Product details
Overview
ADP3629ARMZ-R7 from Analog Devices is a dual, high-speed, 2 A low-side MOSFET driver in an 8-lead MSOP package, designed to drive two independent N-channel power MOSFETs with matched propagation delays (≤2 ns), 10 ns typical rise/fall times at 2.2 nF load, and 9.5 V–18 V supply operation. It enables synchronous rectification and motor drive stages requiring fast, reliable gate control under thermal stress.
For engineers reviewing the ADP3629ARMZ-R7 datasheet, ADP3629ARMZ-R7 pinout, ADP3629ARMZ-R7 application, or ADP3629ARMZ-R7 equivalent, key selection criteria include its inverting-input architecture per channel, integrated overtemperature warning (OTW) flag, UVLO with hysteresis, 3.3 V-compatible logic inputs, and industry-standard SOIC_N/MSOP footprint compatibility.
Technical Context
The ADP3629ARMZ-R7 implements dual independent inverting gate drivers with internal temperature sensing, delivering precise overtemperature warning (120°C–150°C threshold) and shutdown (150°C–180°C) via open-drain OTW output. Its SD input features a precision comparator with 240–320 mV hysteresis for redundant overvoltage protection interfacing.
It operates across −40°C to +85°C ambient, supports parallel channel operation to boost drive strength, and uses PGND-referenced outputs optimized for ground-referenced N-MOSFETs - not high-side or half-bridge configurations. Input thresholds (VIH = 2.0 V, VIL = 0.8 V) ensure robust 3.3 V logic compatibility without level shifting.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Supply Voltage Range | 9.5 V to 18 V - Enables direct use with 12 V intermediate bus rails common in AC/DC and DC/DC converters. |
| Rise/Fall Time | 10 ns typical at 2.2 nF load - Ensures sub-25 ns switching transitions critical for >1 MHz SMPS designs. |
| Peak Output Current | ±2 A - Sufficient to charge/discharge high-QG MOSFETs (e.g., >100 nC) within nanoseconds. |
| Propagation Delay Matching | ≤2 ns between channels - Minimizes timing skew in dual-phase or interleaved topologies. |
| UVLO Threshold Hysteresis | 1.0 V - Prevents oscillation during brown-out conditions by separating turn-on (8.7 V typ) and turn-off (7.7 V typ) points. |
| Overtemperature Warning | 120°C–150°C threshold, active-low OTW - Provides early system-level thermal fault signaling before shutdown occurs. |
| Input Logic Compatibility | 3.3 V CMOS/TTL - Interfaces directly with digital PWM controllers (e.g., ADP1043, UCD3138) without external level shifters. |
Pinout & Package
ADP3629ARMZ-R7 is housed in an 8-lead Mini Small Outline Package (MSOP, RM-8), 3.0 mm × 3.0 mm body, 0.65 mm lead pitch, with exposed pad for thermal enhancement. Pin 1 identifier located at top-left corner; device marked "L8Q" on top surface.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1 (SD) | Shutdown Control Input | Active-high signal disabling both outputs; internal pull-up requires external pull-down for normal operation. |
| 2 (INA) | Inverting Input A | Drives OUTA with inverted logic: high input → low output; enables noninverting gate drive when paired with external inverter. |
| 3 (PGND) | Power Ground | Low-inductance return path for output current; must be connected directly to MOSFET source to minimize shoot-through risk. |
| 4 (INB) | Inverting Input B | Drives OUTB with inverted logic; independent of INA for asynchronous dual-channel control. |
| 5 (OUTB) | Channel B Output | Low-side N-MOSFET gate driver output; ±2 A peak sink/source into capacitive loads up to 2.2 nF. |
| 6 (VDD) | Power Supply | 9.5–18 V bias rail; requires local 4.7 µF ceramic + 100 nF bypass capacitor placed adjacent to pins 6 and 3. |
| 7 (OUTA) | Channel A Output | Low-side N-MOSFET gate driver output; electrically matched to OUTB for timing-critical dual-phase applications. |
| 8 (OTW) | Overtemperature Warning Flag | Open-drain, active-low output; pulled low when die temperature exceeds warning threshold; supports wire-OR'ed multi-device monitoring. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Inverting-input architecture | Enables direct interface with standard PWM controllers that output noninverted signals - OUTA/OUTB follow inverted logic of INA/INB for synchronous rectifier gate timing. |
| Matched propagation delays | ≤2 ns difference between channels ensures precise phase alignment in interleaved converters and dual-motor drives. |
| Dual overtemperature protection | Separate warning (OTW) and shutdown thresholds allow staged thermal response: warning triggers system derating; shutdown halts operation before junction damage. |
