MAX17605ASA+T

Overview

The MAX17605ASA+T is a dual low-side gate driver IC manufactured by Analog Devices Inc./Maxim Integrated. It is designed to drive external N-channel MOSFETs and IGBTs with high peak output current capabilities. The device operates within a supply voltage range of 4V to 14V and features independent channels for flexible control applications. Packaged in an 8-SOIC surface-mount package, it supports logic input levels compatible with standard digital interfaces.

Feature Summary

• Dual independent channel configuration for driving two external power switches
• Capable of sourcing and sinking high peak currents to minimize switching losses
• Integrated protection features to ensure robust operation under fault conditions

Applications

• Motor control systems requiring precise low-side switching
• DC-DC converter topologies utilizing external MOSFETs
• Industrial power supplies and inverters

Procurement Notes

Verify the specific suffix '+T' indicates tape-and-reel packaging when ordering. Confirm the manufacturer designation as Analog Devices Inc. or Maxim Integrated to ensure authenticity. Check RoHS compliance status for environmental regulations. Ensure the 8-SOIC package dimensions match your PCB footprint requirements before finalizing procurement.

Selection Notes

Select this component when dual low-side driving is required with high current capability. Compare against the MAX17600 series if different pinouts or specific logic thresholds are needed. Consider the SOIC package size constraints relative to available board space. Verify that the 4V to 14V supply range aligns with your system's available voltage rails.

Part Context

This part belongs to the MAX1760x series of high-speed dual MOSFET drivers. It shares functional similarities with other members like the MAX17600 and MAX17605 but differs in specific electrical characteristics and packaging options. The series is designed for efficient power management in compact industrial and consumer applications.

Replacement Considerations

Direct substitutes include MAX17605ASA+ (non-tape version) and MAX17600AUA+T. Verify pin compatibility and electrical specifications before substitution. The MAX17600 series may offer alternative package types such as uMAX.
