ABSTRACT:
A high-side boosted gate drive circuit is disclosed. In a particular example, an output driver is described, comprising a switching device configured to selectively conduct current in response to a charge being present at a control terminal for a duty cycle, a charging device configured to deliver charge to the control terminal based on the first duty cycle, a charge control device configured to selectively couple the charging device to deliver charge to the control terminal and to selectively decouple the charging device from the control terminal to charge the charging device, and a discharge control device configured to remove charge from the control terminal.
