General Description
The TC4423/TC4424/TC4425 devices are a family of
3A, dual-output buffers/MOSFET drivers. Pin compati-
ble with the TC1426/27/28, TC4426/27/28 and
TC4426A/27A/28A dual 1.5A driver families, the
TC4423 /24/25 family ha s an increas ed latch-up curre nt
rating of 1.5A, making them even more robust for
operation in harsh electrical environments.
As MOSFE T drivers, the TC442 3/TC4424/TC 4425 ca n
easily charge 1800 pF gate capacitance in under
35 nsec , provi ding l ow e nou gh im ped anc es in both the
on and off states to ensure the MOSFET's intended
state will not be affected, even by large transients.
The TC4423/TC4424/TC4425 inputs may be driven
directly from either TTL or CMOS (2.4V to 18V). In
addition, the 300 mV of built-in hysteresis provides
noise i mmun ity an d all ows the devi ce to be driv en from
slowly rising or falling waveforms.

3.0 PIN DESCRIPTIONS
The descriptions of the pins are listed in Table 3-1.
TABLE 3-1: PIN FUNCTION TABLE (1)
3.1 Inputs A and B
Inputs A and B are TTL/CMOS compatible inputs that
control outputs A and B, respectively. These inputs
have 300 mV of hysteresis between the high and low
input le vels, al lowing them to be dri ven from slow risin g
and falling signals, and to provide noise immunity.
3.2 Outputs A and B
Outputs A and B are CMOS push-pull outputs that are
capable of sourcing and sinking 3A peaks of current
(VDD = 18V). The low output impedance ensures the
gate of the external MOSFET will stay in the intended
state even during large transients. These outputs also
have a reverse current latch-up rating of 1.5A.
3.3 Supply Input (VDD)
VDD is the bias su pply input for the M OSFET driver and
has a voltage range of 4.5V to 18V. This input must be
decoupled to ground with a local ceramic capacitor.
This bypass capacitor provides a localized low-
impedance path for the peak currents that are to be
provided to the load.
3.4 Ground (GND)
Ground is the device return pin. The ground pin(s)
should have a low-impedance connection to the bias
supply source return. High peak currents will flow out
the ground pin(s) when the capacitive load is being
discharged.
3.5 Exposed Metal Pad
The expo sed metal pad of the 6 x5 D F N package is not
internally connected to any potential. Therefore, this
pad can be connected to a ground plane or other cop-
per plane on a printed circuit board to aid in heat
removal from the package.

Note the following details of the code protection feature on Microchip devices:
Microchip products meet the specification contained in their particular Microchip Data Sheet.
Microchip believes that it s family of products is one of the most secure families of it s kind on the market today, when used in the
intended manner and under normal conditions.
There are dishonest and possibly illegal methods used to breach the code protection feature. All of these methods, to our
knowledge, require using the Microchip products in a manner outside the operating specifications contained in Microchip’s Data
Sheets. Most likely, the person doing so is engaged in theft of intellectual property.
Microchip is willing to work with the customer who is concerned about the integrity of their code.
Neither Microchip nor any other semiconductor manufacturer can guarantee the security of their code. Code protection does not
mean that we are guaranteeing the product as “unbreakable.
Code protection is c onstantly evolving. We a t Microchip are committed to continuously improving the code protection features of our
products. Attempts to break Microchip’ s code protection f eature may be a violati on of t he Digit al Millennium Copyright Act. If such act s
allow unauthorized access to your software or other copyrighted work, you may have a right to sue for relief under that Act.
Microchip received ISO/TS-16949:2002 quality system certification for
its worldwide headquarters, design and wafer fabrication facilities in
Chandler and Tempe, Arizona and Mountain View, California in
October 2003. The Company’s quality system processes and
procedures are for its PICmicro® 8-bit MCUs, KEELOQ® code hopping
devices, Serial EEPROMs, micro peripherals, nonvolat ile memory and
analog products. In addition, Microchip’s quality system for the design
and manufacture of development systems is ISO 9001:2000 certified.