| UVLO with hysteresis | Guarantees clean startup/shutdown behavior across varying input rail conditions - prevents erratic output toggling during power ramp-up/down. |
| Industry-standard MSOP/SOIC pinout | Enables drop-in replacement of legacy drivers (e.g., IR2110 variants) without PCB redesign - same pin count and functional assignment as ADP3630ARMZ-R7. |
| 3.3 V logic compatible inputs | Accepts standard microcontroller or DSP GPIO outputs without level translation, reducing BOM count and layout complexity. |
Applications
| AC-to-DC Switch Mode Power Supplies | DC-to-DC Power Supplies |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar dual low-side MOSFET driver applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| ADP3630ARMZ-R7 | Noninverting-input architecture per channel (INA/INB drive OUTA/OUTB directly); identical pinout, specs, and thermal protection. | Better suited for direct PWM controller interfaces where output polarity must match input polarity (e.g., TI UCC272xx-based designs). | Select ADP3630ARMZ-R7 when noninverting logic simplifies gate drive timing; ADP3629ARMZ-R7 remains optimal for synchronous rectifier topologies requiring inverted control. |
| LM5112MMX/NOPB | Higher 4 A peak current, wider 4.5–14 V supply range, no OTW flag or SD comparator; MSOP-8 package with different pinout (no PGND pin at position 3). | Lacks integrated thermal warning and precise shutdown - requires external circuitry for comparable protection functionality. | Choose LM5112MMX/NOPB only when higher peak current is mandatory and thermal monitoring is handled externally; ADP3629ARMZ-R7 offers superior system-level protection integration. |
Compared with ADP3630ARMZ-R7, ADP3629ARMZ-R7 provides inverted logic for synchronous rectifier timing alignment without external inverters; compared with LM5112MMX/NOPB, it delivers integrated thermal warning and UVLO hysteresis - reducing component count and improving functional safety in regulated power systems.

FAQ
What is the logic polarity of the ADP3629ARMZ-R7 inputs and outputs?
The ADP3629ARMZ-R7 features inverting-input architecture: a high signal on INA forces OUTA low, and a high signal on INB forces OUTB low. This polarity is optimized for synchronous rectifier control where gate drive must be opposite the primary-side PWM signal. The ADP3629ARMZ-R7 does not support noninverting operation without external inversion circuitry.
Does the ADP3629ARMZ-R7 support parallel operation of its two output channels?
Yes, the ADP3629ARMZ-R7 supports parallel operation of OUTA and OUTB to increase total peak drive current beyond ±2 A per channel. As documented in the datasheet Figure 25, this requires connecting INA and INB together and tying OUTA/OUTB to a common gate node. Layout symmetry and trace matching are essential to ensure balanced current sharing between channels in the ADP3629ARMZ-R7.
What is the function of the OTW pin on the ADP3629ARMZ-R7?
The OTW (Overtemperature Warning) pin on the ADP3629ARMZ-R7 is an open-drain, active-low output that asserts when the silicon die temperature reaches 120°C–150°C. It remains asserted until temperature falls below the hysteresis threshold (~110°C). This signal can be monitored by a host MCU to initiate thermal derating, fan control, or graceful shutdown - providing actionable insight before the ADP3629ARMZ-R7 enters overtemperature shutdown at 150°C–180°C.
Can the ADP3629ARMZ-R7 drive high-side N-channel MOSFETs?
No, the ADP3629ARMZ-R7 is strictly a low-side gate driver with outputs referenced to PGND. It lacks a floating high-side supply or level-shifting circuitry required for high-side N-MOSFET drive. Attempting to use the ADP3629ARMZ-R7 for high-side applications will result in incorrect gate biasing and potential device failure. For high-side drive, consider dedicated bootstrap or isolated gate drivers instead of the ADP3629ARMZ-R7.
What decoupling capacitance is recommended for the VDD pin of the ADP3629ARMZ-R7?
Analog Devices specifies a minimum 4.7 µF low-ESR ceramic capacitor placed directly between VDD (pin 6) and PGND (pin 3), supplemented by a 100 nF ceramic capacitor in parallel. These must be mounted with minimal trace length - ideally <2 mm - to suppress high-frequency noise and supply transients. Improper decoupling degrades rise/fall times and risks inductive voltage spikes on the ADP3629ARMZ-R7 outputs, potentially damaging connected MOSFETs.
