Title:
BOOTSTRAP CIRCUIT FOR DRIVING POWER MOS TRANSISTOR WITH HIGH-POTENTIAL SIDE DRIVING CONSTITUTION
Document Type and Number:
Japanese Patent JP3528854
Kind Code:
B2
Abstract:

PURPOSE: To actualize the bootstrap circuit which drives a power MOS transistor(TR) with high-potential side constitution wherein the power MOS TR is able to operate with a low-level supply voltage when operating at a high switching frequency.
CONSTITUTION: The bootstrap circuit for the power MOS TR of the high- potential side driving constitution includes a 1st capacitor C1 which can be charged to a 1st voltage level of the supply voltage of the power TR T1. A 2nd capacitor C2 is provided in combination with the 1st capacitor C1 so that a 1st voltage and a 2nd voltage higher than the threshold voltage of the power TR T1 can be used.
