VCC: Power Supply Voltage
This is the supply voltage pin of the IC and sense node for the under-voltage lock out circuit. It is possible to turn
off the IC by pulling this pin below the minimum turn off threshold voltage, VCCUV- without damage to the IC. This pin
is not internally clamped.
RT: Oscillator timing resistor
This pin provides a precise 2V reference and a resistor connected from this pin to COM defines a current that is
used to set the minimum oscillator frequency. To close the feedback loop that regulates the converter output voltage
by modulating the oscillator frequency, the phototransistor of an optocoupler will be connected to this pin through a
resistor. The value of this resistor will set the maximum operating frequency. An R-C series connected from this pin
to COM sets frequency shift at start-up to prevent excessive energy inrush (soft-start).
CT/SD: Oscillator timing capacitor /Shutdown
An external capacitor CT from this pin to COM sets the dead time and frequency of the oscillator. The CT pin has
sawtooth waveform, which is charged up by the current reference programmed at RT pin during rising slope and is
discharged by an internal fixed 2mA current source during the falling slope. The falling time of the sawtooth defines
the dead-time.
At start-up, a 10uA current source charges this capacitor and the oscillator is enabled only when the voltage at this
pin exceeds VEN1. The IC can also be used to enter sleep mode by externally pulling this pin below VEN2.
COM: Logic and Gate drive Ground
This is ground potential pin of the integrated control circuit.

LO: Low-side Gate Drive Output
The driver is capable of 0.3A source and 0.9A sink peak current to drive the lower MOSFET of the half-bridge leg.
The pin is actively pulled to GND during UVLO.
VS: High Side Gate Return/Current Sense
This is the floating supply return. This pin also acts as a high voltage current sense pin and uses the low-side
MOSFET RDSON to detect an over current fault condition.
HO: High-side Gate Drive
The driver is capable of 0.3A source and 0.9A sink peak current to drive the high-side MOSFET in the half-bridge. A
resistor internally connected to pin VS ensures that the pin is not floating during UVLO.
VB: High Side floating supply voltage
The bootstrap capacitor connected between this pin and VS is charged by the bootstrap diode when the low-side
gate-drive is high.

State Diagram
UVLO Mode
The IC remains in the UVLO condition until the voltage on the VCC pin exceeds the VCC turn on threshold voltage,
VCCUV+. During the time the IC remains in the UVLO state, the gate drive circuit is inactive and the IC draws a
quiescent current of ICC START. The UVLO mode is accessible from any other state of operation whenever the IC
supply voltage condition of VCC < VCC UV- occurs.
Sleep Mode
When VCC exceeds the VCCUV+ threshold the IRS2795 starts to charge up CT capacitor with ICT startup current
towards the enable threshold, VEN1. During this period, the IC is in Sleep mode. The oscillator and gate drive
circuits are disabled and the Ic consumes ISLEEP.
When the voltage at the CT/SD pin exceeds VEN1, the IC is pulled out of sleep mode and the 2V reference voltage
at the RT pin is enabled.
The IC can be placed in Sleep mode while operating in Normal mode by externally pulling the CT/SD pin below
VEN2. When this occurs, the RT pin of the IC is internally discharged to COM to ensure a system restart with softstart.
Normal Mode
The IC enters in normal operating mode once the UVLO voltage and VEN1 has been exceeded. The RT pin voltage
is 2V under normal mode. Gate drive signal appears at HO and LO with fixed 50% duty-cycle.
During this mode, the over-current protection scheme using the VS sense circuitry is active.
Current Fault Mode:
When operating in Normal mode, the IC senses the voltage on the VS pin each time the low-side device is turned
ON (with a leading edge blanking on LO, tblank). When the voltage sensed exceeds VOCP, the IC terminates the
current gate pulse, disables the oscillator and gate drivers, and enters the Current Fault mode. When the IC
enters this state, RT and CT/SD pins are internally discharged and IC supply voltage must be recycled before the
IC can restart with soft-start again

