The TC4468EPD is an integrated circuit (IC) component designed for driving high-power, high-speed MOSFETs or IGBTs in applications such as motor controls, switching power supplies, and DC-DC converters. This IC provides a wide range of features that are crucial for efficient and reliable operation in these applications. Some of the key features of the TC4468EPD are:
1. High Current Drive Capability: The TC4468EPD can deliver a peak output current of up to 1.2A, allowing it to effectively drive high-power MOSFETs or IGBTs. This high current drive capability ensures fast switching and efficient operation.
2. Low Input Thresholds: The input thresholds of the TC4468EPD are compatible with both CMOS and TTL logic levels. This flexibility enables easy interfacing with a wide range of microcontrollers, gate drivers, and control circuits.
3. Independent Input Control: The IC features independent input control for each output. This allows for separate control and independent switching of multiple power devices connected to each output, providing greater flexibility for multi-phase or multi-leg configurations.
4. Shoot-Through Protection: The TC4468EPD includes built-in shoot-through protection, ensuring that both the high-side and low-side drivers are never simultaneously activated. This protection prevents any short-circuits or damage to the power devices due to shoot-through conditions
