The IR5001S is a universal high-speed controller/N-channel power MOSFET driver for high-performance active ORing circuits.

Available now from International Rectifier, the IR5001S is a universal high-speed controller/N-channel power MOSFET driver for high-performance active ORing circuits.

The active ORing IC, housed in an SO-8 package, is used with an external MOSFET, replacing traditional diode ORing to increase efficiency and reduce power dissipation.

Active ORing is a key require
