Calculation of Gate-Driver Power Consumption

The gate-driver current consumption is calculated based on the following assumptions:

  • Digital isolator primary side voltage = 3.3 V
  • Digital Isolator secondary side voltage = 5 V
  • Gate drive PNP transistor power supply voltage = 8.5 V
  • The SSR MOSFET gate current consumption during switching is neglected.
  • The AC current of digital isolators are neglected, as the SSRs are expected to be switching at a very low rate and the digital isolator AC current is negligible.
  • The on-state voltage drop across PNP transistor Q2 is neglected

ISO7760 secondary current (Vi = Vcc), ICC2_ISO7760 = 3.3 mA.

ISO7740 secondary current (Vi = Vcc), ICC2_ISO7740 = 2.2 mA.

Gate current of single SSR, with 10-kΩ resistor across MOSFET gate and source, IG = (8.5 – 0.7) V / 10 kΩ = 780 µA.

PNP transistor biasing current, IBIAS = 8.5 V / (10 kΩ + 100 kΩ) = 77.3 µA.

Secondary side total gate drive current (approximate) with all SSR on, IGD_ON = 3.3 mA + 2.2 mA + (10 × (780 + 77.3) µA) = 14.07 mA.

Secondary side total gate drive current (approximate) with all SSR off, IGD_OFF = 3.3 mA + 2.2 mA = 5.5 mA.

The current consumption can be reduced by increasing the resistance across the gate-to-source terminals of the MOSFET, at the expense of increased SSR turn off time.
