Programmable Temperature Controlled MOSFET Driver
ISL25700
The Temperature Controlled MOSFET Driver is a highly
integrated solution that combines a MOSFET driver with
overcurrent protection and two 8-bit resolution DACs on
a monolithic CMOS integrated circuit (IC).
The ISL25700 sets up and monitors temperature at the
point of interest, compares it with the user programmable
setpoint, and adjusts the output until the set temperature is
reached. An external power MOSFET, a heater, an NTC
thermistor and the ISL25700 are parts of the temperature
control loop.
It also features programmable overcurrent protection of
the MOSFET. The current protection automatically adjusts
the output voltage in order to keep MOSFET power under
user defined limits. The protection settings always
override the temperature settings that cause violation of
the current limit.
There is an additional 8-bit General Purpose DAC that is
available for application specific use.
The ISL25700 can be used in a variety of applications
where constant temperature is a key parameter.
