LM5111 Dual 5-A Compound Gate Driver

The LM5111 Dual Gate Driver replaces industry standard gate drivers with improved peak output current and efficiency. Each compound output driver stage includes MOS and bipolar transistors operating in parallel that together sink more than 5-A peak from capacitive loads. Combining the unique characteristics of MOS and bipolar devices reduces drive current va.
