Monolithic Power Systems (MPS) MP8699B Half-Bridge GaN MOSFET Drivers

Monolithic Power Systems (MPS) MP8699B Half-Bridge GaN MOSFET Drivers are designed to drive enhancement-mode gallium nitride (GaN) MOSFETs and N-channel MOSFETs with low gate voltages in half-bridge or synchronous applications. These devices have independent high-side (HS) and low-side (LS) pulse-width modulation (PWM) inputs.

The MP8699B employs MPS’s proprietary bootstrap (BST) technique for the high-side MOSFET (HS-FET) driver voltage and can operate up to 100V. The BST charging technology prevents the HS-FET driver voltage from exceeding the supply voltage (VCC), which prevents the gate voltage (VGATE) from exceeding the enhancement-mode GaN MOSFET’s maximum gate-to-source voltage (VGS) rating.

The MP8699B has two separate gates for independent MOSFET turn-on and turn-off speed control by adding impedance to the gate loop. The MP8699B is available in a WLCSP-12L (2mm x 2mm) package.
