ZHCSOU8B August 2021 – February 2022 MCT8316A
PRODUCTION DATA
Since the output stages use N-channel FETs, the device requires a gate-drive voltage higher than the VM power supply to turn-on the high-side FETs. The MCT8316A integrates a charge-pump circuit that generates a voltage above the VM supply for this purpose.
The charge pump requires two external capacitors(CCP, CFLY) for operation. See the block diagram and pin descriptions for details on these capacitors (value, connection, and so forth).