General Description
The IRS2795 is a double-ended controller for the resonant half-bridge topology. It provides complementary outputs
with 50% (max) duty cycle; the high-side and low-side bridge devices are driven 180° out-of-phase for exactly the
same time. A programmable dead-time inserted between the turn-OFF of one switch and the turn-ON of the other
one guarantees soft-switching operation. The IC incorporates a multi-function oscillator that allows the designer to
program all the necessary features to control a half bridge resonant switch-mode power supply featuring low standby
power. The IC also incorporates additional protection features for robust operation and provides a high performance
solution while minimizing external components, design time, and printed circuit board real estate, all in an 8 pin SOIC
package.
The IC enables the designer to externally program all the following features using a 2 pin RC oscillator – operating
frequency range (start-up, minimum and maximum frequency), dead time, soft-start time and sleep mode operation.
IRS2795 also uses IR’s proprietary high-voltage technology to implement a VS sensing circuitry that monitors the
current through the low-side half bridge MOSFET for short circuit faults. By using the RDSON of the low-side MOSFET,
the IRS2795 eliminates the need for an additional current sensing resistor, filter and current-sensing pin. This
protection feature is latched and the thresholds are fixed at 2V for IRS27951 and 3V for IRS27952.
Finally, the controller IC also features a micro power startup current (ICC<100µA) and a user initiated sleep mode
during which the IC power consumption is less than 200µA (@ Vcc=15V). The sleep mode function allows system
designs with reduced standby power consumption and can be used to meet stringent energy standards from Blue
Angel, Energy Star etc.
IC Supply Circuit & Low start-up current
The UVLO circuit maintains the IC in UVLO mode if the VCC pin voltage is less than the VCC turn-on threshold,
VCCON. If the VCC pin voltage drops below the UVLO threshold VCCUVLO at anytime after start-up, the IC is
pushed back into UVLO mode. The current consumption in this mode is less than 100uA.

IRS27952S
Multi-function 2 Pin Oscillator
The two pin oscillator is externally programmed by a resistor RT connected between pin#2 and COM and a
capacitor CT, connected from pin#3 to COM. The RT pin provides an accurate 2V reference (±2%) with a 2mA
source capability (higher the current sourced by the pin, the higher is the oscillator frequency).
In normal operation, CT is charged by a current defined by the network connected at the RT pin. The oscillator
ramp charges and discharges between the two ramp thresholds (3 and 5V). When the ramp voltage reaches 5V,
it is internally discharged by a fixed current of 2mA. The fall time for the ramp corresponds to the dead time
between the bridge devices.
At startup, a 10uA internal current source charges the oscillator capacitor at the CT pin to VEN1. At this point, the
IC is pulled out of sleep mode and the 2V reference voltage at the RT pin is enabled. The low-side device is now
also turned ON to charge the bootstrap capacitor (this sequence at startup or while exiting sleep mode ensures
that the low-side device is always switched on first to charge the bootstrap capacitor which will be ready to
supply the high-side floating driver). The low-side device remains ON till the CT pin voltage reaches the upper
ramp threshold of 5V (see Fig 2).
The programmable features for the oscillator are listed below• Wide frequency range:
The high-speed oscillator allows an output frequency from 50 kHz up to 500 kHz.
• Programmable dead-time:
The oscillator timing capacitor CT also programs the dead time between LO and HO.
• Programmable soft-start time:
In resonant converter applications, the output power delivered is an inverse function of frequency
i.e. soft- start is achieved by sweeping the operating frequency from an initial high value until the
control loop takes over. Additionally, the resonant tank has a non-linear frequency dependence
that makes the converter’s power transfer capability change little when the frequency is away
from resonance and change very quickly as frequency approaches the resonant tank frequency.
An R-C series circuit (CSS + RSS) connected between the RT pin and COM programs the softstart time for the converter. Initially, the capacitor CSS is totally discharged, so that the series
resistor RSS is effectively in parallel to Rfmin and the resulting initial frequency is determined by
RSS and RT only (the optocoupler’s phototransistor is cut off). During this frequency sweep, the
operating frequency will decay following the exponential charge of CSS, that is, initially it will
change relatively quickly but the rate of change will get slower. The CSS capacitor charges until
its voltage reaches 2V and, consequently, the current through RSS is reduced to zero.
The soft-start sequence is activated at normal startup and back to operation from Sleep mode.
• Programmable start-up, minimum and maximum frequency:
In resonant converter applications, it is important to operate the converter in the soft-switching
region of operation. IRS2795 offers a trimmed voltage reference (±2%) at the RT pin to
accurately program the converter switching frequency range in the desired region of operation.
- The effective resistance (RSS//RT) at pin#2 during IC power up and the CT capacitor program
the start-up frequency of the converter.
- RT and CT program the minimum operating frequency.

- For closed loop systems with feedback control, a resistor Rfmax can be connected between the
RT pin and the collector of the (emitter-grounded) phototransistor. The feedback loop modulates
the current through the phototransistor and hence, the oscillator frequency for output voltage
regulation.
- The converter maximum frequency is set by (Rmax//RT) and CT.

