3.1.3 High Side Driver Loop

High-side gate driver circuits are supplied by the bootstrap capacitor. Since TPS61381-Q1 is a bidirectional boost and buck converter in which both high side and low side MOSFETs can become the main switch. This is similar to low side driver circuit. Parasite inductance in high side driver loop creates extra switching noise in buck charger mode and affects the IC life span.
