UC1727 UC2727 UC3727 Isolated High Side IGBT Driver FEATURES DESCRIPTION • Receives Power and Signal from Single Isolation Transformer • Generates Split Rail for 4A Peak Bipolar Gate Drive • The UC1727 and its companion chip, the UC1726, provide all the necessary features to drive an isolated IGBT transistor from a TTL input signal. A unique modulation scheme is used to transmit both power and signal across an isolation boundary with a minimum of external components. 16V High Level Gate Drive • Low Level Gate Drive more Negative than -5V • Undervoltage Lockout • Desaturation Detection and Fault Processing • Separate Output Enable Input The chip generates a bipolar supply so that the gate can be driven to a negative voltage insuring the IGBT remains off in the presence of high common mode slew rates. • Programmable Stepped Gate Drive for Soft Turn On Uses include isolated off-line full bridge and half bridge drives for motors, switches, and any other load requiring full electrical isolation. • Programmable Stepped Gate Drive for Soft Fault Protection features include under voltage lockout and desaturation detection. High level gate drive signals are typically 16V. Intermediate high drive levels can be programmed for various periods of time to limit surge current at turn on and in the event of desaturation due to a short circuit.

APPLICATION INFORMATION Figure 1 shows the rectification and detection scheme used in the UC1727 to derive both power and signal information from the input waveform. VCC-VEE is generated by peak detecting the input signal via the internal bridge rectifier and storing it on external capacitors. COM is generated by an internal amplifier that maintains PVCC-COM = 16.5V. Signal detection is performed by the internal hysteresis comparator which senses the polarity of the input signal as shown in Figure 2. This is accomplished by setting (or resetting) the comparator only if the input signal exceeds 0.95VCC-VEE. In some cases it may be necessary to add a damping resistor across the transformer secondary to minimize ringing and eliminate false triggering of the hysteresis comparator as shown in Figure 3.

Output Pulsing Caused By Transformer Ringing Figure 5. Transient Desaturation Response GATE DRIVE WAVEFORM In the event that desaturation is detected outside the blanking interval, OUT will be driven back to the CLAMP plateau for a fault time set by a resistor from FRC to VCC and a capacitor to COM as: The rising edge of OUT can be programmed for a two step sequence as shown in Figure 4. The plateau voltage is programmed by a resistive divider from VCC to COM applied at CLAMP. CLAMP must be bypassed to COM. The plateau voltage is approximately OUT = CLAMP. The plateau time is set by a resistor from TRC to VCC and a capacitor to COM as: R−7.6k Tf = RC ln . R−12.4k If the event is transient, OUT will return high at the end of Tf as shown in Figure 5. During Tf, FRPLY is open. After Tf, FRPLY is connected to COM. R−7.6k Tp = RC ln . R−12.4k TRC also programs a blanking time during which the chip ignores the desaturation comparator. The blanking time is: Desaturation shown in Figure 6 that persists longer than Tf will cause OUT to be driven low. The chip will not accept a command to drive OUT high for a delay period of Td = 0.4RC Tb = Tp + 0.4RC. FRPLY will be open during this entire period. 5 UC1727 UC2727 UC3727 EXTERNAL BIPOLAR SUPPLIES If it is desired to drive an emitter grounded IGBT from external supplies, the configuration in Figure 8 should be used. COM should never be connected to ground. VCC must be ≥ 12V and VCC-VEE must be ≥ 23.5V. Figure 6. Desaturation Response ENABLE ENBL provides an alternate means of controlling the output. If ENBL is used as the primary input, B must be connected to VCC and A to VEE. ENBL can be driven by the output of an optoisolator from ENBL to COM as shown in Figure 7. If ENBL is not used, it should be connected to COM. Figure 8. Using External Supplies Figure 7. Using ENBL as Primary Input Figure 9.
