HV, High Speed Power MOSFET and IGBT Drivers

The IRS2336xD (J&S) are high voltage, high speed power MOSFET and IGBT driver with three high side and low side referenced output channels for 3-phase applications. This IC is designed to be used with low-cost bootstrap power supplies; the bootstrap diode functionality has been integrated into this device to reduce the component count and the PCB size. Proprietary HVIC and latch immune CMOS technologies have been implemented in a rugged monolithic structure. The floating logic input is compatible with standard CMOS or LSTTL outputs (down to 3.3V logic). A current trip function which terminates all six outputs can be derived from an external current sense resistor. Enable functionality is available to terminate all six outputs simultaneously. An open-drain FAULT signal is provided to indicate that a fault (e.g., over-current, over-temperature, or undervoltage shutdown event) has occurred. Fault conditions are cleared automatically after a delay programmed externally via an RC network connected to the RCIN input. The output drivers feature a high-pulse current buffer stage designed for minimum driver cross-conduction. Shoot-through protection cicuitry and a minimum deadtime circuitry have been integrated into this IC. Propagation delays are matched to simplify the HVIC's use in high frequency applications. The floating channels can be used to drive N-channel power MOSFETs or IGBTs in the high side configuration which operates up to 600V.
