GENERAL DESCRIPTION
The ADP3412 is a dual MOSFET driver optimized for driving
two N-channel MOSFETs which are the two switches in a
nonisolated synchronous buck power converter. Each of the
drivers is capable of driving a 3000 pF load with a 20 ns propagation delay and a 30 ns transition time. One of the drivers can
be bootstrapped and is designed to handle the high voltage
slew rate associated with “floating” high side gate drivers. The
ADP3412 includes overlapping drive protection (ODP) to prevent shoot-through current in the external MOSFETs.

NOTES
1
All limits at temperature extremes are guaranteed via correlation using standard Statistical Quality Control (SQC) methods.
2
Logic inputs meet typical CMOS I/O conditions for source/sink current (~1 µA).
3
AC specifications are guaranteed by characterization but not production tested.
4
For propagation delays, “tpdh” refers to the specified signal going high; “tpdl” refers to it going low.
5
Maximum propagation delay = 40 ns + (1 ns/pF C

PIN FUNCTION DESCRIPTIONS
Pin Mnemonic Function
1 BST Floating Bootstrap Supply for the Upper MOSFET. A capacitor connected between BST and SW Pins
holds this bootstrapped voltage for the high side MOSFET as it is switched. The capacitor should be
chosen between 100 nF and 1 F.
2IN TTL-level input signal that has primary control of the drive outputs.
3 DLY Low High Transition Delay. A capacitor from this pin to ground programs the propagation delay from
turn-off of the lower FET to turn-on of the upper FET. The formula for the low high transition delay
is DLY = C
4 VCC Input Supply. This pin should be bypassed to PGND with ~1 µF ceramic capacitor.
5 DRVL Synchronous Rectifier Drive. Output drive for the lower (synchronous rectifier) MOSFET.
6 PGND Power Ground. Should be closely connected to the source of the lower MOSFET.
7SW This pin is connected to the buck-switching node, close to the upper MOSFET’s source. It is the floating
return for the upper MOSFET drive signal. It is also used to monitor the switched voltage to prevent turn-
on of the lower MOSFET until the voltage is below ~1 V. Thus, according to operating conditions, the
high low transition delay is determined at this pin.
8 DRVH Buck Drive. Output drive for the upper (buck) MOSFET.
× (1 ns/pF) + 20 ns. The rise time for turn-on of the upper FET is not included in the formula.

CAUTION
ESD (electrostatic discharge) sensitive device. Electrostatic charges as high as 4000 V readily
accumulate on the human body and test equipment and can discharge without detection. Although
WARNING!
the ADP3412 features proprietary ESD protection circuitry, permanent damage may occur on
devices subjected to high energy electrostatic discharges. Therefore, proper ESD precautions are
recommended to avoid performance degradation or loss of functionality.