User initiated Micro Power Sleep mode
The IC can be actively pushed into a micropower sleep mode where current consumption is less than 200uA by
pulling the CT pin below the sleep threshold VEN2, even while the IC VCC is above VCCON. This mode allows
the user to disable the resonant power converter during application standby modes in order to meet regulation
standards (Blue Angel, Energy Start, Green Power etc). This IC disabling feature can also be use to implement
other system protection features.
Figure 5: IC transition from normal to sleep mode by pulling down CT/SD pin
Gate Drive Capability
The gate drive output stage of the IC is capable of 0.3A peak source current and 0.9A peak sink current drive
capability. Gate drive buffer circuits can be easily driven with the GATE pin of the IC to adapt to any system
power level.
System Protection Features
IRS2795 uses IR’s high-voltage technology to implement a VS sensing circuitry that monitors the current through
the low-side half bridge MOSFET for short circuit faults. By using the RDSON of the low-side MOSFET, the need
for an additional current sensing resistor is eliminated. The voltage at the VS node is sensed after a leading edge
blanking time on LO. When the sensed voltage exceeds the protection thresholds, the IC enters Current Fault
Mode (gate drive outputs are disabled and the oscillator pins are internally discharged to COM).
This protection feature is latched and the IC supply voltage must be pulled below the UVLO threshold and then
again above VCCON in order to reset the latch and restart the IC.

PCB Layout Tips
Distance between high and low voltage components: It is strongly recommended to place the components tied to
the floating voltage pins (VB and VS) near the respective high voltage portions of the device.
Ground Plane: In order to minimize noise coupling, the ground plane should not be placed under or near the high
voltage floating side.
Gate Drive Loops: Current loops behave like antennas and are able to receive and transmit EM noise. In order to
reduce the EM coupling and improve the power switch turn on/off performance, the gate drive loops must be
reduced as much as possible. For the low-side driver, the return of the drive loop must be directly connected to the
COM pin of the IC and separate with signal ground (power ground and signal ground have star connection at COM
pin).
Supply Capacitor: It is recommended to place a bypass capacitor (CIN) between the VCC and COM pins. A 1μF
ceramic capacitor is suitable for most applications. This component should be placed as close as possible to the
pins in order to reduce parasitic elements.
CBS Capacitor:
The CBS capacitor should be placed as close as possible to the VB and VS pins.
Routing and Placement: 1) The 8-pin IC has only one COM pin for both signal return and power return, so it is
strongly recommended to route the signal ground and power ground separately and with a star connection at the
COM pin. 2) The RT pin provides a current reference for the internal oscillator and needs to be kept as clean as
possible to avoid frequency jittering or duty-cycle mismatch between high-side and low-side. The components
connected to this pin must keep away from the high frequency switching loop such as the gate driver loop and the
VS node. The PCB traces connected to RT pin also need to be kept away from any switching node. 3) Connect CT
capacitor directly to COM pin, don’t share the return with any other signal ground.

1. Introduction and Device Overview
The IRS2795(1,2) is a self oscillating half-bridge driver IC for resonant half-bridge DC-DC converter
applications for use up to 600V. It has a fixed 50% duty-cycle and very wide operating frequency
range. The maximum switching frequency can go up to 500kHz. The frequency can be programmed
externally through the RT and CT pins. The IC offers flexibility to program the minimum operating
frequency, the maximum operating frequency and the frequency sweep at power up for the softstart function.
The dead time is programmed by the CT capacitor. The programmable dead-time allows the user to
optimize the system with the minimum body-diode conduction time for higher efficiency under full
load, while keeping ZVS switching under no load condition.
The IC offers over current protection using the on-state resistance of the low-side MOSFET. The
protection threshold is 2V for IRS27951 and it is 3V for IRS27952 IC.
The IC can be disabled by externally pulling the voltage at the CT/SD pin below its enable voltage
threshold. The IC enters “sleep” mode and only consumes micro-power when disabled.
IRS2795(1,2) packing in a 8-pin package, it’s easy to use, and drastically reduces external
component count for a high efficiency low cost power supply.

2. LLC Resonant Half-Bridge Converter Operation
The increasing popularity of the LLC resonant converter in its half-bridge implementation is due to its
high efficiency, low switching noise and ability to achieve high power density. This topology is also
the most attractive topology for front-end DC bus conversion. It utilizes the magnetizing inductance
of the transformer to construct a complex resonant tank with Buck Boost transfer characteristics in
the soft-switching region. The typical power stage schematic for this topology is shown below.

