Infineon - EiceDRIVER™ EVAL-1ED44175N01B board available for quick, in-circuit evaluation in switched-mode power or PFC applications.

Infineon – EiceDRIVER™ EVAL-1ED44175N01B board available for quick, in-circuit evaluation in switched-mode power or PFC applications.

Infineon Technologies expands its EiceDRIVER™ low-side gate driver portfolio with 1ED44175N01B gate drivers. These are 25 V, single-channel low-side gate drivers with integrated fast over-current protection (OCP), fault reporting, and enable functionality in PG-SOT23-6 pin package. By integrating these features, the new gate drivers can provide cost and space savings compared solutions using an external OCP comparator. The new gate driver also feature an accurate current sensing threshold tolerance o f±5 percent with sensing to shutdown in less than 1us to improve system reliability and robustness.

The small adapter boards are now available for testing 1ED44175N01B. The purpose of these boards is to provide fast, in-circuit evaluation in existing switched-mode power or PFC designs.

Features:

-0.246 V over-current threshold with accurate ±5% tolerance
Fast Over-current detection with negative voltage input
Single pin for fault output and enable
Programmable fault clear time
IGBT Under voltage lockout protection
CMOS Schmitt-triggered inputs
3 V, 5 V and 15 V input logic compatible
Output in phase with input
-10 VDC negative Input capability of OCP pin
3 kV ESD HBM

Benefits:

Integrated fast over-current protection and single-pin fault output and enable function provide potential space and cost savings
±5% OCP threshold tolerance provides accurate and repeatable sensing
Less than 1us over-current detection to output shutdown
Flexible fault clear time set-up
Under-voltage lock out provides protection at low supply voltage

Target applications:

Home appliances
Room air conditioners
Refrigerators
Small Home Appliances
Induction cooker
Induction rice cooker
Microwave oven
Power supplies (SMPS)

Competitive advantage:

The only low-side gate driver with integrated overcurrent protection and less than 1us OC sense to output driver shutdown in a tiny SOT23 6-pin package.
