8.3.10 Drivers

The drivers for the external HDRV and LDRV MOSFETs are capable of driving a gate-to-source voltage of 5 V. The LDRV driver switches between BP and GND, while HDRV driver is referenced to SW and switches between BOOT and SW. The drivers have non-overlapping timing that is governed by an adaptive delay circuit to minimize body diode conduction in the synchronous rectifier. The drivers are capable of driving MOSFETS that are appropriate for a 15-A converter.