Figure 3: Typical schematic of a DC-DC half-bridge resonant converter
Devices M1 and M2 operate at 50% duty cycle and the output voltage is regulated by varying the
switching frequency of the converter. The converter has two resonant frequencies – a lower
resonant frequency (given by Lm, Lr, Cr and the load) and a fixed higher series resonant frequency
Fr1 (given by Lr and Cr only). The two bridge devices M1 and M2 can be soft-switched for the entire

load range by operating the converter under inductive load mode (ZVS region). It can be either
above or below the resonant frequency Fr1.
The typical AC transfer characteristics1 for a LLC tank resonant converter are shown in Figure 4.
The group of curve indicates the gain under different load conditions.
Figure 4: Typical frequency response of a LLC resonant converter
The characteristics of a LLC resonant converter can be divided into three regions based on the 3
different modes of operation.
The first region is for switching frequency above the resonant frequency Fr1.

The converter operation is very similar to a series resonant converter. Here Lm never resonates with
resonant capacitor Cr; it is clamped by the output voltage and acts as the load of the series resonant
tank. This is the inductive load region and the converter is always under ZVS operation regardless of
the load condition.
In the 2nd region, the switching frequency is higher than the lower resonant frequency but lower than

Lm now participates in the resonant operation and the second time interval begins. During this time
interval, dominate resonant components change to Cr and Lm in series with Lr. The ZVS operation in

are under hard switching and have high switching losses. So ZCS operation should always be
avoided.
The typical operating waveforms of the 3 modes are demonstrated in Figure 5 to Figure 7.

The waveforms indicate that the current in secondary rectifier diodes moves from continuous current
mode (CCM) to discontinuous current mode (DCM) when the switching frequency varies from above
resonant ZVS to below resonant ZVS due to load increasing. The ripple voltage on the resonant
capacitor Cr also increases in the below resonant ZVS mode.
Figure 7: Typical waveform of below resonant ZCS switching
In ZCS mode, the two switching devices M1 and M2 are turned off under zero current condition. The
turn-on of the two switches is hard switching (none ZVS). The turn-on switching loss is high
especially under high voltage bus voltage. The resonant capacitor Cr also has high voltage stress.
ZCS operation should always be avoided.
The typical voltage conversion ratio of a LLC resonant converter is shown in Figure 8.

With a fixed input voltage, the converter varies switching frequency to regulate the output voltage
over load range – keeping the same conversion ratio over the family of curves with different Q.
Given a fixed load condition, the converter varies switching frequency along that load line to regulate
output voltage over input voltage range – the conversion ratio increases when input voltage
decreases.
To design the LLC resonant half-bridge converter, we use the First Harmonic Approximation (FHA)
to get equivalent circuit. All the components are put to primary side to simply the analysis. The load
equals to a resistor Rac that is in parallel with transformer primary inductance Lm.

Usually the transfer ratio of the power stage is higher than the theoretical calculated value. This is
because of the parasitic capacitance in the system (the coupling capacitor between transformer
windings and the junction capacitors of output diodes) affects the resonance, especially at zero load
where the switching frequency is much higher than the resonant frequency. So it’s recommended to
choose the n to be slightly higher than the calculated value especially if the controller has no burst
mode to keep regulation at high line and zero load condition.
n=9
Step 2: Choose k value
k is the ratio between the transformer magnetic inductance and the resonant inductance. Smaller k
value gives steeper Gain curve, especially at the below resonant ZVS region as shown in Figure 10.
The output voltage is more sensitive to frequency variation with smaller k factor.

Figure 10: k factor
A higher k value results in higher magnetic inductance and thus lower magnetizing current in the
transformer primary winding – that means lower circulating power losses. However, higher magnetic
inductance could also cause non-ZVS switching at high line and zero load condition where the
circulating current is too small to fully charge / discharge the VS node during dead-time.
The recommend range of k is from 3 to 10. Here k = 5 is chosen.
Step 3: Calculate Qmax to stay in ZVS operation at the maximum load under the minimum
input voltage

To keep the converter working in soft switching mode, the operating point should always in the ZVS
region as shown in Figure 4. The ZVS ZCS boundary line is defined by the phase angle of Zin

Zin is zero. With this condition we can calculate the maximum Q which allows the converter to stay
in ZVS. The maximum Q happens at the minimum input voltage and the maximum load.

Where Mmax is the maximum conversion ratio at the minimum input voltage,

Step 5: Calculate Lr, Cr and Lm
As Qmax happens at the maximum load, so the resonant components Lr, Cr and Lm can be
calculated per the Qmax value that had obtained in step 3:

Recalculate Fr1 to keep the same Qmax with the selected Cr capacitor.

