7.3.8 HO Output

The LM25118 contains a high-side, high-current gate driver and associated high voltage level shift. This gate driver circuit works in conjunction with an internal diode and an external bootstrap capacitor. A 0.1-µF ceramic capacitor, connected with short traces between the HB pin and HS pin is recommended for most circuit configurations. The size of the bootstrap capacitor depends on the gate charge of the external FET. During the off-time of the buck switch, the HS pin voltage is approximately –0.5 V and the bootstrap capacitor is charged from VCC through the internal bootstrap diode. When operating with a high PWM duty cycle, the buck switch will be forced off each cycle for 400 ns to ensure that the bootstrap capacitor is recharged.
