Abstract :
This paper presents the design aspects of the gate driver for a power switch used in the automotive applications. The power switches are designed to have inductive and/or resistive load and gate driver was designed in an Infineon Smart Power Bipolar CMOS DMOS technology. In this work will be presented the concept block of the gate driver with focus on timing behaviour considering a low side switch sized for 1A maximum current load.
