The FAN3100 2A gate driver is designed to drive an Nchannel enhancement-mode MOSFET in low-side
switching applications by providing high peak current
pulses during the short switching intervals. The driver is
available with either TTL (FAN3100T) or CMOS
(FAN3100C) input thresholds. Internal circuitry provides
an under-voltage lockout function by holding the output
low until the supply voltage is within the operating
range. The FAN3100 delivers fast MOSFET switching
performance, which helps maximize efficiency in highfrequency power converter designs.

FAN3100 drivers incorporate MillerDrive™ architecture
for the final output stage. This bipolar-MOSFET
combination provides high peak current during the
Miller plateau stage of the MOSFET turn-on / turn-off
process to minimize switching loss, while providing railto-rail voltage swing and reverse current capability.
The FAN3100 also offers dual inputs that can be
configured to operate in non-inverting or inverting mode
and allow implementation of an enable function. If one
or both inputs are left unconnected, internal resistors
bias the inputs such that the output is pulled low to hold
the power MOSFET off.
The FAN3100 is available in a lead-free finish 2x2mm
6-lead Molded Leadless Package (MLP), for smallest
size with excellent thermal performance, or industrystandard 5-pin SOT23.

because the body diode is generally conducting before
the MOSFET is switched on.
Input Thresholds
The FAN3100 offers TTL or CMOS input thresholds. In
the FAN3100T, the input thresholds meet industrystandard TTL logic thresholds, independent of the VDD
voltage, and there is a hysteresis voltage of
approximately 0.4V. These levels permit the inputs to
be driven from a range of input logic signal levels for
which a voltage over 2V is considered logic high. The
driving signal for the TTL inputs should have fast rising
and falling edges with a slew rate of 6V/µs or faster, so
the rise time from 0 to 3.3V should be 550ns or less.
With reduced slew rate, circuit noise could cause the
driver input voltage to exceed the hysteresis voltage
and retrigger the driver input, causing erratic operation.
The output pin slew rate is determined by VDD voltage
and the load on the output. It is not user adjustable, but
if a slower rise or fall time at the MOSFET gate is
needed, a series resistor can be added.
In the FAN3100C, the logic input thresholds are
dependent on the VDD level and, with VDD of 12V, the
logic rising edge threshold is approximately 55% of VDD
and the input falling edge threshold is approximately
38% of VDD. The CMOS input configuration offers a
hysteresis voltage of approximately 17% of VDD. The
CMOS inputs can be used with relatively slow edges
(approaching DC) if good decoupling and bypass
techniques are incorporated in the system design to
prevent noise from violating the input voltage hysteresis
window. This allows setting precise timing intervals by
fitting an R-C circuit between the controlling signal and
the IN pin of the driver. The slow rising edge at the IN
pin of the driver introduces a delay between the
controlling signal and the OUT pin of the driver.
Figure 42. MillerDrive™ Output Architecture
Under-Voltage Lockout
The FAN3100 start-up logic is optimized to drive ground
referenced N-channel MOSFETs with a under-voltage
lockout (UVLO) function to ensure that the IC starts up
in an orderly fashion. When VDD is rising, yet below the
3.9V operational level, this circuit holds the output low,
regardless of the status of the input pins. After the part
is active, the supply voltage must drop 0.2V before the
part shuts down. This hysteresis helps prevent chatter
when low VDD supply voltages have noise from the
power switching. This configuration is not suitable for
driving high-side P-channel MOSFETs because the low
output voltage of the driver would turn the P-channel
MOSFET on with VDD below 3.9V.
Static Supply Current
In the IDD (static) typical performance graphs (Figure 9 Figure 10 and Figure 15 - Figure 16), the curve is
produced with all inputs floating (OUT is low) and
indicates the lowest static IDD current for the tested
configuration. For other states, additional current flows
through the 100kΩ resistors on the inputs and outputs
shown in the block diagrams (see Figure 5 - Figure 6).
In these cases, the actual static IDD current is the value
obtained from the curves plus this additional current.
VDD Bypass Capacitor Guidelines
To enable this IC to turn a power device on quickly, a
local, high-frequency, bypass capacitor CBYP with low
ESR and ESL should be connected between the VDD
and GND pins with minimal trace length. This capacitor
is in addition to bulk electrolytic capacitance of 10µF to
47µF often found on driver and controller bias circuits.
MillerDrive™ Gate Drive Technology
FAN3100 drivers incorporate the MillerDrive™
architecture shown in Figure 42 for the output stage, a
combination of bipolar and MOS devices capable of
providing large currents over a wide range of supply
voltage and temperature variations. The bipolar devices
carry the bulk of the current as OUT swings between
1/3 to 2/3 VDD and the MOS devices pull the output to
the high or low rail.
A typical criterion for choosing the value of CBYP is to
keep the ripple voltage on the VDD supply ≤5%. Often
this is achieved with a value ≥ 20 times the equivalent
load capacitance CEQV, defined here as Qgate/VDD.
Ceramic capacitors of 0.1µF to 1µF or larger are
common choices, as are dielectrics, such as X5R and
X7R, which have good temperature characteristics and
high pulse current capability.
The purpose of the MillerDrive™ architecture is to
speed up switching by providing the highest current
during the Miller plateau region when the gate-drain
capacitance of the MOSFET is being charged or
discharged as part of the turn-on / turn-off process.
For applications that have zero voltage switching during
the MOSFET turn-on or turn-off interval, the driver
supplies high peak current for fast switching even
though the Miller plateau is not present. This situation
often occurs in synchronous rectifier applications

