ADP3418JR-REEL

Gate Driver Overview

The ADP3418JR-REEL is a dual high-voltage MOSFET driver designed for synchronous buck power converters. It integrates bootstrapped high-side drive and anticross-conduction protection to prevent shoot-through currents. The device accepts a single PWM signal to generate both high-side and low-side gate drives. An output disable control allows the floating of outputs during system shutdowns, complying with Intel VRM 10 specifications.

Gate Driver Feature Summary

• Integrates dual high-voltage MOSFET drivers optimized for nonisolated synchronous buck applications
• Features overlapping drive protection circuitry to eliminate shoot-through current in external switches
• Includes an output disable pin that shuts off both high-side and low-side MOSFETs to float the output

Gate Driver Applications

• Multiphase desktop CPU supplies
• Single-supply synchronous buck converters

Gate Driver Procurement Notes

Verify the specific suffix 'JR' against the manufacturer's official datasheet to confirm package type and temperature range. Confirm availability status as distribution channels may list limited stock or obsolete statuses. Ensure the reel packaging matches production requirements.

Gate Driver Selection Notes

Select this component for designs requiring a compact solution for driving two N-channel MOSFETs in a synchronous buck topology. The integrated bootstrap and anti-cross-conduction features reduce external component count. Verify input voltage levels and load capacitance requirements against the driver's transition time specifications.

Gate Driver Part Context
