MIC5011 Design Techniques
by Mitchell Lee
– – The control input turns the MOSFET on for any input greater
than approximately 3.5V, so the MIC5011 interfaces directly
with CMOS logic, open collector gates, opto-isolators, switches,
etc. Interfacing techniques are discussed in greater detail in
Figure 1. Charge Pump Voltage Doubler
a later section.

Inductive Loads
15 Many loads such as solenoids, motors, and relays, exhibit
inductive characteristics. When an inductive load is commu-
tated a negative voltage spike results (see Figure 4). The
spike is clamped by the power MOSFET’s source as the

Control Inputs
4.5-15V 48V The MIC5011 is easily interfaced to any control signal. The

Heater isolation may be desirable for either safety or noise reasons.
3 Source C2 6 Opto-isolators are a good choice for this use and with the
4 Gnd Gate 5 IRF530 hysteresis circuit shown, they provide clean switching. High
OFF voltages can be sensed and acted upon with a neon light and
a light-dependent resistor.
Familiar momentary “ON/OFF” push buttons are easily ac-
commodated as shown. The “ON” button is AC coupled so
that any contention between the “ON” and “OFF” buttons is
resolved in favor of the “OFF” button. Hysteresis is used to
Figure 6. Low-Side Driver latch the output into the appropriate state. 5V logic com-
mands are interfaced by a CMOS gate. Since the MIC5011
input includes electrostatic discharge protection to the supply,
the logic gate should not be powered from a supply higher
than VDD.
