Half-bridge driver with 3 A peak drive and 120 V bootstrap ceiling
It delivers 3 A peak source and 3 A peak sink current. The bootstrap high-side driver supports a maximum voltage of 120 V. Supply voltage range is 8 V to 17 V.
8 ns rise / 7 ns fall — edge-rate trade-offs in layout
This reduces the overlap period between drain voltage and drain current during hard switching, cutting turn-on and turn-off losses. The trade-off is increased di/dt and dv/dt, which can couple noise into the gate-drive loop and the power stage if the layout does not minimise the loop area between the driver output, the MOSFET gate, and the source return. The junction temperature rating is 140 °C.
Independent channels and logic-level thresholds
The two driver channels are independent and non-inverting, meaning each input controls its own output without cross-coupling or dead-time generation on-chip. The designer must insert dead time externally via the PWM controller or a separate logic circuit to prevent shoot-through in the half-bridge.
This part is suitable for qualification into new production designs without supply-chain risk from imminent obsolescence.