2 ⋅ π ⋅ C r ⋅ Q max⋅ Rac
Recalculate Lr with the selected Cr and Fr1.
Lr =
Q max⋅ Rac
= 113uH
2 ⋅ π ⋅ Fr1
The actual Lr value should be lower than the calculated value to stay in ZVS region.
Now calculate Lm value based on Lr and the k factor that preset in step 2:
Lm = Lr ⋅ k = 113 × 5 = 565uH
Please note that Lm is the magnetizing inductance of the transformer. The total primary inductance
value Lp is the sum of Lm and Lr.
L p = Lm + Lr = 678uH
To simplify the power stage, the resonant inductor can be integrated into the power transformer by
using slotted bobbin, also called two-section or two-chamber bobbin. By separate the primary
winding and the secondary winding in the two chambers, the coupling between primary and
secondary is much worse than the single section bobbin. Thus the leakage inductance is high and
can be used as resonant inductor. The component count is lower and the copper loss is also
smaller. Figure 11 is the picture of a two-section bobbin.
Figure 11: 2-section Transformer

AN-1160
12
When measure the inductance of a transformer, the primary inductance Lp is measured with all
secondary windings opened. And the leakage inductance is measured with all the secondary
windings shorted.
Step 6: Calculate transformer primary and secondary turns
The standard half-bridge equation for the transformer turns number calculation is used here:
Np =
Vin min⋅ D max
2 ⋅ ∆B ⋅ Ae ⋅ F min
With ∆B = 0.2T , Ae = 2.11cm (ETD49), F min = 60 KHz , Vin min = 350V , D max = 0.5

Np =

×10 = 35
2 × 0.2 × 2.11× 60
Ns =
Np 35
=
= 3.89
n
9
The number of turns must be an integer and should be higher than the calculated value, so choose
Ns = 4
Then recalculate Np:
Np = Ns ⋅ n = 4 × 9 = 36
Step 7: Calculate transformer primary and secondary current
Most LLC converters design the minimum switching frequency to be below the resonant frequency
Fr1, in order to maintain output voltage regulation at low line and full load. When the switching
frequency is lower than the resonant frequency Fr1, the current waveform is shown as in Figure 12.
Figure 12: Transformer primary current at full load and minimum input voltage
I1 is the current where the resonant current in Lr meets the magnetizing current in Lm. This is also
the point where Cr and Lr finish resonance for the first half-period of Fr1. At this point, there is no
more energy delivered to the load and the output diodes are off. The Cr starts to resonate with Lr +
Lm until the switching MOSFETs change states. I1 can be calculated as:
www.irf.com
AN-1160
13
I1 =
n ⋅ Vout
= 0.95 A
2 ⋅ Lm ⋅ 2 ⋅ Fr1
The peak and RMS value of primary current can be estimated as:
 Iout ⋅ π 
2
Ipri ( pk ) = 
 + I1 = 1.99 A
 2⋅n 
2
IpriRMS =
Ipri ( pk )
2
= 1 .4 A
The RMS current is calculated by assuming pure sinusoid current waveform. So the actual primary
RMS current is higher than the calculated value.
The current in each secondary winding is very close to half-sinusoid, thus the peak and RMS current
can be estimated by:
Iout ⋅ π
= 15.7 A
2
Iout ⋅ π
Isrms =
= 7.85 A
4
Ispk =
The wire gauge of primary and secondary windings should be selected properly according to the
calculated RMS current.
Step 8: Calculate resonant capacitor voltage
The Cr waveform is shown as in Figure 13:
Figure 13: Typical resonant tank voltage and current waveforms
ILm is the magnetizing current of transformer primary, not including the current which is delivered to
the secondary load through an ideal transformer in parallel with Lm. The difference between ILr and
ILm is the output current.

The VCr voltage reaches its peak when Lr current is crossing zero and it is at the mid of input voltage
when Lr current reached its peak. The Cr voltage is at the maximum value when VS node is zero and
it is at the minimum value when VS node is equals to Vin. So VCrmin and VCrmax can be calculated
as:
VC r max = n ⋅ Vout + Ipri ( pk ) ×
Lr
Cr
VC r min = Vin − n ⋅ Vout − Ipri ( pk ) ×

The peak to peak voltage ripple of VCr is VCrmax-VCrmin.

