The UCC5880-Q1 is a functional safety compliant isolated gate driver targeted for EV/HEV traction inverter applications. The flexibility of SPI programing of adjustable gate drive strength, blanking times, deglitches, thresholds, function enables, and fault handling allow for the UCC5880 to support a wide variety of IGBT or SiC power transistors that are used across all EV/HEV traction inverter applications. UCC5880-Q1 integrates all of the protection features required in most traction inverter applications. Additionally, the 20-A gate drive capability eliminates the need for external booster circuit, reducing overall design size. The integrated Miller clamp circuit holds the gate off during transient events and can be configured to use the internal 4-A pull-down, or drive an external n-channel MOSFET. Advanced, internal capacitor-based isolation technology maximizes CMTI performance, while minimizing the radiated emissions.
