Note 2 When using sense MOSFETs, it is recommended that R
SENSE
< 50Ω. Higher values may affect the sense MOSFET’s current transfer ratio.
Note 3 Input switched from 0.8V (TTL low) to 2.0V (TTL high), time for Gate transition from 0V to 2V.
Note 4 Input switched from 0.8V (TTL low) to 2.0V (TTL high), time for Gate transition from 2V to 10V.
Note 5 Input switched from 2.0V (TTL high) to 0.8V (TTL low), time for Gate transition from 11V (Gate ON voltage) to 10V.
Note 6 Input switched from 2.0V (TTL high) to 0.8V (TTL low), time for Gate transition from 10V from 2V.
Note 7 Frequency where gate on voltage reduces to 10V with 50% input duty cycle.
