DESCRIPTION

•
The A6861 is an N-channel power MOSFET driver capable
of controlling MOSFETs connected as a 3-phase solid state
relay in phase-isolation applications. The A6861 is intended
for automotive systems that must meet ASIL requirements. In
safety critical applications motor isolation is a critical safety
requirement which is currently addressed with discrete circuitry
or relays. Allegro A

SIL
TM
products include specific features
that compliment proper system design, allowing users to achieve
up to ASIL-D system rating.
The A6861 has three independent floating gate drive outputs
to maintain the power MOSFETs in the on state over the full
supply range with high phase-voltage slew rates. An integrated
charge pump regulator provides the above battery supply
voltage necessary to maintain the power MOSFETs in the
on state continuously when the phase voltage is equal to the
battery voltage. The charge pump will maintain sufficient gate
drive (>7.5 V) for battery voltages down to 4.5 V with 100 kΩ
gate-source resistors.
The three gate drives can be independently controlled by a logic
level control input. In typical applications the MOSFETs will
be switched on within 8 µs and will switch off within 1 µs.
An undervoltage monitor checks that the pumped supply voltage
is high enough to ensure that the MOSFETs are maintained in
a safe conducting state.
