High Speed, High Voltage,
High Side Gate Driver
The LT C
®
4440-5 is a high frequency high side N-channel
MOSFET gate driver that is designed to operate in appli-
cations with VIN voltages up to 60V. The LTC4440-5 can
also withstand and continue to function during 80V VIN
transients. The powerful driver capability reduces switch-
ing losses in MOSFETs with high gate capacitances. The
L
TC4440-5’s pull-up has a peak output current of 1.1A and
its pull-down has an output impedance of 1.85Ω.
The LTC4440-5 features supply independent TTL/CMOS
compatible input thresholds with 350mV of hysteresis.
The input logic signal is internally level-shifted to the
bootstrapped supply, which may function at up to 95V
above ground.
The LTC4440-5 is optimized for driving (5V) logic level
FETs and contains an undervoltage lockout circuit that
disables the external MOSFET when activated.
The LTC4440-5 is available in the low profile (1mm)
SOT-23 or a thermally enhanced 8-lead MSOP package.

Figure 1. Capacitance Seen by TG During Switching
Overview
The LTC4440-5 receives a ground-referenced, low voltage
digital input signal to drive a high side N-channel power
MOSFET whose drain can float up to 80V above ground,
eliminating the need for a transformer between the low
voltage control signal and the high side gate driver. The
LTC4440-5 normally operates in applications with input
supply voltages (VIN) up to 60V, but is able to withstand
and continue to function during 80V, 100ms transients
on the input supply.
The powerful output driver of the LTC4440-5 reduces the
switching losses of the power MOSFET, which increase
with transition time. The LTC4440-5 is capable of driv-
ing a 1nF load with 10ns rise and 7ns fall times using a
bootstrapped supply voltage VBOOST–TS of 6V.
Input Stage
The LTC4440-5 employs TTL/CMOS compatible input logic
level or thresholds that allow a low voltage digital signal to
drive standard threshold power MOSFETs. The LTC4440-5
contains an internal voltage regulator that biases the input
buffer, allowing the input thresholds (VIH = 1.6V, VIL =
1.25V) to be relatively independent of variations in VCC.
The 350mV hysteresis between VIH and VIL eliminates
false triggering due to noise during switching transitions.
However, care should be taken to keep this pin from any
noise pickup, especially in high frequency, high voltage
applications. The LTC4440-5 input buffer has a high input
impedance and draws negligible input current, simplifying
the drive circuitry required for the input.
Output Stage
A simplified version of the LTC4440-5’s output stage is
shown in Figure 1. The pull-down device is an N-channel
MOSFET (N1) and the pull-up device is an NPN bipolar
junction transistor (Q1). The output swings from the lower
rail (TS) to within an NPN VBE (~0.7V) of the positive rail
(BOOST). This large voltage swing is important in driv-
ing external power MOSFETs, whose RDS(ON) is inversely
proportional to its gate overdrive voltage (VGS – VTH).
The LTC4440-5’s peak pull-up (Q1) current is 1.1A while
the pull-down (N1) resistance is 1.85Ω, with a BOOST-
TS supply of 6V. The low impedance of N1 is required to
discharge the power MOSFETs gate capacitance during
high-to-low signal transitions. When the power MOSFETs
gate is pulled low (gate shorted to source through N1) by
the LTC4440-5, its source (TS) is pulled low by its load
(e.g., an inductor or resistor). The slew rate of the source/
gate voltage causes current to flow back to the MOSFETs
gate through the gate-to-drain capacitance (CGD). If the
MOSFET driver does not have sufficient sink current ca-
pability (low output impedance), the current through the
power MOSFETs CGD can momentarily pull the gate high,
turning the MOSFET back on.
A similar scenario exists when the LTC4440-5 is used
to drive a low side MOSFET. When the low side power
MOSFETs gate is pulled low by the LTC4440-5, its drain
voltage is pulled high by its load (e.g., inductor or resis-
tor). The slew rate of the drain voltage causes current to
flow back to the MOSFETs gate through its gate-to-drain
capacitance. If the MOSFET driver does not have sufficient
sink current capability (low output impedance), the current
through the power MOSFETs CGD can momentarily pull
the gate high, turning the MOSFET back on.
