Synchronous-Rectified Buck MOSFET
Drivers
The HIP6601 and HIP6603 are high frequency, dual
MOSFET drivers specifically designed to drive two power
N-Channel MOSFETs in a synchronous-rectified buck
converter topology. These drivers combined with a HIP630x
Multi-Phase Buck PWM controller and Intersil UltraFETs™
form a complete core-voltage regulator solution for
advanced microprocessors.
The HIP6601 drives the lower gate in a synchronous-rectifier
bridge to 12V, while the upper gate can be independently
driven over a range from 5V to 12V. The HIP6603 drives
both upper and lower gates over a range of 5V to 12V. This
drive-voltage flexibility provides the advantage of optimizing
applications involving trade-offs between switching losses
and conduction losses.
The output drivers in the HIP6601 and HIP6603 have the
capacity to efficiently switch power MOSFETs at frequencies
up to 2MHz. Each driver is capable of driving a 3000pF load
with a 30ns propagation delay and 50ns transition time. Both
products implement bootstrapping on the upper gate with
only an external capacitor required. This reduces
implementation complexity and allows the use of higher
performance, cost effective, N-Channel MOSFETs. Adaptive
shoot-through protection is integrated to prevent both
MOSFETs from conducting simultaneously.

Functional Pin Description
PVCC (Pin 7)
UGATE (Pin 1)
For the HIP6601, this pin supplies the upper gate drive bias.
Connect this pin from +12V down to +5V.
Upper gate drive output. Connect to gate of high-side power
N-Channel MOSFET.
BOOT (Pin 2)
Floating bootstrap supply pin for the upper gate drive.
Connect the bootstrap capacitor between this pin and the
PHASE pin. The bootstrap capacitor provides the charge to
turn on the upper MOSFET. See the Internal Bootstrap
Device section under DESCRIPTION for guidance in
choosing the appropriate capacitor value.
PWM (Pin 3)
The PWM signal is the control input for the driver. The PWM
signal can enter three distinct states during operation, see the
three-state PWM Input section under DESCRIPTION for further
details. Connect this pin to the PWM output of the controller.
GND (Pin 4)
Bias and reference ground. All signals are referenced to this
node.
LGATE (Pin 5)
Lower gate drive output. Connect to gate of the low-side
power N-Channel MOSFET.
VCC (Pin 6)
Connect this pin to a +12V bias supply. Place a high quality
bypass capacitor from this pin to GND.
For the HIP6603, this pin supplies both the upper and lower
gate drive bias. Connect this pin to either +12V or +5V.
PHASE (Pin 8)
Connect this pin to the source of the upper MOSFET and the
drain of the lower MOSFET. The PHASE voltage is
monitored for adaptive shoot-through protection. This pin
also provides a return path for the upper gate drive.
Description
Operation
Designed for versatility and speed, the HIP6601 and HIP6603
dual MOSFET drivers control both high-side and low-side NChannel FETs from one externally provided PWM signal.
The upper and lower gates are held low until the driver is
initialized. Once the VCC voltage surpasses the VCC Rising
Threshold (See Electrical Specifications), the PWM signal
takes control of gate transitions. A rising edge on PWM
initiates the turn-off of the lower MOSFET (see Timing
Diagram). After a short propagation delay [TPDLLGATE], the
lower gate begins to fall. Typical fall times [TFLGATE] are
provided in the Electrical Specifications section. Adaptive
shoot-through circuitry monitors the LGATE voltage and
determines the upper gate delay time [TPDHUGATE] based
on how quickly the LGATE voltage drops below 1.0V. This
prevents both the lower and upper MOSFETs from
conducting simultaneously or shoot-through. Once this delay
period is complete the upper gate drive begins to rise
[TRUGATE] and the upper MOSFET turns on.

