1. I want to ask is mic4451YN can manage those 22 mosfets? And do I need to change resistors gate parametrs ?

Data S:
mic4451YN http://www.micrel.com/_PDF/mic4451.pdf
OK I will try to reply by myself.
1HZ = 1s

1/16KHZ=0,0000625 sek=62500ns

or
625000x16000 we should get about 1s
so driver will be call for every 62500ns
I have cheked speed for my gate Capacitance ––– 5270 ––– pF x22=115940 pF it is around 50ns for mic4451 so it is enough couse driver "rest" for 62500ns-50ns-recovery time50ns
IS THIS POSITIVE THINKING ?
or
maybe driver fill up all the gates for 50ns and then transistors start - mosfet got 18ns for start so maybe this could turn ON them not at once???

Sorry for this basic questions but I wish to be an electronic.

Adam, I have seen your Coguar ver.2 with two drivers why is that, what benefits system with this two drivers?
