Using a design that inherently minimizes shoot-through current, UCC2752x is capable of delivering high-peak current pulses of up to 5-A source and 5-A sink into capacitive loads along with rail-to-rail drive capability and extremely small propagation delay typically 13 ns. In addition, the drivers feature matched internal propagation delays between the two channels which are very well suited for applications requiring dual-gate drives with critical timing, such as synchronous rectifiers. This also enables connecting two channels in parallel to effectively increase current drive capability or driving two switches in parallel with a single input signal. The input pin thresholds are based on TTL and CMOS compatible low-voltage logic, which is fixed and independent of the VDD supply voltage. Wide hysteresis between the high and low thresholds offers excellent noise immunity.

Texas Instruments recommends that all integrated circuits be handled with appropriate precautions. Failure to observe proper handling and installation procedures can cause damage. ESD damage can range from subtle performance degradation to complete device failure. Precision integrated circuits may be more susceptible to damage because very small parametric changes could cause the device not to meet its published specifications. DESCRIPTION (CONT.) The UCC2752x family provide the combination of three standard logic options - dual-inverting, dual-non inverting, one inverting and one non-inverting driver. UCC27526 features a dual input design which offers flexibility of both inverting (IN- pin) and non-inverting (IN+ pin) configuration for each channel. Either IN+ or IN- pin can be used to control the state of the driver output. The unused input pin can be used for enable and disable functions. For safety purpose, internal pull-up and Pull-down resistors on the input pins of all the devices in UCC2752x family in order to ensure that outputs are held LOW when input pins are in floating condition. UCC27323, UCC27324 and UCC27325 feature an Enable pins (ENA and ENB) to have better control of the operation of the driver applications. The pins are internally pulled up to VDD for active high logic and can be left open for standard operation. UCC2752x family of devices are available in SOIC-8 (D), MSOP-8 with exposed pad (DGN) and 3-mm x 3-mm WSON-8 with exposed pad (DSD) packages. UCC27524 is also offered in PDIP-8 (P) package. UCC27526 is only offered in 3-mm x 3-mm WSON (DSD) package.

In order to effect fast switching of power devices and reduce associated switching power losses, a powerful gate driver device can be employed between the PWM output of control devices and the gates of the power semiconductor devices. Further, gate driver devices are indispensable when sometimes it is just not feasible to have the PWM controller device directly drive the gates of the switching devices. With advent of digital power, this situation will be often encountered since the PWM signal from the digital controller is often a 3.3-V logic signal which is not capable of effectively turning on a power switch. A level shifting circuitry is needed to boost the 3.3-V signal to the gate-drive voltage (such as 12 V) in order to fully turn on the power device and minimize conduction losses. Traditional buffer drive circuits based on NPN/PNP bipolar transistors in totem-pole arrangement, being emitter follower configurations, prove inadequate with digital power since they lack level-shifting capability. Gate driver devices effectively combine both the level-shifting and buffer drive functions. Gate driver devices also find other needs such as minimizing the effect of high-frequency switching noise by locating the high-current driver physically close to the power switch, driving gate drive transformers and controlling floating power device gates, reducing power dissipation and thermal stress in controller devices by moving gate charge power losses into itself etc. Finally, emerging wide band-gap power device technologies such as GaN based switches, which are capable of supporting very high switching frequency operation, are driving special requirements in terms of gate drive capability. These requirements include operation at low VDD voltages (5 V or lower), low propagation delays, tight delay matching and availability in compact, low-inductance packages with good thermal capability. In summary Gate-driver devices are an extremely important component in switching power combining benefits of high performance, low cost, component count, board-space reduction and simplified system design.

Table 3.

