8.2.2.5 External Bootstrap Diode

The UCC27282-Q1 incorporates the bootstrap diode necessary to generate the high-side bias for HO to work satisfactorily. The characteristics of this diode are important to achieve efficient, reliable operation. The characteristics to consider are forward voltage drop and dynamic resistance. Generally, low forward voltage drop diodes are preferred for low power loss during charging of the bootstrap capacitor. The device has a boot diode forward voltage drop rated at 0.85 V and dynamic resistance of 1.5 Ω for reliable charge transfer to the bootstrap capacitor. The dynamic characteristics to consider are diode recovery time and stored charge. Diode recovery times that are specified without operating conditions, can be misleading. Diode recovery times at no forward current (IF) can be noticeably less than with forward current applied. The UCC27282-Q1 boot diode recovery is specified as 50 ns at IF = 20 mA, IREV = 0.5 A. Dynamic impedance of UCC27282-Q1 bootstrap diode naturally limits the peak forward current and prevents any damage if repetitive peak forward current pulses exist in the system for most applications.

In applications where switching frequencies are very high, for example in excess of 1 MHz, and the low-side minimum pulse widths are very small, the diode peak forward current could be very high and peak reverse current could also be very high, specifically if high bootstrap capacitor value has been chosen. In such applications it might be advisable to use external Schottkey diode as bootstrap diode. It is safe to at least make a provision for such diode on the board if possible.
