Push-Pull FET Driver with Integrated Oscillator
and Clock Output
Features
The MAX5075 is a +4.5V to +15V push-pull, current-fed
topology driver subsystem with an integrated oscillator
for use in telecom module power supplies. The device
drives two MOSFETs connected to a center-tapped
transformer primary providing secondary-side, isolated,
negative or positive voltages. This device features a programmable, accurate, integrated oscillator with a synchronizing clock output that synchronizes an external
PWM regulator. A single external resistor programs the
internal oscillator frequency from 50kHz to 1.5MHz.
The MAX5075 incorporates a dual MOSFET driver with
±3A peak drive currents and 50% duty cycle. The
MOSFET driver generates complementary signals to
drive external ground-referenced n-channel MOSFETs.
The MAX5075 is available with a clock output frequency
to MOSFET driver frequency ratio of 1x, 2x, and 4x. The
MAX5075 is available in a thermally enhanced 8-pin
µMAX ® package and is specified over the -40°C to
+125°C operating temperature range.

MAX5075
Push-Pull FET Driver with Integrated Oscillator
and Clock Output
Detailed Description
The MAX5075 is a +4.5V to +15V push-pull, current-fed
topology driver subsystem with an integrated oscillator
for use in 48V module power supplies.
The MAX5075 features a programmable, accurate integrated oscillator with a synchronizing clock output that
can be used to synchronize an external PWM stage. A
single external resistor programs the internal oscillator
frequency from 50kHz to 1.5MHz.
The MAX5075 incorporates a dual MOSFET driver with
±3A peak drive currents and a 50% duty cycle. The
MOSFET driver generates complementary signals to
drive external ground-referenced n-channel MOSFETs.
The MAX5075 is available with a clock output frequency
to MOSFET driver frequency ratios of 1x , 2x, and 4x.

Internal Oscillator
An external resistor at RT programs the MAX5075
internal oscillator frequency from 50kHz to 1.5MHz. The
MAX5075A/B NDRV1 and NDRV2 switching frequencies are one-half the programmed oscillator frequency
with a nominal 50% duty cycle. The MAX5075C NDRV1
and NDRV2 switching frequencies are one-fourth the
oscillator frequency.

where fOSC is the oscillator frequency and RRT is a
resistor connected from RT to DGND in ohms.
Place a series combination of a 4.7kΩ resistor and a
1nF capacitor from RT to DGND for stability and to filter
out noise.
Synchronizing Clock Output
The MAX5075 provides a buffered clock output that can
be used to synchronize the oscillator input of a PWM controller. CLK is powered from an internal 5V regulator and
sources/sinks up to 10mA. The MAX5075 has internal
CLK output frequency to NDRV1 and NDRV2 switching
frequency ratios set to 1x, 2x, or 4x (Table 1).
The MAX5075A has a CLK frequency to NDRV_ frequency ratio set to 1x. The MAX5075B has a CLK frequency to
NDRV_ frequency ratio set to 2x and the MAX5075C has
a CLK frequency to NDRV_ frequency ratio set to 4x.
There is a typical 30ns delay from CLK to NDRV_ output.

Applications Information
Supply Bypassing
Pay careful attention to bypassing and grounding the
MAX5075. Peak supply and output currents may exceed
3A when driving large MOSFETs. Ground shifts due to
insufficient device grounding may also disturb other circuits sharing the same ground-return path. Any series
inductance in the VCC, NDRV1, NDRV2, and/or GND
paths can cause noise due to the very high di/dt when
switching the MAX5075 with any capacitive load. Place
one or more 0.1µF ceramic capacitors in parallel as close
to the device as possible to bypass VCC to PGND. Use a
ground plane to minimize ground-return resistance and
inductance. Place the external MOSFETs as close as
possible to the MAX5075 to further minimize board inductance and AC path impedance.
_______________________________________________________________________________________
Push-Pull FET Driver with Integrated Oscillator
and Clock Output
•
Two AC current loops form between the device and
the gate of the driven MOSFETs. The MOSFETs
look like a large capacitance from gate to source
when the gate pulls low. The current loop is from
the MOSFET gate to NDRV1 and NDRV2 of the
MAX5075, to PGND, and to the source of the
MOSFET. When the gate of the MOSFET pulls high,
the current is from the VCC terminal of the decoupling capacitor, to VCC of the MAX5075, to NDRV1
and NDRV2, and to the MOSFET gate and source.
Both charging current and discharging current loops
are important. Minimize the physical distance and
the impedance in these AC current paths.
•
Keep the device as close to the MOSFET as possible.
PDISS = VCC x ICCSW
For capacitive loads, use the following equation to estimate the power dissipation:
PLOAD = 2 x CLOAD x VCC2 x fNDRV_
where C LOAD is the capacitive load at NDRV1 and
NDRV2, VCC is the supply voltage, and fNDRV_ is the
MAX5075 NDRV_ switching frequency.
Pin Configuration
Calculate the total power dissipation (PT) as follows:
PT = PDISS + PLOAD
Layout Recommendations
The MAX5075 sources and sinks large currents that can
create very fast rise and fall edges at the gate of the
switching MOSFETs. The high di/dt can cause unacceptable ringing if the trace lengths and impedances are not
well controlled. Use the following PC board layout guidelines when designing with the MAX5075:
•
Place one or more 0.1µF decoupling ceramic
capacitors from V CC to PGND as close to the
device as possible. Connect VCC and all ground
pins to large copper areas. Place one bulk capacitor of 10µF on the PC board with a low-impedance
path to the VCC input and PGND of the MAX5075.

Power Dissipation
The power dissipation of the MAX5075 is a function of
the sum of the quiescent current and the output current
(either capacitive or resistive load). Maintain the sum of
the currents so the maximum power dissipation limit is
not exceeded. The power dissipation (PDISS) due to the
quiescent switching supply current (ICCSW) can be calculated as:
