FAN7361M

Gate Driver Overview

The FAN7361M is a high-side gate driver manufactured by onsemi, designed for driving N-channel MOSFETs and IGBTs in half-bridge configurations. It operates with a supply voltage range of 10 V to 20 V and delivers an output current of 500 mA. The device features a floating channel capable of bootstrapping operation up to +600 V. Key timing parameters include a rise time of 70 ns, a fall time of 30 ns, and maximum delay times of 170 ns for both turn-on and turn-off. It is housed in an SOP-8 package and supports surface mount installation.

Gate Driver Feature Summary

• Floating channel design enables bootstrap operation for high-side switching applications up to 600 V
• Integrated high-current output stage provides 500 mA drive capability for fast switching
• Optimized propagation delays ensure precise control in half-bridge topologies

Gate Driver Applications

• Half-bridge power conversion circuits
• High-side switching for MOSFET and IGBT loads
• Industrial motor drive systems

Gate Driver Procurement Notes

Verify component authenticity through authorized distributors or direct manufacturer channels. Confirm RoHS compliance status and check for end-of-life notices, as availability may be limited. Ensure the SOP-8 package matches your PCB footprint requirements before ordering.

Gate Driver Selection Notes

Select this component when a single high-side driver with moderate current capability is required. The 500 mA output suits standard power MOSFETs. Verify that the input logic levels are compatible with your control circuitry and that the operating temperature range meets environmental conditions.

Gate Driver Part Context

This part belongs to the FAN7361 series of high-side gate drivers from onsemi. It is functionally similar to the FAN7361MX variant, differing primarily in packaging or reel specifications. The series is intended for robust industrial and consumer power applications requiring reliable high-side switching.

Gate Driver Replacement Considerations

The FAN7361MX is a direct functional equivalent within the same product family. Verify pinout compatibility and electrical specifications before substitution.