When VDD is rising and the level is still below UVLO threshold, this circuit holds the output LOW, regardless of the status of the inputs. The UVLO is typically 4.25 V with 350-mV typical hysteresis. This hysteresis helps prevent chatter when low VDD supply voltages have noise from the power supply and also when there are droops in the VDD bias voltage when the system commences switching and there is a sudden increase in IDD. The capability to operate at low voltage levels such as below 5 V, along with best in class switching characteristics, is especially suited for driving emerging GaN power semiconductor devices. For example, at power-up, the UCC2752x driver-device output remains LOW until the VDD voltage reaches the UVLO threshold if Enable pin is active or floating. The magnitude of the OUT signal rises with VDD until steadystate VDD is reached. The non-inverting operation in Figure 30 shows that the output remains LOW until the UVLO threshold is reached, and then the output is in-phase with the input. The inverting operation in Figure 31 shows that the output remains LOW until the UVLO threshold is reached, and then the output is out-phase with the input. With UCC27526 the output turns to high state only if INX+ is high and INX- is low after the UVLO threshold is reached. Since the device draws current from the VDD pin to bias all internal circuits, for the best high-speed circuit performance, two VDD bypass capacitors are recommended to prevent noise problems. The use of surface mount components is highly recommended. A 0.1-μF ceramic capacitor should be located as close as possible to the VDD to GND pins of the gate-driver device. In addition, a larger capacitor (such as 1-μF) with relatively low ESR should be connected in parallel and close proximity, in order to help deliver the high-current peaks required by the load. The parallel combination of capacitors should present a low impedance characteristic for the expected current levels and switching frequencies in the application.

Power-Up Inverting Driver Operating Supply Current The UCC2752x products feature very low quiescent IDD currents. The typical operating supply current in Under Voltage Lock-Out (UVLO) state and fully-on state (under static and switching conditions) are summarized in Figure 10, Figure 11 and Figure 12. The IDD current when the device is fully on and outputs are in a static state (DC high or DC low, refer Figure 11) represents lowest quiescent IDD current when all the internal logic circuits of the device are fully operational. The total supply current is the sum of the quiescent IDD current, the average IOUT current due to switching and finally any current related to pull-up resistors on the enable pins and inverting input pins. For example when the inverting Input pins are pulled low additional current is drawn from VDD supply through the pull-up resistors (refer to Figure 6 though Figure 9). Knowing the operating frequency (fSW) and the MOSFET gate (QG) charge at the drive voltage being used, the average IOUT current can be calculated as product of QG and fSW. A complete characterization of the IDD current as a function of switching frequency at different VDD bias voltages under 1.8-nF switching load in both channels is provided in Figure 22. The strikingly linear variation and close correlation with theoretical value of average IOUT indicates negligible shoot-through inside the gate-driver device attesting to its high-speed characteristics.

With typically high threshold = 2.1 V and typically low threshold = 1.2 V, the logic level thresholds can be conveniently driven with PWM control signals derived from 3.3-V and 5-V digital power controller devices. Wider hysteresis (typ 0.9 V) offers enhanced noise immunity compared to traditional TTL logic implementations, where the hysteresis is typically less than 0.5 V. UCC2752x devices also feature tight control of the input pin threshold voltage levels which eases system design considerations and ensures stable operation across temperature (refer to Figure 14). The very low input capacitance on these pins reduces loading and increases switching speed. The UCC2752x devices feature an important safety feature wherein, whenever any of the input pins is in a floating condition, the output of the respective channel is held in the low state. This is achieved using VDD pull-up resistors on all the Inverting inputs (INA, INB in UCC27523, INA in UCC27525 and INA-, INB- in UCC27526) or GND pull-down resistors on all the non-inverting input pins (INA, INB in UCC27524, INB in UCC27525 and INA+, INB+ in UCC27526), as shown in the device block diagrams. While UCC27523/4/5 devices feature one input pin per channel, the UCC27526 features a dual input configuration with two input pins available to control the output state of each channel. With the UCC27526 device the user has the flexibility to drive each channel using either a non-inverting input pin (INx+) or an inverting input pin (INx-). The state of the output pin is dependent on the bias on both the INx+ and INx- pins (where x = A, B). Once an Input pin has been chosen to drive a channel, the other input pin of that channel (the unused