Description

Predictive Gate Drive™ is a novel digital control-driven technique that optimizes MOSFET turn-on and turn-off delays in synchronous rectifiers. It uses a closed loop feedback system to detect body-diode conduction and continuously adjusts dead-time delays to minimize the conduction time interval. Depending upon operating frequency and output voltage the Predictive Gate Drive™ control
