This is a discrete half bridge driver based on ir2104 gate driver ic and low impedance high current n channel irfp4368 mosfets.
Mosfet high side driver discrete.
In a high side switch shown on the right the load is between ground and the p channel mosfet doing the switching.
The high side drivers come with high side referenced output channels to control power devices like mosfets and igbts.
N channel mosfets generally have a lower on resistance and therefore where there is enough drive voltage to be sure of putting the mosfet in the saturated region it will be more efficient.
Hvic and latch immune cmos technologies enable ruggedized monolithic construction.
22 turn off of high side n channel mosfet.
An n channel mosfet is used and the drive signal is active high.
The focus of this topic is the gate drive requirements of the power mosfet in various switch mode power conversion applications.
The ir2104 is a high voltage high speed power mosfet driver with independent high and low side referenced output channels.
This is required for 1 5v power supplies because n channel mosfets tend to have a prohibitively high threshold voltage vgs.
20 level shifted p channel mosfet driver.
I ve used a similar high side driver circuit in a electronics lab experiment thus i know it s basically working.
Through discrete power transistors.
Abstract and figures this paper presents the design of a high side n channel mosfet driver using discrete components for 24vdc operation.

Analog devices growing portfolio of high side switches and mosfet fet drivers provides a simple and effective solution to drive single dual triple or quad n channel or p channel fets.
The low side switches are convenient for driving leds relays motors etc.
High side switches mosfet drivers.
The ir2101 is a popular driver choice for mosfet half h bridges.
Key features include wide input range of operation extended temperature range of operation a powerful gate drive and short circuit protection.
A p channel mosfet is used and the drive signal is active low.
Because you can generally driven them directly from a microcontroller s output as long as the v gs value of the mosfet is lower than the output voltage of the pin.
Its functional diagram is as follows.