It can be seen that the maxim peak-to-peak voltage happens at the maximum load and the minimum
DC input Vinmin, the switching frequency is at the minimum Fmin.
In this example:

113uH
− 350V = 368V
22nF
The resonant capacitor Cr can be selected according to the capacitance value, together with its
voltage and current rating. Polypropylene film capacitor is preferred to use for lower power loss.
Please note the polypropylene film capacitor is rated under DC voltage or 50Hz AC voltage and has
voltage derating at high frequency. The ability of withstanding high frequency voltage is limited by
thermal (power dissipation) and peak current capability. So even though the calculation result shows
the maximum AC RMS voltage is 130V, a capacitor with higher voltage rating should be chosen per
its frequency curve. Below is an example of EPCOS MKP capacitor B32612 (1000Vdc/250Vac).

4. IRS2795 Passive Components Design
Step 9: Calculate the minimum dead-time to keep ZVS switching at zero load at the maximum
input voltage
For resonant half-bridge converter, the switching frequency goes to the maximum under no load at
the maximum input voltage. Theoretically when the switching frequency is above the resonant
frequency Fr1, the operation is ZVS switching. However, above resonance is only one of the
necessary conditions for ZVS. The other condition is the equivalent parasitic capacitor of the halfbridge midpoint (junction capacitor of VS node) to be fully (dis-)charged within the dead-time period.
Figure 16 demonstrates if the dead-time is not sufficient, the turn-on of the MOSFET has hardswitching even though the converter is working under the below resonant ZVS mode.
www.irf.com
AN-1160
16
Figure 16: ZVS and none-ZVS waveform of region 2 operation
To keep the converter always working under ZVS condition, it is necessary to calculate the minimum
time that required to fully (dis-)charging the VS equivalent capacitor during the two switches
interleaving period (dead-time).
As the equivalent capacitor is (dis-)charged by the circulating current in the transformer primary
winding, so the worst case happens at the maximum input voltage and zero load condition where the
transformer current is at minimum. At zero load, there is no current transfer to the secondary side
and the current in the tank is just the magnetizing current of transformer. In each half-cycle, it is a
linear straight line as shown in Figure 17.

Figure 18: VS Equivalent junction capacitor
C HB = 2 ⋅ Coss _ eff + Crss _ eff + CWell + Cs
It includes:
The effective Coss of the two MOSFETs (both high-side and low-side);
The Coss_eff as defined in the MOSFET datasheet is the effective capacitance of MOSFET
that gives the same charging time as a fixed capacitor while VDS is rising from 0 to 80% of
VDS. So the Coss_eff of a 500V MOSFET is defined under 0 to 400V VDS which fits to this
application.
The effective Crss of the low-side MOSFET;
The Crss of MOSFET is typically defined at VDS=25V. The Crss capacitance value reduces
as VDS voltage increasing. So the effective Crss can be chose as ½ or 1/3 of Crss.
The stray capacitance Cwell of IRS2795(1,2);
The stray capacitance of IRS2795(1,2) is the high-side well capacitance of the 600V driver.
The value of the stray capacitor is around 5pF.
The snubber capacitor Cs (if any) that is connected to the VS node.
For example, the Coss_eff of MOSFET STF13NM50N is 110pF, Crss is 5pF, and there is no
snubber capacitor to the VS node, the (dis-)charging time of VS node can be calculated as:
Coss _ eff = 110 pF , Crss _ eff = 2.5 pF , CWell = 5 pF , Cs = 0 pF
Tch =
C HB ⋅ Vin max
I ' pri ( pk )
Tch = 185ns
The dead-time calculation should also include the gate driver falling time. The MOSFET turn-off
timing diagram is shown in Figure 19, which using LO and M2 as an example. In the first time
interval t1, gate voltage discharges to a plateau voltage V’m, and both VDS voltage and ID current
www.irf.com
AN-1160
18
stay unchanged in t1. As long as MOSFET gate voltage reaches the miller plateau V’m, miller cap
Cgd is discharged and VDS voltage starts increasing. Due to the nonlinearity of Coss capacitor, VDS
voltage increase slowly at the beginning, then the slope becomes steeper at higher VDS voltage.
The miller plateau is the flat portion of gate driver curve. It varies with drain current. MOSFET turns
off at a relative low current level in LLC application, the miller plateau is very close to the gate turn
off threshold Vgs(th).
The timing that is interested for the dead time calculation is t1, as the charging time of the VS node
(i.e. VDS of M2) starting from t2 is already included in the Tch calculation. In t1, VDS voltage is 0V,
and MOSFET gate equals to a constant capacitor load to the IC. So the discharge time t1 can be
calculated based on the RC time constant of the gate drive loop.

