The IR1176 is a high speed CMOS controller designed to drive N-channel power MOSFETs used as synchronous rectifiers in high current, high frequency forward converters with output voltages equal or below 5VDC.
Features
• Provides constant and proper gate drive to power MOSFETs regardless of transformer output
• Minimizes loss due to power MOSFET body drain diode conduction
• Stand alone operation - no ties to primary side
• Schmitt trigger input with double pulse suppression allows operation in noisy environments
