| Jan 17, 2015 at 2:05 | comment | added | Russell McMahon♦ | What they said ... but ... do you need the low side driver as opposed to some sort of load to pull the P Channel drain low when it is off. If you need any sort of speed or power in the pull down then an active pair makes sense but if slow and just on or not on then a single FET and pull down may make sense. | Always watch out for Vgsmax in situations like this. In this case they do not seem to say (they give Vgs of 10V but that's presumably not max). | |
