Hello,
Your data sheets for all UCCx808x products describe a max rating of -0.5A (source) and 1.0A (sink) on the OUTA and OUTB pins. Yet, in all the data sheets for these products, I see reference designs that have low sibgle-digit ohm ratings for the resistors between the OUTs and the FET gates, which would seem to be contradictory. If I was looking to run any of these parts at 14V, it seems to me I'd have to have a resistor above 28 ohms to prevent burning out the device. Is there something I'm missing here? Is it that the peak value of current driving the FET gates is so brief as to ignore the max rating?
In short, I'm having trouble driving gates to said 14V with resistors large enough to prevent exceeding absolute maximum ratings, but the one time I attempted a smaller resistance (in this case 10 ohms) I ended up cooking the part.
Thanks!