HIP6601, HIP6603
A falling transition on PWM indicates the turn-off of the upper
MOSFET and the turn-on of the lower MOSFET. A short
propagation delay [TPDLUGATE] is encountered before the
upper gate begins to fall [TFUGATE]. Again, the adaptive
shoot-through circuitry determines the lower gate delay time,
TPDHLGATE. The PHASE voltage is monitored and the lower
gate is allowed to rise after PHASE drops below 0.5V. The
lower gate then rises [TRLGATE], turning on the lower
MOSFET.
Three-State PWM Input
A unique feature of the HIP660X drivers is the addition of a
shutdown window to the PWM input. If the PWM signal
enters and remains within the shutdown window for a set
holdoff time, the output drivers are disabled and both
MOSFET gates are pulled and held low. The shutdown state
is removed when the PWM signal moves outside the
shutdown window. Otherwise, the PWM rising and falling
thresholds outlined in the ELECTRICAL SPECIFICATIONS
determine when the lower and upper gates are enabled.
Adaptive Shoot-Through Protection
Both drivers incorporate adaptive shoot-through protection
to prevent upper and lower MOSFETs from conducting
simultaneously and shorting the input supply. This is
accomplished by ensuring the falling gate has turned off one
MOSFET before the other is allowed to rise.
During turn-off of the lower MOSFET, the LGATE voltage is
monitored until it reaches a 1.0V threshold, at which time the
UGATE is released to rise. Adaptive shoot-through circuitry
monitors the PHASE voltage during UGATE turn-off. Once
PHASE has dropped below a threshold of 0.5V, the LGATE
is allowed to rise. PHASE continues to be monitored during
the lower gate rise time. If the PHASE voltage exceeds the
0.5V threshold during this period and remains high for longer
than 2µs, the LGATE transitions low. Both upper and lower
gates are then held low until the next rising edge of the PWM
signal.
Power-On Reset (POR) Function
During initial startup, the VCC voltage rise is monitored and
gate drives are held low until a typical VCC rising threshold
of 9.9V is reached. Once the rising VCC threshold is
exceeded, the PWM input signal takes control of the gate
drives. If VCC drops below a typical VCC falling threshold of
9.1V during operation, then both gate drives are again held
low. This condition persists until the VCC voltage exceeds
the VCC rising threshold.
Internal Bootstrap Device
Both drivers feature an internal bootstrap device. Simply
adding an external capacitor across the BOOT and PHASE
pins completes the bootstrap circuit.
5
The bootstrap capacitor must have a maximum voltage
rating above VCC + 5V. The bootstrap capacitor can be
chosen from the following equation:
Q GATE
C BOOT ≥ -----------------------∆V BOOT
Where QGATE is the amount of gate charge required to fully
charge the gate of the upper MOSFET. The ∆VBOOT term is
defined as the allowable droop in the rail of the upper drive.
As an example, suppose a HUF76139 is chosen as the
upper MOSFET. The gate charge, QGATE , from the data
sheet is 65nC for a 10V upper gate drive. We will assume a
200mV droop in drive voltage over the PWM cycle. We find
that a bootstrap capacitance of at least 0.325µF is required.
The next larger standard value capacitance is 0.33µF.
Gate Drive Voltage Versatility
The HIP6601 and HIP6603 provide the user total flexibility in
choosing the gate drive voltage. The HIP6601 lower gate
drive is fixed to VCC [+12V], but the upper drive rail can
range from 12V down to 5V depending on what voltage is
applied to PVCC. The HIP6603 ties the upper and lower
drive rails together. Simply applying a voltage from 5V up to
12V on PVCC will set both driver rail voltages.
Power Dissipation
Package power dissipation is mainly a function of the
switching frequency and total gate charge of the selected
MOSFETs. Calculating the power dissipation in the driver for
a desired application is critical to ensuring safe operation.
Exceeding the maximum allowable power dissipation level
will push the IC beyond the maximum recommended
operating junction temperature of 125oC. The maximum
allowable IC power dissipation for the SO8 package is
approximately 800mW. When designing the driver into an
application, it is recommended that the following calculation
be performed to ensure safe operation at the desired
frequency for the selected MOSFETs. The power dissipated
by the driver is approximated as:
3
P = 1.05f sw  --- V U Q + V L Q  + I DDQ V
2
L
CC
U
where fsw is the switching frequency of the PWM signal. VU
and VL represent the upper and lower gate rail voltage. QU
and QL is the upper and lower gate charge determined by
MOSFET selection and any external capacitance added to
the gate pins. The IDDQ VCC product is the quiescent power
of the driver and is typically 30mW.
The power dissipation approximation is a result of power
transferred to and from the upper and lower gates. But, the
internal bootstrap device also dissipates power on-chip
during the refresh cycle. Expressing this power in terms of
the upper MOSFET total gate charge is explained below.
HIP6601, HIP6603

PVCC = VCC = 12V

POWER (mW)
The bootstrap device conducts when the lower MOSFET or
it’s body diode conducts and pulls the PHASE node toward
GND. While the bootstrap device conducts, a current path is
formed that refreshes the bootstrap capacitor. Since the
upper gate is driving a MOSFET, the charge removed from
the bootstrap capacitor is equivalent to the total gate charge
of the MOSFET. Therefore, the refresh power required by the
bootstrap capacitor is equivalent to the power used to
charge the gate capacitance of the MOSFET.

The 1.05 factor is a correction factor derived from the
following characterization. The base circuit for characterizing
the drivers for different loading profiles and frequencies is
provided. CU and CL are the upper and lower gate load
capacitors. Decoupling capacitors [0.15µF] are added to the
PVCC and VCC pins. The bootstrap capacitor value is
0.01µF.
Figure 2 shows the dissipation in the driver with 3nF loading
on both gates and each individually. Note the higher upper
gate power dissipation which is due to the bootstrap device
refresh cycle. Again PVCC and VCC are tied together and to
a +12V supply.
