LTC1255
Dual 24V High-Side
MOSFET Driver
The LTC1255 dual high-side driver allows using low
cost N-channel FETs for high-side industrial and auto-
motive switching applications. An internal charge pump
boosts the gate drive voltage above the positive rail,
fully enhancing an N-channel MOS switch with no
external components. Low power operation, with 12µA
standby current, allows use in virtually all systems with
maximum efficiency.
Included on-chip is independent overcurrent sensing
to provide automatic shutdown in case of short circuits.
A time delay can be added to the current sense to
prevent false triggering on high in-rush current loads.
The LTC1255 operates from 9V to 24V supplies and is
well suited for industrial and automotive applications.
The LTC1255 is available in both an 8-pin DIP and an
8-pin SOIC.

The denotes specifications which apply over the full operating
temperature range.
Note 1: Quiescent current OFF is for both channels in OFF condition.
Note 2: Quiescent current ON is per driver and is measured independently.
The gate voltage is clamped to 12V above the rail to simulate the effects of
protection clamps connected across the GATE-SOURCE of the power
MOSFET.
Note 3: Zener diode clamps must be connected across the GATE-SOURCE
of the power MOSFET to limit V
GS
. 1N5242A (through hole) or
MMBZ5242A (surface mount) 12V Zener diodes are recommended. All
Turn-ON and Turn-OFF tests are performed with a 12V Zener clamp in
series with a small-signal diode connected between V
S
and the GATE
output to simulate the effects of a 12V protection Zener clamp connected
across the GATE-SOURCE of the power MOSFET.
Note 4: Time for V
GATE
to drop below 1V.
