Dual Bootstrapped, 12 V MOSFET
Driver with Output Disable
ADP3418
FEATURES
All-in-one synchronous buck driver
Bootstrapped high-side drive
1 PWM signal generates both drives
Anticross-conduction protection circuitry
Output disable control turns off both MOSFETs to float the
output per Intel® VR 10 and AMD Opteron™ specifications
GENERAL DESCRIPTION
The ADP3418 is a dual, high voltage MOSFET driver optimized
for driving two N-channel MOSFETs, the two switches in a
nonisolated, synchronous, buck power converter. Each of the
drivers is capable of driving a 3000 pF load with a 30 ns
transition time. One of the drivers can be bootstrapped and is
designed to handle the high voltage slew rate associated with
floating high-side gate drivers. The ADP3418 includes
overlapping drive protection to prevent shoot-through current
in the external MOSFETs. The OD pin shuts off both the high-
side and the low-side MOSFETs to prevent rapid output
capacitor discharge during system shutdowns.
The ADP3418 is specified over the commercial temperature
range of 0°C to 85°C and is available in an 8-lead SOIC package.
APPLICATIONS
Multiphase desktop CPU supplies
Single-supply synchronous buck converters

All limits at temperature extremes are guaranteed via correlation using standard statistical quality control (SQC).
For propagation delays, t

Stresses above those listed under Absolute Maximum Ratings
may cause permanent damage to the device. This is a stress
rating only; functional operation of the device at these or any
other conditions above those indicated in the operational
section of this specification is not implied. Exposure to absolute
maximum rating conditions for extended periods may affect
device reliability.
Absolute maximum ratings apply individually only, not in
combination. Unless otherwise specified, all voltages are
referenced to PGND.
ESD CAUTION
ESD (electrostatic discharge) sensitive device. Electrostatic charges as high as 4000 V readily accumulate on
the human body and test equipment and can discharge without detection. Although this product features
proprietary ESD protection circuitry, permanent damage may occur on devices subjected to high energy
electrostatic discharges. Therefore, proper ESD precautions are recommended to avoid performance
degradation or loss of functionality.

Description
Upper MOSFET Floating Bootstrap Supply. A capacitor connected between the BST and SW pins holds this
bootstrapped voltage for the high-side MOSFET as it is switched. The capacitor should be between 100 nF and 1 µF.
Logic Level Input. This pin has primary control of the drive outputs.
Output Disable. When low, this pin disables normal operation, forcing DRVH and DRVL low.
Input Supply. This pin should be bypassed to PGND with a ~1 µF ceramic capacitor.
Synchronous Rectifier Drive. Output drive for the lower (synchronous rectifier) MOSFET.
Power Ground. Should be closely connected to the source of the lower MOSFET.
This pin is connected to the buck switching node, close to the upper MOSFET’s source. It is the floating return
for the upper MOSFET drive signal.
Buck Drive. Output drive for the upper (buck) MOSFET.