STF13NM50 gate equivalent capacitor is 2.32nF, MOSFET internal gate resistor is 5Ω, Vgs(th) is
3V. Thus if Vcc=15V, Rg=10Ω, gate discharge time t1 is:
t1 = 78.4ns
The dead-time should be longer than the sum of Tch and t1. For experience, it is recommended to
add 50ns to the calculated value. The minimum dead-time TDT is then given by:
TDT = Tch + t1 + 50ns = 313ns
For most of the design, it’s not recommended to have a dead-time that is longer than 1us, as longer
dead-time leads to higher body-diode power losses at full load. So if the calculated dead-time is too
long, go back to step 2 and choose a smaller k value.
Once the system parameters are defined, the passive components around the IRS2795(1,2) as
shown in Figure 20 can be calculated.

and low current (100mA) diode.
The bootstrap capacitor CBS is used to hold VBS supply voltage for the high-side driver. The value of

600V/1A fast recovery diode is required for bootstrap.
5. IRS2795 Power Loss Calculation
5.1 Low voltage static loss that caused by quiescent current
Pd1 = Vcc × Iqcc
where Iqcc is 2.5mA maximum per IRS2795(1,2) datasheet.
5.2 The gate driver power losses
The gate driver losses of IRS2795(1,2) are the losses when driving the two external MOSFETs M1
and M2. In ZVS mode, MOSFET VDS voltage is 0V prior to the gate turns on, so the “Miller” charge
Qgd should be subtracted from the total gate charge. Further, at ZVS operation, the MOSFET is as a
constant capacitor load to the driver. The equivalent capacitor value equals to the Cgs+Cgd at
VDS=0V condition, which can be obtained from the gate charge curve in a MOSFET data sheet. It is
indeed the slope factor of the gate charge curve where VGS is above the miller plateau voltage Vm,
as shown in Figure 21.
C geq =
(Qg − Qgd − Qgs )
Vgs − Vm
Figure 21: MOSFET gate charge curve and equivalent gate capacitance at ZVS mode
Typically the Qg, Qgd and Qgs value are specified under 10V VGS voltage, Vm is the flat portion
voltage of the gate charge curve. For example, STF13NM50 Qg=30nC, Qgd=15nC, Qgs=5nC,
Vm=5.7V, its gate equivalent capacitor in ZVS is 2.32nF.
The total gate charge in ZVS mode is proportional to the gate voltage:
Qgz = Cgeq ⋅ VG
www.irf.com
AN-1160
21
IRS2795(1,2) gate output voltage is clamped to Vcc voltage. So the total gate driver losses of both
high-side and low-side can be calculated by:
Pdr = Pdr1 + Pdr 2 = 2 ⋅ Cgeq ⋅ Vcc 2 ⋅ Fsw
The total gate driver losses are dissipated in driver IC IRS2795(1,2) and the external gate driver
resistor including the MOSFET internal gate resistor. The power loss in IRS2795(1,2) is proportional
to the resistor divider value:
Pd 2 = (
Rup _ eff
Rdown _ eff
Pdr
+
)×
Rup _ eff + Rg + R g FET Rdown _ eff + Rg + R gFET
2
Where,
Rg :is the external MOSFET gate drive resistor
Rup_eff: IRS2795(1,2) gate driver effective pull up resistance (40Ω)
Rdown_eff: IRS2795(1,2) gate driver effective pull down resistance (6Ω)
RgFET: MOSFET gate input resistance
The gate driver pull-up and pull-down resistance used for power loss calculation are given below:
Rup = 40Ω, Rdown = 6Ω . They are bigger than datasheet specification (with is defined under
20mA current) as they are the equivalent pull-up and pull-down resistance under high gate current.
5.3 The CMOS switching losses
The switching loss in low voltage logic circuit is proportional to the switching frequency and supply
voltage Vcc:
Pd 3 = Vcc × Fsw × Qcmos
For IRS2795(1,2),
Qcmos = 6nC ~ 10nC
5.4 The high voltage switching losses
The switching losses in high voltage level-shift circuit:
Pd 4 = (Vcc + Vin ) × Fsw × Qp
Vin is the input bus voltage. Qp is the charge absorbed by the level shifter. For IRS2795(1,2), Qp is
2nC under 300V to 430V bus voltage.
5.5 An example of power loss calculation
The total power loss in IRS2795(1,2) is the sum of Pd1 to Pd4.
Pd _ total = Pd1 + Pd 2 + Pd 3 + Pd 4
An example of power loss calculation with Vcc=15V, maximum switching frequency =150KHz,
MOSFETs =STF13NM50N, input bus voltage = 400V, external gate resistor = 10ohm:
Pd 1 = 37.5mW
Pdr = 157 mW , Pd 2 = 79.5mW
Pd 3 = 18mW
Pd 4 = 124.5mW
Pd _ total = 259.5mW
www.irf.com
AN-1160
22
It can be seen that the high voltage switching loss Pd4 and gate driver loss Pd2 are the main source
of total power losses. Pd4 is proportional to switching frequency and HV bus voltage. For 400V DC
BUS voltage, IRS2795(1,2) can directly drives big MOSFETs (Cgeq ≤ 4.7nF) up to 250KHz
switching frequency. It is necessary to clamp the Vcc supply voltage to 15V or lower to reduce gate
driver losses when the frequency goes to 300KHz while driving big MOSFETs. For 300KHz to
500KHz switching frequency and 400V applications, it is recommended to use external driver.
IC operation current Icc can be obtained by the total low-voltage power loss and Vcc voltage:
Icc = ( Pd1 + Pdr + Pd 3) / Vcc
6. MOSFET Selection Guide
The power MOSFET should be selected per the breakdown voltage and RDSON value. In addition, the
body diode reverse recovery characteristic also plays important role to the selection. The converter
usually has a few switching cycles that is under hard switching at the beginning of startup. This is
because the resonant capacitor and output capacitors are fully discharged. In this case, longer
reverse recovery time could cause shoot through between the two MOSFETs. Thus a MOSFET with
fast reverse recovery diode is preferred.
As the resonant half-bridge has ZVS switching, the turn-on loss is negligible. If not switching under
very high frequency (≤150Khz), the major power loss in MOSFET comes from the conduction loss.
The maximum conduction loss can be calculated as:
Pcon = Iqrms 2 × Rdson @ Tj
Where Iqrms =
Ipri ( pk )
, and Rdson@Tj is the MOSFET on-state resistance at the system
2
maximum allowable junction temperature.
The calculation of the turn-off loss of MOSFET is complicated due to none linearity of Coss under
different VDS voltage. Thus we use the estimated formula:
Poff =
C HB × Vin 2 × Fsw
24
The total power loss in each MOSFET equals to Pcon + Poff .
IRS2795(1,2) uses the Rdson of low side MOSFET for current sensing and over current protection.
The product family provides two choices on different over current protection level: the OCP
threshold of IRS27951 is 2V and IRS27952 is 3V. Typically the IRS27951 is good for oversized
MOSFET where a lower Rdson for better efficiency and the IRS27952 is good for cost effective
MOSFET where the Rdson is bigger. A quick estimation for OCP threshold is to use 2.5 to 3 times of
the maximum drain current times the Rdson of MOSFET.
At startup, the MOSFET current could be a few times higher than the normal working current. To
prevent false triggering of over current protection when using large Rdson MOSFET, it is
recommended to extend the soft-start time to tens of milliseconds.