input pin) must be properly biased in order to enable the output of the channel. The unused input pin cannot remain in a floating condition because, as mentioned earlier, whenever any input pin is left in a floating condition, the output of that channel is disabled using the internal pull-up/down resistors for safety purposes. Alternatively, the unused input pin can effectively be used to implement an enable/disable function, as explained below. • In order to drive the channel x (x = A or B) in a non-inverting configuration, apply the PWM control input signal to INx+ pin. In this case, the unused input pin, INx-, must be biased low (eg. tied to GND) in order to enable the output of this channel. – Alternately, the INx- pin can be used to implement the enable/disable function using an external logic signal. OUTx is disabled when INx- is biased High and OUTx is enabled when INX- is biased low. • In order to drive the channel x (x = A or B) in an Inverting configuration, apply the PWM control input signal to INX- pin. In this case, the unused input pin, INX+, must be biased high (eg. tied to VDD) in order to enable the output of the channel. – Alternately, the INX+ pin can be used to implement the enable/disable function using an external logic signal. OUTX is disabled when INX+ is biased low and OUTX is enabled when INX+ is biased high. • Finally, it is worth noting that the UCC27526 output pin can be driven into high state only when INx+ pin is biased high and INx- input is biased low. Refer to the input/output logic truth table and typical application diagram, (Figure 28 and Figure 29), for additional clarification. The input stage of each driver should be driven by a signal with a short rise or fall time. This condition is satisfied in typical power supply applications, where the input signals are provided by a PWM controller or logic gates with fast transition times (<200 ns) with a slow changing input voltage, the output of the driver may switch repeatedly at a high frequency. While the wide hysteresis offered in UCC2752x definitely alleviates this concern over most other TTL input threshold devices, extra care is necessary in these implementations. If limiting the rise or fall times to the power device is the primary goal, then an external resistance is highly recommended between the output of the driver and the power device. This external resistor has the additional benefit of reducing part of the gate charge related power dissipation in the gate driver device package and transferring it into the external resistor itself. 18 Submit Documentation Feedback Copyright © 2011–2012, Texas Instruments Incorporated Product Folder Link(s): UCC27523, UCC27524, UCC27525, UCC27526 UCC27523, UCC27524, UCC27525, UCC27526 www.ti.com SLUSAQ3E – NOVEMBER 2011 – REVISED JUNE 2012 Enable Function The enable function is an extremely beneficial feature in gate driver devices especially for certain applications such as synchronous rectification where the driver outputs can be disabled in light-load conditions to prevent negative current circulation and to improve light-load efficiency. UCC27523/4/5 devices are provided with independent enable pins ENx for exclusive control of each driver channel operation. The enable pins are based on a non-inverting configuration (active high operation). Thus when ENx pins are driven high the drivers are enabled and when ENx pins are driven low the drivers are disabled. Like the input pins, the enable pins are also based on a TTL/CMOS compatible input threshold logic that is independent of the supply voltage and can be effectively controlled using logic signals from 3.3-V and 5-V microcontrollers. The UCC2752X devices also feature tight control of the Enable function threshold voltage levels which eases system design considerations and ensures stable operation across temperature (refer to Figure 15). The ENx pins are internally pulled up to VDD using pull-up resistors as a result of which the outputs of the device are enabled in the default state. Hence the ENx pins can be left floating or Not Connected (N/C) for standard operation, where the enable feature is not needed. Essentially, this allows the UCC27523/4/5 devices to be pinto-pin compatible with TI’s previous generation drivers UCC27323/4/5 respectively, where pins #1, 8 are N/C pins. If the channel A and Channel B inputs and outputs are connected in parallel to increase the driver current capacity, ENA and ENB should be connected and driven together. The UCC27526 device does not feature dedicated enable pins. However, as mentioned earlier, an enable/disable function can be easily implemented in UCC27526 using the unused input pin. When INx+ is pulled-down to GND or INx- is pulled-down to VDD, the output is disabled. Thus INx+ pin can be used like an enable pin that is based on active high logic, while INx- can be used like an enable pin that is based on active low logic. It is important to note that while the ENA, ENB pins in UCC27523/4/5 are allowed to be in floating condition during standard operation and the outputs will be enabled, the INx+, INx- pins in UCC27526 are not allowed to be floating since this will disable the outputs.

