LM2722 High Speed Synchronous/Asynchronous MOSFET Driver

LM2722 High Speed Synchronous/Asynchronous MOSFET Driver
General Description
The LM2722, part of the LM2726 family, is designed to be used with multi-phase controllers. This part differs from the LM2726 by changing the functionality of the SYNC_EN pin from a whole chip enable to a low side MOSFET enable. As a result, the SYNC_EN pin now provides control between Synchronous and Asynchronous operations. Having this control can be advantageous in portable systems since Asynchronous operations can be more efficient at very light loads. The LM2722 drives both top and bottom MOSFETs in a push-pull structure simultaneously.
