PRODUCTION DATA
The steady state voltage at DT pin is around 0.8V, and the DT pin current will be less than 10uA when RDT=100kΩ. Therefore, It is recommended to parallel a ceramic capacitor, 2.2nF or above, with RDT to achieve better noise immunity and better deadtime matching between two channels, especially when the dead time is larger than 300ns. The major consideration is that the current through the RDT is used to set the dead time, and this current decreases as RDT increases.
PWM input signal’s falling edge activates the programmed dead time for the other signal. The output signals’ dead time is always set to the driver’s programmed dead time. Various driver dead time logic operating conditions are illustrated and explained in Figure 8-4:
