Total power dissipation in any specific application will be the sum of the DC or steady-state power dissipation, and the AC dissipation caused by driving capacitive loads. tantalum capacitor for energy storage. In military applications, a CK05 or CK06 ceramic operator with a CSR-13 tantalum capacitor is an effective combination. For commercial applications, any low-inductance ceramic disk capacitor teamed with a Sprague 150D or equivalent low ESR capacitor will work well. The capacitors must be located as close as physically possible to the VCC pin, with combined lead and pc board trace lengths held to less than 0.5 inches. The DC power dissipation is given by: GROUNDING CONSIDERATIONS PDC = +VCC · ICC [1] The ability of the SG1644 to deliver high peak currents into capacitive loads can cause undesirable negative transients on the logic and power grounds. To avoid this, a low inductance ground path should be considered for each output to return the high peak currents back to it’s own ground point. A ground plane is recommended for best performance. If space for a ground plane is not available, make the paths as short and as wide as possible. The logic ground can be returned to the supply bypass capacitor and be connected at one point to the power grounds. where ICC is a function of the driver state, and hence is duty-cycle dependent. The AC power dissipation is proportional to the switching frequency, the load capacitance, and the square of the output voltage. In most applications, the driver is constantly changing state, and the AC contribution becomes dominant when the frequency exceeds 100-200KHz. LOGIC INTERFACE The SG1644 driver family is available in a variety of packages to accommodate a wide range of operating temperatures and power dissipation requirements. The Absolute Maximums section of the data sheet includes two graphs to aid the designer in choosing an appropriate package for his design. The logic input of the 1644 is designed to accept standard DCcoupled 5 volt logic swings, with no speed-up capacitors required. If the input signal voltage exceeds 6 volts, the input pin must be protected against the excessive voltage in the HIGH state. Either a high speed blocking diode must be used, or a resistive divider to attenuate the logic swing is necessary. The designer should first determine the actual power dissipation of the driver by referring to the curves in the data sheet relating operating current to supply voltage, switching frequency, and capacitive load. These curves were generated from data taken on actual devices. The designer can then refer to the Absolute Maximum Thermal Dissipation curves to choose a package type, and to determine if heat-sinking is required. LAYOUT FOR HIGH SPEED The SG1644 can generate relatively large voltage excursions with rise and fall times around 20-30 nanoseconds with light capacitive loads. A Fourier analysis of these time domain signals will indicate strong energy components at frequencies much higher than the basic switching frequency. These high frequencies can induce ringing on an otherwise ideal pulse if sufficient inductance occurs in the signal path (either the positive signal trace or the ground return). Overshoot on the rising edge is undesirable because the excess drive voltage could rupture the gate oxide of a power MOSFET. Trailing edge undershoot is dangerous because the negative voltage excursion can forwardbias the parasitic PN substrate diode of the driver, potentially causing erratic operation or outright failure. DESIGN EXAMPLE Given: Two 2500pF loads must be driven push-pull from a +15 volt supply at 100KHz. The application is a commercial one in which the maximum ambient temperature is +50°C, and cost is important. 1. From Figure 11, the average driver current consumption under these conditions will be 18mA, and the power dissipation will be 15volts x 18mA, or 270mW. Ringing can be reduced or eliminated by minimizing signal path inductance, and by using a damping resistor between the drive output and the capacitive load. Inductance can be reduced by keeping trace lengths short, trace widths wide, and by using 2oz. copper if possible. The resistor value for critical damping can be calculated from: 2. From the ambient thermal characteristic curve, it can be seen that the M package, which is an 8-pin plastic DIP with a copper lead frame, has more than enough thermal conductance from junction to ambient to support operation at an ambient temperature of +50°C. The SG36446M driver would be specified for this application. RD = 2√L/CL [2] SUPPLY BYPASSING where L is the total signal line inductance, and CL is the load capacitance. Values between 10 and 100ohms are usually sufficient. Inexpensive carbon composition resistors are best because they have excellent high frequency characteristics. They should be located as close as possible to the gate terminal of the power MOSFET. Since the SG1644 can deliver peak currents above 3amps under some load conditions, adequate supply bypassing is essential for proper operation. Two capacitors in parallel are recommended to guarantee low supply impedance over a wide bandwidth: a 0.1µF ceramic disk capacitor for high frequencies, and a 4.7µF solid LINFINITY 9/91 Rev 1.2 6/97 Copyright 1997 5 Microelectronics Inc. 11861 Western Avenue ∞ Garden Grove, CA 92841 (714) 898-8121 ∞ FAX: (714) 893-2570 SG1644/SG2644/SG3644 TYPICAL APPLICATIONS FIGURE 12. In this push pull converter circuit, the control capailities of the SG1524B PWM are combined with the powerful totem-pole drivers found in the SG1644 (see SG1626 for example). This inexpensive configuration results in very fast charge and discharge of the power MOSFET gate capacitance for efficient switching. FIGURE 13. When the peak current capabilites of PWM's such as 1525A or 1526B are not sufficient to drive high capacitive loads fast enough, SG1644 is one solution to this problem. This combination is especially suited for full bridge applications where high input capacitance MOSFETs are being used. Diodes D1 and D2 are necessary if the leakage inductance of the drive transformer will drive the output pins negative.

A low cost, yet powerful alternative to the single ended converters with parallel MOSFETs is a combination of SG1842 and SG1644 as shown in Figure 16. This combination will also allow a low noise operation by separating the drive and its associated high peak currents, away from the PWM logic section. FIGURE 16. When the inputs are driven with a TTL square wave drive, the high peak current capabilites of SG1644 allow easy implementation of charge pump voltage converters. FIGURE 15. Fast turn off of bipolar transistors is possible by the totem pose output stage of SG1644. The charge on capacitor C will drive the base negative for faster turn off.
