The MCP14E3-E/SN, manufactured by Microchip Technology Inc., is a non-inverting, high-speed MOSFET driver designed for driving N-channel MOSFETs or IGBTs in different applications. It is specifically designed to enhance the switching speed and efficiency of power electronic systems while providing protection features.
Key Features:
1. High-Speed Operation: The MCP14E3-E/SN has a maximum propagation delay of just 35 nanoseconds, enabling rapid switching of power devices. Its fast rise and fall times further reduce power loss during switching.
2. Wide Input Voltage Range: This MOSFET driver offers a wide input voltage range of 4.5V to 18V, providing compatibility with a variety of control circuits and systems.
3. High Output Current: The MCP14E3-E/SN can source a peak output current of up to 6A and sink a current of 6A, ensuring reliable and efficient operation of power devices.
4. Undervoltage Lockout (UVLO): The UVLO helps protect the system from undervoltage conditions by preventing the driver from functioning if the VDD voltage drops below a specified threshold.
5. Low Input Threshold Voltage: With a low input threshold voltage of 0.8V, the MCP14E3-E/SN can be easily driven by various microcontrollers and logic gates, providing compatibility with different control systems
