In one corner weighing in at an impressive 9Amps peak is the Microchip TC4421 mosfet driver
And in the other corner weighing in at a whimpy 2.5Amps peak is Fairchild'ss FAN3100 mosfet driver
Rise time comparison boxing....fight!
Fairchild Figure 33 Microchip Figure 2-2
Hey!...Looks like I'll get the same switching performance when driving a mosfet with Ciss= 710pf and total gate charge = 23nC.
Am I missing something here? I assumed the Microchip part with it's 9A spec (top of the page) would have superior rise time. (Assuming due to less internal resistance.)
It's a draw?
