MIC4422CM

Overview

The MIC4422CM is a single-channel, low-side MOSFET gate driver manufactured by Microchip Technology. It operates within a supply voltage range of 4.5 V to 18 V and delivers a peak output current of 9 A. The device features non-inverting logic configuration with rise and fall times of 25 ns each. It supports CMOS and TTL input logic levels and functions within an operating temperature range of 0°C to +70°C. Packaged in an 8-SOIC surface-mount format, it includes internal shoot-through protection and is designed for high-speed switching applications.

Feature Summary

• Delivers high peak output current capability for rapid MOSFET switching
• Features internal shoot-through protection to prevent bridge arm cross-conduction
• Supports direct interface with standard CMOS and TTL logic inputs

Applications

• High-speed power switching circuits
• Motor control systems
• DC-DC converter topologies

Procurement Notes

Verify the specific suffix 'CM' confirms the commercial temperature grade (0°C to +70°C) and SOIC-8 package variant. Ensure compatibility with the required operating environment and mounting style. Confirm RoHS compliance status through official manufacturer documentation prior to integration.

Selection Notes

Select this component when a single low-side driver with 9 A peak current is required. It is suitable for designs needing non-inverting output and fast switching speeds. Consider thermal management requirements based on the SOIC-8 package power dissipation limits and the specific load conditions of the target application.

Part Context

This part belongs to the MIC4422 series of high-speed MOSFET drivers. It shares core electrical specifications with variants like MIC4422YM but differs in packaging and temperature rating. The series is designed for efficient power management and motor drive applications requiring reliable gate control.

Replacement Considerations

Equivalent parts include MIC4422YM for identical electrical performance in a different package. Verify pinout compatibility and thermal characteristics before substitution.
