Totem Pole Gate Driver Circuit. However there is a detail which got stuck in bipolar totem pole mosfet mind. Test results of the discrete solutions and several integrated circuit drivers are compared.
A digital use of a push pull configuration is the output of ttl and related families. Still not too shabby for like 50 cents of parts this circuit was designed for 12v but bipolar totem pole mosfet work fine from 5v. You could use a fet totem polr has been designed especially for low voltage gate drive activation.
Totem pole basically an output driver circuit use to convert one level of voltage into another level of voltage.
You could use a fet totem polr has been designed especially for low voltage gate drive activation. Discrete driver circuits such as complimentary bipolar and mosfet totem pole topologies are evaluated. Test results of the discrete solutions and several integrated circuit drivers are compared. For example you want to drive gate of mosfet with the help of microcontroller output pin the microcontroller output pin is generating a square wave of voltage level 5 volt and to fully drive mosfet gate of p channel mosfet you need to provide 12 volt at the gate of p channel mosfet.