Rise/Fall Time
Since the power MOSFET generally accounts for the ma-
jority of the power loss in a converter, it is important to
quickly turn it on or off, thereby minimizing the transition
time in its linear region. The LTC4440-5 can drive a 1nF
load with a 10ns rise time and 7ns fall time.
The LTC4440-5’s rise and fall times are determined by the
peak current capabilities of Q1 and N1. The predriver that
drives Q1 and N1 uses a nonoverlapping transition scheme
to minimize cross-conduction currents. N1 is fully turned
off before Q1 is turned on and vice versa.

Power Dissipation
To ensure proper operation and long-term reliability,
the LTC4440-5 must not operate beyond its maximum
temperature rating. Package junction temperature can
be calculated by:
TJ = TA + PD (θJA)
where:
TJ = Junction Temperature
TA = Ambient Temperature
PD = Power Dissipation
θJA = Junction-to-Ambient Thermal Resistance
Power dissipation consists of standby and switching
power losses:
PD = PSTDBY + PAC
where:
PSTDBY = Standby Power Losses
PAC = AC Switching Losses
The LTC4440-5 consumes very little current during standby.
The DC power loss at VCC = 6V and VBOOST–TS = 6V is only
(200µA)(6V) = 1.2mW with INP = 0V.
AC switching losses are made up of the output capacitive
load losses and the transition state losses. The capacitive
load losses are primarily due to the large AC currents
needed to charge and discharge the load capacitance dur-
ing switching. Load losses for the output driver driving a
pure capacitive load COUT would be:
Load Capacitive Power = (COUT)(f)(VBOOST–TS)2
The power MOSFETs gate capacitance seen by the driver
output varies with its VGS voltage level during switching.
A power MOSFETs capacitive load power dissipation can
be calculated using its gate charge, QG. The QG value
corresponding to the MOSFETs VGS value (VCC in this
case) can be readily obtained from the manufacturers
QG vs VGS curves:
Load Capacitive Power (MOS) = (VBOOST–TS)(QG)(f)
Transition state power losses are due to both AC currents
required to charge and discharge the drivers internal
nodal capacitances and cross-conduction currents in the
internal gates.
Undervoltage Lockout (UVLO)
The LTC4440-5 contains an undervoltage lockout detec-
tor that monitors VCC. When VCC falls below 3.04V, the
internal buffer is disabled and the output pin TG is pulled
down to TS.
Bypassing and Grounding
The LTC4440-5 requires proper bypassing on the VCC
and VBOOST–TS supplies due to its high speed switching
(nanoseconds) and large AC currents (Amperes). Careless
component placement and PCB trace routing may cause
excessive ringing and under/overshoot.
To obtain the optimum performance from the LTC4440-5:
A. Mount the bypass capacitors as close as possible
between the VCC and GND pins and the BOOST and
TS pins. The leads should be shortened as much as
possible to reduce lead inductance.
B. Use a low inductance, low impedance ground plane
to reduce any ground drop and stray capacitance.
Remember that the LTC4440-5 switches >2A peak
currents and any significant ground drop will degrade
signal integrity.
C. Plan the power/ground routing carefully. Know where
the large load switching current is coming from and
going to. Maintain separate ground return paths for
the input pin and the output power stage.
D. Keep the copper trace between the driver output pin
and the load short and wide.
E. When using the MS8E package, be sure to solder the
exposed pad on the back side of the LTC4440-5 package
to the board. Correctly soldered to a 2500mm2 double-
sided 1oz copper board, the LTC4440-5 has a thermal
resistance of approximately 40°C/W. Failure to make
good thermal contact between the exposed back side
and the copper board will result in thermal resistances
far greater than 40°C/W.
