UC3710: Using UCx710 ICs to drive high side FETs

Part Number:UC3710

Hi,

The datasheet for the UCx710 gate drivers mention it to be a low side driver. If I were to use it to drive a high side FET, say for example mosfet in a buck converter, what would be the easiest way to achieve it? A normal solution would be to use a AC coupled transformer to drive the FET. However, the DIP and SOIC packages for the IC have separated power and logic grounds. Does this mean that I can bootstrap the output circuit and use it directly to drive the FET.

Thanks

Nandha
