MCP14T0517 Push-Pull Transformer Drivers

Microchip Technology MCP14T0517 Push-Pull Transformer Drivers are designed for compact, isolated power supplies operating from a 3V_DC to 5.5V_DC input. The Microchip MCP14T0517 drivers integrate two power MOSFETs and are capable of driving push‑pull, center‑tapped transformers directly from the supply. The devices feature an internal oscillator followed by a gate‑drive stage that delivers complementary outputs for ground‑referenced N‑channel power switches. Each switch includes a controlled voltage slew‑rate, and the oscillator employs frequency dithering to help reduce EMI. An external clock source may also be used when precise harmonic placement or synchronization with multiple transformer drivers is required.
