MAX15070BEUT+

Overview

The MAX15070BEUT+ is a low-side gate driver IC manufactured by Analog Devices Inc. (formerly Maxim Integrated). It features a single-channel configuration designed for driving N-channel MOSFETs. The device operates with a supply voltage range of 6V to 14V and supports logic input levels with VIL at 2V and VIH at 4.25V. It provides a peak output current capability of 3A source and 7A sink. The typical rise and fall times are 36ns and 17ns, respectively. The component is housed in a SOT-23-6 surface-mount package and functions with both inverting and non-inverting inputs.

Feature Summary

• Single-channel low-side gate driver architecture optimized for N-channel MOSFET control
• Dual input functionality supporting both inverting and non-inverting signal configurations
• Robust thermal performance rated for junction temperatures up to 150°C
• High peak drive current capability with 7A sink and 3A source output

Applications

• DC-DC converter synchronous rectification
• Motor control bridge drivers
• Power supply switching regulation

Procurement Notes

Verify the manufacturer part number MAX15070BEUT+ against official Analog Devices documentation to ensure authenticity. Confirm the SOT-23-6 package type and lead marking match the datasheet specifications. Check for obsolescence status as some variants may be discontinued. Ensure the supplier provides traceability documents consistent with ADI authorized distribution channels.

Selection Notes

Select this component when a compact low-side driver is required for N-channel MOSFETs in space-constrained designs. The SOT-23-6 package offers a small footprint suitable for high-density PCB layouts. Consider the 6V to 14V supply range compatibility with standard logic levels. Evaluate the 3A/7A current ratings against the target MOSFET gate charge requirements to ensure adequate switching speed.

Part Context

This part belongs to the Maxim Integrated gate driver family, now under Analog Devices. It is categorized under Power Management ICs (PMIC) specifically as a gate driver. The BEUT suffix indicates the specific package variant and temperature grade within the MAX15070 series. It serves as a discrete solution for controlling power switches in various electronic systems.

Replacement Considerations

The MAX15070BAUT+T is a documented substitute variant within the same product line. Verify pinout compatibility and electrical parameter alignment before substitution. Note that availability status may differ between the BEUT and BAUT designations.
