CSD25484F4: Datasheet of Vgs value typo error?

Part Number: CSD25484F4
Other Parts Discussed in Thread: CSD23280F3,

Tool/software:

Gate-to-Source Voltage value of CSD23280F3 described as -12v, Is it a typo error ? should it be +12V ,-12V?

  • Hello Liu,

    Thanks for your interest in TI FETs. The datasheet is correct. The CSD25484F4 and the CSD23280F3 both include single-ended gate ESD protection diode from gate-to-source. When the gate voltage is driven higher than the source voltage, the diode will be forward biased and conduct current. That is why the VGS spec is single-ended. Please see the technical article at the link below for more details. Let me know if you have any additional questions.
