Datasheet Summary
Half-Bridge Gate Driver
1200 V 2.5 A Source/3.4 A Sink
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 mon- 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...
