Pin Configuration and Functions

Table 5-1 Pin Functions
PIN TYPE1 DESCRIPTION
NAME NO.
DISABLE 5 I Disables both driver outputs if asserted high, enables if set low or left open. This pin is pulled low internally if left open. It is recommended to tie this pin to ground if not used to achieve better noise immunity.
DT 6 I Programmable dead time function.

Tying DT to VCCI disables the DT function with dead time ≅ 0 ns. Leaving DT open sets the dead time to <15 ns. Placing a 500-Ω to 500-kΩ resistor (RDT) between DT and GND adjusts dead time according to: DT (in ns) = 10 × RDT (in kΩ). It is recommended to parallel a ceramic capacitor, ≥2.2-nF, with RDT to achieve better noise immunity.

GND 4 P Primary-side ground reference. All signals in the primary side are referenced to this ground.
NC 2 No connection.
NC 7 No connection.
NC 12 No connection.
NC 13 No connection.
OUTA 15 O Output of driver A. Connect to the gate of the A channel FET or IGBT. Output A is in phase with PWM input with a propagation delay
OUTB 10 O Output of driver B. Connect to the gate of the B channel FET or IGBT. Output B is always complementary to output A with a programmed dead time.
PWM 1 I PWM input has a TTL/CMOS compatible input threshold. This pin is pulled low internally if left open.
VCCI 3 P Primary-side supply voltage. Locally decoupled to GND using a low ESR/ESL capacitor located as close to the device as possible.
VCCI 8 P Primary-side supply voltage. This pin is internally shorted to pin 3.
VDDA 16 P Secondary-side power for driver A. Locally decoupled to VSSA using a low ESR/ESL capacitor located as close to the device as possible.
VDDB 11 P Secondary-side power for driver B. Locally decoupled to VSSB using a low ESR/ESL capacitor located as close to the device as possible.
VSSA 14 P Ground for secondary-side driver A. Ground reference for secondary side A channel.
VSSB 9 P Ground for secondary-side driver B. Ground reference for secondary side B channel.
