA
)
where
θ
JA
(in °C/W) is the package thermal impedance.
Note 4:
Failure to solder the exposed back side of the MS8E package to the
PC board will result in a thermal resistance much higher than 40°C/W.
