1 Introduction
The gate driver evaluation board EVAL_1ED020I12-BT was developed to show the functionalities and
key features of the Infineon IGBT gate driver 1ED020I12-BT (also applied to 1ED020I12-FT).
The board is available from Infineon in sampling quantities. The properties of this part are described
in the datasheet chapter of this document, whereas the remaining paragraphs provide information
intended to enable the customer to copy, modify and qualify the design for production, according to
their own specific requirements.
The design of the EVAL_1ED020I12-BT was performed with respect to the environmental
conditions described in this document. The design was tested as described in this document, but
not qualified regarding manufacturing, lifetime or over the full ambient operating conditions.
The boards provided by Infineon are subjected to functional testing only.
Due to their purpose Evaluation Boards are not subjected to the same procedures regarding Returned
Material Analysis (RMA), Process Change Notification (PCN) and Product Discontinuation (PD)
as regular products. These Evaluation Boards are used for development support only and should not
be used as reference design for volume production.

3 Electrical features
3.1
Supply voltages +5V and +15V
The supply voltage for the digital part (+5V VCC1) and for the driver output (+15V VCC2) has to be
supplied externally over the dedicated connectors. The evaluation board does not provide an over
voltage supply monitoring, therefore the user has to ensure that the voltages are in the correct range.
Voltages above the max values will lead to damages of the IGBT drivers. The availability of the supply
voltages is visible over the green status LEDs.
The gate driver output of the 1ED020I12-BT is supplied with +15V (VCC2) and -7V (VEE2) by an
isolated DC/DC-power supply which is integrated in the evaluation board. The negative supply at
VEE2 prevents a parasitic turn on of the gate by switching on the opposite IGBT. The use of the
negative voltage makes the clamp “Active Miller Clamp” functionality unnecessary.
3.2
Under voltage lockout
The +15V supply VCC2 is monitored by the 1ED020I12-BT. In case of an undervoltage of <13V at
VCC2 the driver output is switched off. This status is visible over the yellow READY LEDs for top and
bottom side. If the LED is on, the supply at VCC2 is >13V
3.3
VCEsat monitoring for short circuit detection
The Infineon gate driver 1ED020I12-BT provides a short circuit detection by measuring the VCEsat
voltage of the IGBT. If a short circuit occurs, the collector current and the saturation voltage increase.
If the IGBT is commanded on stated and the VCE reaches 9V a short circuit is detected and the gate
driver output is switched off. This status is reported by the /FLT signal and the dedicated FAULT LED
is switched on.
Figure 3-1 shows the signals of the bottom side driver and IGBT during a shoot through.

The FAULT status is latched by the 1ED020I12-BT and must be resetted by switching the RESET
Signal to ground.

3.4
Two level turn-off
The Two Level Turn-Off functionality introduces a second voltage level at the driver output in between
ON- and OFF-level. This ensures lower VCE overshoots at turn off by reducing the VGE of the IGBT at
short circuits or over current events.
The reference voltage level and hold up time can be adjusted at pin TLSET of the 1ED020I12-BT.
The reference voltage is set by the Zener diodes D7T and D7B. The holdup time is set by the
capacitance connected between pin TLSET and Gnd2.
Figure 3-2 the components connected to pin TLSET of the 1ED020I12-BT bottom
In this case, the second voltage level is set to 10V by the Zener diodes and the holdup time is
approximately 2.4µs with a capacitance of 47pF at pin TLEST. For more detailed information please
refer to the datasheet of the 1ED020I12-BT available on the Infineon webpage.
Figure 3-3 shows the discharging and charging of the external capacitor C7B to set up the two level
turn-off.

It is visible that there is second voltage level at the VGE_bot during turn-off. This level has the same
values like the signal at pin TLSET with 10V and ~2.4µs.
3.5
IGBT turn - on / off
The switching characteristic of the IGBTs is defined by the gate resistors RG1B, RG1T, RG2B and
RG2T.

Figure 3-4 bottom side driver output
The gate resistors are adapted to the Infineon IGBT IKW25N120H3 to get signals with less oscillation
as possible by keeping a fast slope at the output. There is the possibility to adapt the switching
characteristic to specific applications or to different IGBTs by replacing the values of RG1B and RG1T.
The use of RG2B and RG2T together with DG1B and DG1T makes it possible to change the onswitching and the off-switching slopes of the IGBT independent to each other.
To avoid a shoot through between top- and bottom IGBT, the operator needs ensure sufficient dead
time. With this setup the dead time should be > 1.5µs.

DC-Link capacitor
Due to the available space there is only a small DC-Link capacitor of 220nF available. If a bigger DCLink capacity is necessary it has to be connected externally to the connectors V+HV and GND_HV.
3.7
Input PWM-Signals
The PWM input pins of the 1ED020I12-BT can be configured in non-inverting input logic or inverting
input logic.
 IN+ Non Inverting Driver Input
IN+ control signal for the driver output if IN- is set to low, e.g. the IGBT is on if IN+ = high and
IN- = low
 IN- Inverting Driver Input
IN- control signal for the driver output if IN+ is set to high, e.g. the IGBT is on if IN- = low and
IN+ = high
The EVAL_1ED020I12-BT is designed in that way, that the non-inverting input is used. There is the
possibility to use also the inverting input logic by replace RIN1T, RIN1B and RP1T and RP1B.
Figure 3-9 bottom side driver input
There is also the possibility to use low pass filters inside the PWM input signals to avoid a undesired
switch on an IGBT by disturbances. This feature is not used in this evaluation board, but there is the
possibility to test it by changing the resistors RIN1T, RIN1B, RIN2T, RIN2B and the capacitors CIN1T,
CIN1B, CIN2T, CIN2B.