FAN3100 • Rev. 1.0.1
FAN3100 — Single 2A High-Speed, Low-Side Gate Driver
Applications Information
If circuit noise affects normal operation, the value of
CBYP may be increased to 50-100 times the CEQV, or
CBYP may be split into two capacitors. One should be a
larger value, based on equivalent load capacitance, and
the other a smaller value, such as 1-10nF, mounted
closest to the VDD and GND pins to carry the higherfrequency components of the current pulses.

The FAN3100 incorporates fast reacting input circuits,
short propagation delays, and powerful output stages
capable of delivering current peaks over 2A to facilitate
voltage transition times from under 10ns to over 100ns.
The following layout and connection guidelines are
strongly recommended:
ƒ
Keep high-current output and power ground paths
separate from logic input signals and signal ground
paths. This is especially critical when dealing with
TTL-level logic thresholds.
ƒ
Keep the driver as close to the load as possible to
minimize the length of high-current traces. This
reduces the series inductance to improve highspeed switching, while reducing the loop area that
can radiate EMI to the driver inputs and other
surrounding circuitry.
ƒ
Figure 44. Current Path for MOSFET Turn-Off
Truth Table of Logic Operation
The FAN3100 truth table indicates the operational
states using the dual-input configuration. In a noninverting driver configuration, the IN- pin should be a
logic low signal. If the IN- pin is connected to logic high,
a disable function is realized, and the driver output
remains low regardless of the state of the IN+ pin.
The FAN3100 is available in two packages with
slightly different pinouts, offering similar
performance. In the 6-pin MLP package, Pin 2 is
internally connected to the input analog ground and
should be connected to power ground, Pin 5,
through a short direct path underneath the IC. In
the 5-pin SOT23, the internal analog and power
ground connections are made through separate,
individual bond wires to Pin 2, which should be
used as the common ground point for power and
control signals.
ƒ
Many high-speed power circuits can be susceptible
to noise injected from their own output or other
external sources, possibly causing output retriggering. These effects can be especially obvious
if the circuit is tested in breadboard or non-optimal
circuit layouts with long input, enable, or output
leads. For best results, make connections to all
pins as short and direct as possible.
ƒ
The turn-on and turn-off current paths should be
minimized as discussed in the following sections.

In the non-inverting driver configuration in Figure 45,
the IN- pin is tied to ground and the input signal (PWM)
is applied to IN+ pin. The IN- pin can be connected to
logic high to disable the driver and the output remains
low, regardless of the state of the IN+ pin.
Figure 43 shows the pulsed gate drive current path
when the gate driver is supplying gate charge to turn
the MOSFET on. The current is supplied from the local
bypass capacitor, CBYP, and flows through the driver to
the MOSFET gate and to ground. To reach the high
peak currents possible, the resistance and inductance
in the path should be minimized. The localized CBYP
acts to contain the high peak current pulses within this
driver-MOSFET circuit, preventing them from disturbing
the sensitive analog circuitry in the PWM controller.
Figure 45. Dual-Input Driver Enabled,
Non-Inverting Configuration
In the inverting driver application shown in Figure 46, the
IN+ pin is tied high. Pulling the IN+ pin to GND forces the
output low, regardless of the state of the IN- pin.

