STGAP2D
Galvanically isolated 4 A half-bridge gate driver
Datasheet - production data
Description
The STGAP2D is a half-bridge gate driver which
isolates the gate driving channels from the low
voltage control and interface circuitry.
SO-16
The gate driver is characterized by 4 A capability
and rail-to-rail outputs, making the device also
suitable for high power inverter applications such
as motor drivers in industrial applications.
The device integrates protection functions:
dedicated SD and BRAKE pins are available,
UVLO and thermal shutdown are included to
easily design high reliability systems, and the
interlocking function prevents outputs from being
high at the same time.
The input to output propagation delay results are
contained within 80 ns, providing high PWM
control accuracy.
A standby mode is available in order to reduce
idle power consumption.