The output stage pull-up structure features a P-Channel MOSFET and an additional N-Channel MOSFET in parallel. The function of the N-Channel MOSFET is to provide a brief boost in the peak sourcing current enabling fast turn-on. This is accomplished by briefly turning-on on the N-Channel MOSFET during a narrow instant when the output is changing state from Low to High. VCC ROH RNMOS, Pull Up Input Signal Anti ShootThrough Circuitry Gate Voltage Boost OUT Narrow Pulse at each Turn On ROL Figure 32. UCC2752X Gate Driver Output Structure The ROH parameter (see ELECTRICAL CHARACTERISTICS) is a DC measurement and it is representative of the on-resistance of the P-Channel device only. This is because the N-Channel device is held in the off state in DC condition and is turned-on only for a narrow instant when output changes state from low to high. Thus it should be noted that effective resistance of UCC2752x pull-up stage during turn-on instant is much lower than what is represented by ROH parameter. The pull-down structure in UCC2752x is simply composed of a N-Channel MOSFET. The ROL parameter (see ELECTRICAL CHARACTERISTICS), which is also a DC measurement, is representative of the impedance of the pull-down stage in the device. In UCC2752x, the effective resistance of the hybrid pull-up structure during turn-on is estimated to be approximately 1.5 x ROL, estimated based on design considerations. Each output stage in UCC2752x is capable of supplying 5-A peak source and 5-A peak sink current pulses. The output voltage swings between VDD and GND providing rail-to-rail operation, thanks to the MOS output stage which delivers very low drop-out. The presence of the MOSFET body diodes also offers low impedance to switching overshoots and undershoots. This means that in many cases, external Schottky diode clamps may be eliminated. The outputs of these drivers are designed to withstand 500-mA reverse current without either damage to the device or logic malfunction. The UCC2752x devices are particularly suited for dual-polarity, symmetrical drive gate transformer applications where the primary winding of transformer driven by OUTA and OUTB, with inputs INA and INB being driven complementary to each other. This is due to the extremely low drop-out offered by the MOS output stage of these devices, both during high (VOH) and low (VOL) states along with the low impedance of the driver output stage, all of which allow alleviate concerns regarding transformer demagnetization and flux imbalance. The low propagation delays also ensure accurate reset for high-frequency applications. For applications that have zero voltage switching during power MOSFET turn-on or turn-off interval, the driver supplies high-peak current for fast switching even though the miller plateau is not present. This situation often occurs in synchronous rectifier applications because the body diode is generally conducting before power MOSFET is switched on. 20 Submit Documentation Feedback Copyright © 2011–2012, Texas Instruments Incorporated Product Folder Link(s): UCC27523, UCC27524, UCC27525, UCC27526 UCC27523, UCC27524, UCC27525, UCC27526 www.ti.com SLUSAQ3E – NOVEMBER 2011 – REVISED JUNE 2012 Low Propagation Delays and Tightly Matched Outputs The UCC2752x driver devices feature a best in class, 13-ns (typical) propagation delay between input and output which goes to offer the lowest level of pulse transmission distortion available in the industry for high frequency switching applications. For example in synchronous rectifier applications, the SR MOSFETs can be driven with very low distortion when a single driver device is used to drive both the SR MOSFETs. Further, the driver devices also feature an extremely accurate, 1-ns (typ) matched internal propagation delays between the two channels which is beneficial for applications requiring dual gate drives with critical timing. For example in a PFC application, a pair of paralleled MOSFETs may be driven independently using each output channel, which the inputs of both channels are driven by a common control signal from the PFC controller device. In this case the 1ns delay matching ensures that the paralleled MOSFETs are driven in a simultaneous fashion with the minimum of turn-on delay difference. Yet another benefit of the tight matching between the two channels is that the two channels can be connected together to effectively increase current drive capability i.e. A and B channels may be combined into a single driver by connecting the INA and INB inputs together and the OUTA and OUTB outputs together. Then, a single signal can control the paralleled combination. Caution must be exercised when directly connecting OUTA and OUTB pins together since there is the possibility that any delay between the two channels during turn-on or turn-off may result in shoot-through current conduction as shown in Figure 33. While the two channels are inherently very well matched (4-ns Max propagation delay), it should be noted that there may be differences in the input threshold voltage level between the two channels which can cause the delay between the two outputs especially when slow dV/dt input signals are employed. The following guidelines are recommended whenever the two driver channels are paralleled using direct connections between OUTA and OUTB along with INA and INB: • Use very fast dV/dt input signals (20 V/µs or greater) on INA and INB pins to minimize impact of differences in input thresholds causing delays between the channels. • INA and INB connections must be made as close to the device pins as possible. Wherever possible, a safe practice would be to add an option in the design to have gate resistors in series with OUTA and OUTB. This allows the option to use 0-Ω resistors for paralleling outputs directly or to add appropriate series resistances to limit shoot-through current, should it become necessary.

