Half-Bridge Gate Driver
1200 V 2.5 A Source/3.4 A Sink
FAD8253
Description
The FAD8253 is a monolithic half−bridge gate driver IC designed
for driving high voltage, high speed and high power IGBTs up to
+1200 V. The FAD8253 employs ON’s high−voltage process and
common−mode noise canceling technique to provide stable operation
of high−side driver under high dv/dt noise circumstances. The gate
driver includes UVLO circuits tailored to IGBT threshold for both
high side and low side outputs to prevent malfunction when VDD and
VBS are lower than the specified threshold voltage.
The FAD8253 offers a built−in low−side current detection circuitry
with an additional provision for soft shutdown (for low side) during
overcurrent or short−circuit conditions. The driver can provide
adequate protection during short−circuits by turning off its outputs
while simultaneously generating a fault output for fault reporting
purposes. The driver also provides additional flexibility by providing
a shutdown pin to disable driver outputs externally.
