Working Principles

The TC4425AVMF713 is a high-speed, high-current driver IC designed to efficiently drive capacitive loads such as MOSFETs and IGBTs. It operates by receiving control signals at the input pin (IN) and generating corresponding output signals at the low-side (LO) and high-side (HO) pins. The bootstrap supply voltage (VBS) is used to provide the necessary gate drive voltage for the high-side output.

When the input signal transitions, the driver quickly switches the output states, allowing the connected device to turn on or off rapidly. This fast switching capability minimizes power losses and improves overall system efficiency.