Figure 44 shows the current path when the gate driver
turns the MOSFET off. Ideally, the driver shunts the
current directly to the source of the MOSFET in a small
circuit loop. For fast turn-off times, the resistance and
inductance in this path should be minimized.

At power up, the driver output remains low until the VDD
voltage reaches the turn-on threshold. The magnitude
of the OUT pulses rises with VDD until steady-state VDD
is reached. The non-inverting operation illustrated in
Figure 47 shows that the output remains low until the
UVLO threshold is reached, then the output is in-phase
with the input.
PGATE = QG • VGS • FSW

Dynamic Pre-drive / Shoot-through Current: A power
loss resulting from internal current consumption
under dynamic operating conditions, including pin
pull-up / pull-down resistors, can be obtained using
the IDD (no-Load) vs. Frequency graphs in Typical
Performance Characteristics to determine the
current IDYNAMIC drawn from VDD under actual
operating conditions:
PDYNAMIC = IDYNAMIC • VDD
(3)
Once the power dissipated in the driver is determined,
the driver junction rise with respect to circuit board can
be evaluated using the following thermal equation,
assuming ψ JB was determined for a similar thermal
design (heat sinking and air flow):
TJ
= PTOTAL • ψ JB + TB
(4)
where:
TJ
= driver junction temperature
ψ JB = (psi) thermal characterization parameter relating
temperature rise to total power dissipation
TB = board temperature in location defined in the
Thermal Characteristics table.
Figure 47. Non-Inverting Start-Up Waveforms
For the inverting configuration of Figure 46, start-up
waveforms are shown in Figure 48. With IN+ tied to
VDD and the input signal applied to IN–, the OUT
pulses are inverted with respect to the input. At power
up, the inverted output remains low until the VDD voltage
reaches the turn-on threshold, then it follows the input
with inverted phase.
In a typical forward converter application with 48V input,
as shown in Figure 49, the FDS2672 would be a
potential MOSFET selection. The typical gate charge
would be 32nC with VGS = VDD = 10V. Using a TTL input
driver at a switching frequency of 500kHz, the total
power dissipation can be calculated as:
PGATE = 32nC • 10V • 500kHz = 0.160W
PDYNAMIC = 8mA • 10V = 0.080W
PTOTAL = 0.24W
(5)

(7)
The 5-pin SOT23 has a junction-to-lead thermal
characterization parameter ψ JB = 51°C/W.
In a system application, the localized temperature
around the device is a function of the layout and
construction of the PCB along with airflow across the
surfaces. To ensure reliable operation, the maximum
junction temperature of the device must be prevented
from exceeding the maximum rating of 150°C; with 80%
derating, TJ would be limited to 120°C. Rearranging
Equation 4 determines the board temperature required
to maintain the junction temperature below 120°C:
Figure 48. Inverting Start-Up Waveforms
Thermal Guidelines
Gate drivers used to switch MOSFETs and IGBTs at
high frequencies can dissipate significant amounts of
power. It is important to determine the driver power
dissipation and the resulting junction temperature in the
application to ensure that the part is operating within
acceptable temperature limits.
TB,MAX = TJ - PTOTAL • ψ JB

TB,MAX = 120°C – 0.24W • 51°C/W = 108°C

For comparison purposes, replace the 5-pin SOT23
used in the previous example with the 6-pin MLP
package with ψ JB = 2.8°C/W. The 6-pin MLP package
can operate at a PCB temperature of 119°C, while
maintaining the junction temperature below 120°C. This
illustrates that the physically smaller MLP package with
thermal pad offers a more conductive path to remove
the heat from the driver. Consider the tradeoffs between
reducing overall circuit size with junction temperature
reduction for increased reliability.
The total power dissipation in a gate driver is the sum of
two components; PGATE and PDYNAMIC:
PTOTAL = PGATE + PDYNAMIC
(1)
Gate Driving Loss: The most significant power loss
results from supplying gate current (charge per unit
time) to switch the load MOSFET on and off at the
switching frequency. The power dissipation that
results from driving a MOSFET at a specified gate© 2007 Fairchild Semiconductor Corporation
