General Description

The EL7243C dual input, 2-channel driver achieves the same excellent switching performance of the EL7212 family while providing added flexibility. The power package makes this part extremely well suited for high frequency and heavy loads as in CCD applications. The 2-input logic and configuration is applicable to numerous power MOSFET drive circuits. As with other Elantec drivers, the EL7243C is excellent for driving large capacitive loads with minimal delay and switching times. ‘‘Shoot-thru’’ protection and latching circuits can be implemented by simply ‘‘cross-coupling’’ the 2-channels.