8. Layout guidelines and example
Ground Plane:
In order to minimize noise coupling, the ground plane should not be placed under or near the high
voltage floating side.
Gate Drive Loops:
Current loops behave like antennas and are able to receive and transmit EM noise. In order to
reduce the EM coupling and improve the power switch turn on/off performance, the gate drive loops
must be reduced as much as possible. For the low-side driver, the return of the drive loop must be
directly connected to the COM pin of the IC and separate with signal ground (power ground and
signal ground have star connection at COM pin).
Supply Capacitor:
It is recommended to place a bypass capacitor (CVCC) between the VCC and COM pins. A 1µF
ceramic capacitor is suitable for most applications. This component should be placed as close as
possible to the pins in order to reduce parasitic elements.
CBS Capacitor:
The CBS capacitor should be placed as close as possible to the VB and VS pins.
Routing and Placement:
1) The 8-pin IC has only one COM pin for both signal return and power return, so it is strongly
recommended to route the signal ground and power ground separately with a star connection at the
COM pin.

2) The RT pin provides a current reference for the internal oscillator and needs to be kept as clean
as possible to avoid frequency jittering or duty-cycle mismatch between high-side and low-side. The
components connected to this pin must keep away from the high frequency switching loop such as
the gate driver loop and the VS node. The PCB traces connected to RT pin also need to be kept
away from any switching node.
3) Connect CT capacitor directly to COM pin, don’t share the return with any other signal ground.
