MAX5048BAUT#G16

Overview

The MAX5048BAUT#G16 is a single-channel low-side MOSFET gate driver manufactured by Analog Devices Inc./Maxim Integrated. It operates within a supply voltage range of 4V to 12.6V and supports N-channel MOSFETs. The device provides peak output currents of 1.3A source and 7.6A sink. Typical switching times are 82ns rise and 12.5ns fall. Logic thresholds are defined at 0.8V (VIL) and 2.4V (VIH). It is available in an SOT-23-6 surface-mount package with a standard reel quantity of 2,500 units.

Feature Summary

• Provides asymmetric drive strength optimized for fast turn-off via high sink current capability
• Supports both inverting and non-inverting logic input configurations
• Operates reliably across extended industrial temperature ranges up to 150°C junction temperature

Applications

• Low-side switching control for power MOSFETs
• DC-DC converter gate drive stages
• Motor control interface circuits

Procurement Notes

Verify the specific suffix #G16 against manufacturer documentation to confirm RoHS compliance and lead-free status. Confirm availability as this part number may be subject to discontinuation notices. Ensure the ordering code matches the required tape-and-reel packaging format for automated assembly processes.

Selection Notes

Select this component when a compact single-channel driver with high peak sink current is required. The SOT-23-6 package suits space-constrained designs. Verify that the input logic levels align with the 0.8V/2.4V thresholds. Consider thermal performance if operating near the upper temperature limits.

Part Context

This device belongs to the MAX5048B series of gate drivers designed for efficient power management applications. It integrates level shifting and protection features suitable for driving external N-channel MOSFETs in low-side configurations. The series emphasizes reliability and compact form factor for modern power electronics.

Replacement Considerations

Check for direct substitutes such as the MAX5048BAUT+T variant. Verify pin compatibility and electrical specifications before substitution. Consult official obsolescence notices for guidance on alternative components.
