2.1.3 Bootstrap and GVDD Capacitor Selection

The bootstrap and GVDD capacitors must both be sized appropriately to maintain the bootstrap voltage above the under-voltage lockout threshold during normal operation. For instructions to determine an appropriate capacitance for both the bootstrap capacitors and GVDD capacitor, see the Bootstrap Capacitor and GVDD Capacitor Selection sections of the MCF8329A Sensorless Field Oriented Control (FOC) Three-phase BLDC Gate Driver Data Sheet.
