ABSTRACT:
A high performance isolated gate drive circuit for driving MOSFET is disclosed which uses a MOSFET pull-down device, provides unusually low gate discharge impedance, exceptionally fast turn-off of the controlled switch and reduced power dissipation in the overall gate drive circuit. It also provides superior off-time noise immunity.