High peak current is required to turn the device ON quickly. Then, to turn the device OFF, the driver is required to sink a similar amount of current to ground. This repeats at the operating frequency of the power device. The power dissipated in the gate driver device package depends on the following factors: • Gate charge required of the power MOSFET (usually a function of the drive voltage VGS, which is very close to input bias supply voltage VDD due to low VOH drop-out) • Switching frequency • Use of external gate resistors Since UCC2752x features very low quiescent currents and internal logic to eliminate any shoot-through in the output driver stage, their effect on the power dissipation within the gate driver can be safely assumed to be negligible. When a driver device is tested with a discrete, capacitive load it is a fairly simple matter to calculate the power that is required from the bias supply. The energy that must be transferred from the bias supply to charge the capacitor is given by: 1 EG = CLOAD VDD2 2 (1) where is load capacitor and is bias voltage feeding the driver. There is an equal amount of energy dissipated when the capacitor is charged. This leads to a total power loss given by the following: PG = CLOAD VDD2 fSW (2) where fSW is the switching frequency. With VDD = 12 V, CLOAD = 10 nF and ƒSW = 300 kHz the power loss can be calculated as: PG = 10nF ´ 12 V 2 ´ 300kHz = 0.432 W Copyright © 2011–2012, Texas Instruments Incorporated (3) Submit Documentation Feedback Product Folder Link(s): UCC27523, UCC27524, UCC27525, UCC27526 23 UCC27523, UCC27524, UCC27525, UCC27526 SLUSAQ3E – NOVEMBER 2011 – REVISED JUNE 2012 www.ti.com The switching load presented by a power MOSFET can be converted to an equivalent capacitance by examining the gate charge required to switch the device. This gate charge includes the effects of the input capacitance plus the added charge needed to swing the drain voltage of the power device as it switches between the ON and OFF states. Most manufacturers provide specifications that provide the typical and maximum gate charge, in nC, to switch the device under specified conditions. Using the gate charge Qg, one can determine the power that must be dissipated when charging a capacitor. This is done by using the equivalence Qg = CLOADVDD to provide the following equation for power: PG = CLOAD VDD2 fSW = Qg VDD fSW (4) Assuming that UCC2752x is driving power MOSFET with 60 nC of gate charge (Qg = 60 nC at VDD = 12 V) on each output, the gate charge related power loss can be calculated as: PG = 2 x 60nC ´ 12 V ´ 300kHz = 0.432 W (5) This power PG is dissipated in the resistive elements of the circuit when the MOSFET is being turned-on or off. Half of the total power is dissipated when the load capacitor is charged during turn-on, and the other half is dissipated when the load capacitor is discharged during turn-off. When no external gate resistor is employed between the driver and MOSFET/IGBT, this power is completely dissipated inside the driver package. With the use of external gate drive resistors, the power dissipation is shared between the internal resistance of driver and external gate resistor in accordance to the ratio of the resistances (more power dissipated in the higher resistance component). Based on this simplified analysis, the driver power dissipation during switching is calculated as follows: æ ö ROFF RON PSW = QG ´ VDD ´ fSW ´ ç + ÷ è ROFF + RGATE RON + RGATE ø (6) where ROFF = ROL and RON (effective resistance of pull-up structure) = 1.5 x ROL. In addition to the above gate charge related power dissipation, additional dissipation in the driver is related to the power associated with the quiescent bias current consumed by the device to bias all internal circuits such as input stage (with pull-up and pull-down resistors), enable, and UVLO sections. Referring to the Figure 11 it can be seen that the quiescent current is less than 0.6 mA even in the highest case. The quiescent power dissipation can be simply calculated as: PQ = IDD VDD (7) Assuming , IDD = 6 mA, the power loss is: PQ = 0.6 mA ´ 12 V = 7.2mW (8) Clearly, this is insignificant compared to gate charge related power dissipation calculated earlier. With a 12-V supply, the bias current can be estimated as follows, with an additional 0.6-mA overhead for the quiescent consumption: P 0.432 W IDD ~ G = = 0.036 A VDD 12 V (9) 24 Submit Documentation Feedback Copyright © 2011–2012, Texas Instruments Incorporated Product Folder Link(s): UCC27523, UCC27524, UCC27525, UCC27526 UCC27523, UCC27524, UCC27525, UCC27526 www.ti.com SLUSAQ3E – NOVEMBER 2011 – REVISED JUNE 2012 Thermal Information The useful range of a driver is greatly affected by the drive power requirements of the load and the thermal characteristics of the device package. In order for a gate driver device to be useful over a particular temperature range the package must allow for the efficient removal of the heat produced while keeping the junction temperature within rated limits.

