PRODUCTION DATA
The level shift circuit is the interface from the high-side input, which is a VSS referenced signal, to the high-side driver stage which is referenced to the switch node (HS pin). The level shift allows control of the HO output which is referenced to the HS pin. The delay introduced by the level shifter is kept as low as possible and therefore the device provides excellent propagation delay characteristic and delay matching with the low-side driver output. Low delay matching allows power stages to operate with less dead time. The reduction in dead-time is very important in applications where high efficiency is required.
