MCP14E6T-E/MF

Overview

The MCP14E6T-E/MF is a low-side MOSFET gate driver manufactured by Microchip Technology. It features two independent inverting drivers with an enable function, capable of sourcing and sinking up to 2A peak output current. The device operates within a supply voltage range of 4.5V to 18V and supports propagation delays as low as 12ns rise and 15ns fall times. Designed for robust performance, it functions across an extended temperature range from -40°C to +125°C. The component is housed in an 8-lead DFN-S (6x5mm) package and is supplied in tape and reel packaging.

Feature Summary

• Dual-channel low-side configuration with individual enable control
• High peak output drive capability of 2A for fast switching
• Inverting logic interface for simplified control integration

Applications

• DC-DC converter synchronous rectification
• Motor control bridge driving
• Power supply load switches

Procurement Notes

Verify the specific suffix 'MF' corresponds to the 8-DFN-S (6x5) package and tape-and-reel quantity when ordering. Confirm RoHS compliance status through official Microchip documentation prior to procurement. Ensure the supplier provides valid traceability data for automotive or industrial qualification requirements if applicable.

Selection Notes

Select this component for applications requiring dual low-side drive with enable functionality in a compact footprint. Compare against single-channel alternatives if only one leg is needed. Verify that the 2A peak current meets the gate charge requirements of the target MOSFETs at the intended operating frequency.

Part Context

This part belongs to the MCP14E6 family of power drivers from Microchip Technology. It shares functional similarities with other members like the MCP14E6-E/P but differs in package type and pinout compatibility. The series is designed for general-purpose power management tasks requiring reliable high-current switching capabilities.

Replacement Considerations

Direct pin-compatible substitutes may include other MCP14E6 variants such as MCP14E6T-E/SN, provided the package matches. Cross-reference electrical parameters carefully before substitution.