Among the different package options available in the UCC2752x family, of particular mention are the DSD & DGN packages when it comes to power dissipation capability. The MSOP PowerPAD-8 (DGN) package and 3mm x 3-mm WSON (DSD) package offer a means of removing the heat from the semiconductor junction through the bottom of the package. Both these packages offer an exposed thermal pad at the base of the package. This pad is soldered to the copper on the printed circuit board directly underneath the device package, reducing the thermal resistance to a very low value. This allows a significant improvement in heat-sinking over that available in the D or P packages. The printed circuit board must be designed with thermal lands and thermal vias to complete the heat removal subsystem. Note that the exposed pads in the MSOP-8 (PowerPAD™) and WSON-8 packages are not directly connected to any leads of the package. However, it is electrically and thermally connected to the substrate of the device which is the ground of the device. It is recommended to externally connect the exposed pads to GND in PCB layout for better EMI immunity.

The UCC27523/4/5/6 family of gate drivers incorporates short propagation delays and powerful output stages capable of delivering large current peaks with very fast rise and fall times at the gate of power MOSFET to facilitate voltage transitions very quickly. At higher VDD voltages, the peak current capability is even higher (5-A peak current is at VDD = 12 V). Very high di/dt can cause unacceptable ringing if the trace lengths and impedances are not well controlled. The following circuit layout guidelines are strongly recommended when designing with these high-speed drivers. • Locate the driver device as close as possible to power device in order to minimize the length of high-current traces between the Output pins and the Gate of the power device. • Locate the VDD bypass capacitors between VDD and GND as close as possible to the driver with minimal trace length to improve the noise filtering. These capacitors support high peak current being drawn from VDD during turn-on of power MOSFET. The use of low inductance SMD components such as chip resistors and chip capacitors is highly recommended. • The turn-on and turn-off current loop paths (driver device, power MOSFET and VDD bypass capacitor) should be minimized as much as possible in order to keep the stray inductance to a minimum. High dI/dt is established in these loops at 2 instances – during turn-on and turn-off transients, which will induce significant voltage transients on the output pin of the driver device and Gate of the power MOSFET. • Wherever possible parallel the source and return traces, taking advantage of flux cancellation • Separate power traces and signal traces, such as output and input signals. • Star-point grounding is a good way to minimize noise coupling from one current loop to another. The GND of the driver should be connected to the other circuit nodes such as source of power MOSFET, ground of PWM controller etc at one, single point. The connected paths should be as short as possible to reduce inductance and be as wide as possible to reduce resistance. • Use a ground plane to provide noise shielding. Fast rise and fall times at OUT may corrupt the input signals during transition. The ground plane must not be a conduction path for any current loop. Instead the ground plane must be connected to the star-point with one single trace to establish the ground potential. In addition to noise shielding, the ground plane can help in power dissipation as well • In noisy environments, it may be necessary to tie inputs of an unused channel of UCC27526 to VDD (in case of INx+) or GND (in case of INX-) using short traces in order to ensure that the output is enabled and to prevent noise from causing malfunction in the output. • Exercise caution when replacing the UCC2732x/UCC2742x devices with the UCC2752x: – UCC2752x is a much stronger gate driver (5-A peak current versus 4-A peak current). – UCC2752x is a much faster gate driver (13-ns/13-ns rise/fall propagation delay versus 25-ns/35-ns rise/fall propagation delay). 26 Submit Documentation Feedback Copyright © 2011–2012, Texas Instruments Incorporated Product Folder Link(s): UCC27523, UCC27524,
