Dead Time Setting Guidelines

For power converter topologies utilizing half-bridges, the dead time setting between the top and bottom transistor is important for preventing shoot-through during dynamic switching.

The UCC21225A dead time specification in the electrical table is defined as the time interval from 90% of one channel’s falling edge to 10% of the other channel’s rising edge (see Figure 27). This definition ensures that the dead time setting is independent of the load condition, and guarantees linearity through manufacture testing. However, this dead time setting may not reflect the dead time in the power converter system, since the dead time setting is dependent on the external gate drive turn-on/off resistor, DC-Link switching voltage/current, as well as the input capacitance of the load transistor.

Here is a suggestion on how to select an appropriate dead time for UCC21225A:

Equation 22. UCC21225A sluscv6-equation-20.gif

where

  • DTSetting: UCC21225A dead time setting in ns, DTSetting = 10 × RDT (in kΩ).
  • DTReq: System required dead time between the real VGS signal of the top and bottom switch with enough margin, or ZVS requirement.
  • TF_Sys: In-system gate turn-off falling time at worst case of load, voltage/current conditions.
  • TR_Sys: In-system gate turn-on rising time at worst case of load, voltage/current conditions.
  • TD(on): Turn-on delay time, from 10% of the transistor gate signal to power transistor gate threshold.

In the example, DTSetting is set to 250-ns.

It should be noted that the UCC21225A dead time setting is decided by the DT pin configuration (See Programmable Dead Time (DT) Pin), and it cannot automatically fine-tune the dead time based on system conditions. It is recommended to parallel a ceramic capacitor, 2.2-nF or above, close to DT pin to achieve better noise immunity and dead time matching.
