General Description
The TC4421/TC4422 are high-current buffer/drivers
capable of driving large MOSFETs and IGBTs.
These devices are essentially immune to any form of
upset, except direct overvoltage or over-dissipation.
They cannot be latched under any conditions within
their power and voltage ratings. These parts are not
subject to damage or improper operation when up to
5V of ground bounce is present on their ground termi-
nals. They can accept, without damage or logic upset,
more t han 1A in duct ive curr ent of either polari ty bei ng
forced back into their outputs. In addition, all terminals
are fully protected against up to 4 kV of electrostatic
discharge.
The TC4421/TC4422 inputs may be driven directly
from either TTL or CMOS (3V to 18V). In addition,
300 mV of hysteresis is built into the input, providing
noise immunity and allowing the device to be driven
from slowly rising or falling waveforms.
With both surface-mount and pin-through-hole
packages and four operating temperature range offer-
ings, the TC4421/22 family of 9A MOSFET drivers fit
into most any application where high gate/line
capac itance drive is required.

3.0 PIN DESCRIPTIONS
The descriptions of the pins are listed in Table 3-1.
TABLE 3-1: PIN FUNCTION TABLE
3.1 Supply Input (VDD)
The VDD in put is the bia s supply for the M OSFET driver
and is rated for 4.5V to 18V with respect to the ground
pin. The VDD input should be bypassed to ground with
a local ceramic capacitor. The value of the capacitor
shoul d be chos en base d on the capaciti ve load that is
being driv en . A min im um val ue of 1.0 µF is sug ge ste d.
3.2 Control Input
The MOSFET driver input is a high-impedance,
TTL/CMOS compatible input. The input also has
300 mV of hysteresis between the high and low
thresholds that prevents output glitching even when the
rise and fall time of the input signal is very slow.
3.3 CMOS Push-Pull Output
The MOSFET driver output is a low-impedance,
CMOS, push-pull style output capable of driving a
capacitive load with 9.0A peak currents. The MOSFET
driver output is capable of withstanding 1.5A peak
reverse currents of either polarity.
3.4 Ground
The ground pin s are the return path for the bias current
and for the high peak currents that discharge the load
capa citor. The gro und pins should be tied into a ground
plane or have very short traces to the bias supply
source retu rn.
3.5 Exposed Metal Pad
The expo sed metal pad of th e 6x5 DF N packa ge i s n ot
internally connected to any potential. Therefore, this
pad can be connected to a ground plane or other
copper 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 its family of products is one of the most secure families of its kind on t he market today, when used in the
intended manner and under normal conditions.
The re 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 Dat a
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 c ode prot ection f eatures 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

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.
