The TC4428AEPA is an IC (Integrated Circuit) component designed for driving MOSFETs or power MOSFETs in various high-speed switching applications. Manufactured by Microchip Technology, this device provides a host of key features that make it ideal for driving high-power loads efficiently and reliably.
One of the noteworthy features of the TC4428AEPA is its high peak output current capability. It can source or sink up to 1.5A continuous current, making it capable of driving power MOSFETs with low RDS(on) (drain-source on-resistance) in applications that require fast switching speed and high-frequency pulse generation.
This IC incorporates a Schmitt-triggered input, which helps ensure a clean and noise-immune input signal. It allows for a wide input voltage range of 4.5V to 18V, facilitating compatibility with various control signals from microcontrollers, PWM (Pulse Width Modulation) controllers, and other digital circuitry.
The TC4428AEPA is designed for ease of use and offers a simple two-pin input interface. By applying a TTL-compatible control signal to its input, users can control the connected MOSFET reliably. The IC also exhibits fast rise and fall times, up to a frequency range of several hundred kilohertz, enabling efficient power switching
