TPS7H60x3-SP 系列耐辐射保障 (RHA) 氮化镓 (GaN) 场效应晶体管 (FET) 栅极驱动器专为高频、高效率应用而设计。该系列包括 TPS7H6003-SP(200V 等级)、TPS7H6013-SP(60V 等级)和 TPS7H6023-SP(22V 等级)。这些驱动器具有可调节死区时间功能、30ns 低传播延迟,以及 5.5ns 的高侧和低侧匹配。这些器件还包括内部高侧和低侧 LDO,无论电源电压如何,都能确保驱动电压为 5V。TPS7H60x3-SP 驱动器都具有分离栅输出,可独立灵活地调节输出的导通和关断强度。
TPS7H60x3-SP 驱动器具有两种控制输入模式:独立输入模式 (IIM) 和 PWM 模式。在 IIM 中,每个输出都由专用输入来控制。在 PWM 模式下,两个补偿输出信号由单个输入产生,用户可以调节每个边沿的死区时间。
栅极驱动器还提供用户可配置的输入互锁功能,在独立输入模式下作为防击穿保护。当两个输入同时导通时,输入互锁不允许两个输出同时导通。用户可以选择在独立输入模式下启用或禁用此保护,从而可以在多种不同的转换器配置中使用该驱动器。这些驱动器还可用于半桥和双低侧转换器应用。

The TPS7H60x3-SP series of radiation-hardness-assured (RHA) half-bridge gate drivers are intended for use with enhancement mode GaN FETs. The series consists of the TPS7H6003-SP (200-V driver), TPS7H6013-SP (60-V driver), and the TPS7H6023-SP (22-V driver). The drivers can be utilized in high frequency, high efficiency GaN based power converter designs. Each driver is designed to have a propagation delay of 30 ns (typical) as well as 5.5 ns (typical) high-side to low-side delay matching.
The drivers contain high-side and low-side internal linear regulators. These ensure that the gate voltages are maintained at 5 V in order to prevent any damage of the GaN devices that are being driven. Split outputs on the high-side and low-side drivers provide the user the flexibility to independently adjust the turn-on and turn-off times of the GaN FETs. An external bootstrap diode is required for the gate drivers and as such, the user has the ability to optimize the diode based on the application. The drivers contain an internal switch in series with the bootstrap diode that can be used to prevent overcharging of the bootstrap capacitor and decreases reverse recovery losses in the diode.
The gate drivers have two modes of operation: PWM mode and independent input mode (IIM). The dual mode operation allows for each gate driver to be used with a wide number of PWM controllers to enable both synchronous rectifier control and GaN FET compatibility. The user also has the option to enable input interlock protection in IIM, allowing for anti-shoot through protection in synchronous buck and half-bridge topologies. This protection can also be disabled in IIM if desired, which allows the drivers to be utilized in two-switch forward converters and dual single ended applications.
