MOSFET gate driver that is designed to operate in applica-
tions with V
IN
voltages up to 80V. The LTC4440A-5 can
also withstand and continue to function during 100V V
IN
transients. The powerful driver capability reduces switch-
ing losses in MOSFETs with high gate capacitances. The
LTC4440A-5’s pull-up has a peak output current of 1.1A
and its pull-down has an output impedance of 1.85Ω.
The LTC4440A-5 features supply independent TTL/CMOS
compatible input thresholds with 350mV of hysteresis.
The input logic signal is internally level-shifted to the
bootstrapped supply, which may function at up to 95V
above ground.
The LTC4440A-5 is optimized for driving (5V) logic level
FETs and contains an undervoltage lockout circuit that
disables the external MOSFET when activated.
The LTC4440A-5 is available in the thermally enhanced
8-lead MSOP package.

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 LTC4440A-5 is tested under pulsed load conditions such
that T
J
≈ T
A
. The LTC4440AI-5 is guaranteed over the –40°C to 125°C
operating junction temperature range, The LTC4440AH-5 is guaranteed
over the –40°C to 150°C operating junction temperature range and
the LTC4440AMP-5 is tested and guaranteed over the –55°C to 150°C
operating junction temperature range.
High junction temperatures degrade operating lifetimes; operating lifetime
is derated to 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 environment
factors.
Note 3:
T
J
is calculated from the ambient temperature T

and power

Continuous operation above the specified absolute operating junction
temperature may impair device reliability or permanently damage the
device.

Failure to solder the exposed pad of the MS8E package to the PC
