MCP14A0301T-E/MS

Overview

The MCP14A0301T-E/MS is a single-channel MOSFET gate driver from Microchip Technology, housed in an MSOP-8 package. It provides a peak output current of 3 A with non-inverting configuration and includes an enable pin for power management. The device operates within a supply voltage range of 4.5 V to 18 V. Key timing characteristics include a rise time of 13 ns and a fall time of 12 ns. It supports a minimum operating temperature of -40°C.

Feature Summary

• Integrates an enable pin for active low-power control
• Delivers high-speed switching with matched rise and fall times
• Supports wide supply voltage operation up to 18 V

Applications

• Low-side MOSFET switching in DC-DC converters
• High-side gate drive applications requiring enable functionality
• Industrial motor control circuits

Procurement Notes

Verify the specific suffix 'E/MS' confirms the MSOP-8 package and industrial temperature grade (-40°C to +125°C). Ensure the ordering part number matches the required inverting/non-inverting configuration and enable pin presence. Cross-reference the manufacturer datasheet for exact mechanical dimensions and tape/reel specifications before finalizing procurement orders.

Selection Notes

Select this component when a single-channel driver with an integrated enable feature is required. It is suitable for applications needing 3 A peak current capability. Compare against the MCP14A0302T-E/MS if a non-inverting configuration is preferred instead of the standard inverting output found in this model.

Part Context

This part belongs to the MCP14A03xx series of smart gate drivers. It shares the same core performance metrics as other members like the MCP14A0302 but differs in logical configuration and pinout features such as the inclusion of an enable control line.

Replacement Considerations

The MCP14A0302T-E/MS serves as a functional alternative if a non-inverting output is acceptable. Verify package compatibility and electrical parameter alignment before substitution.
