Full Bridge FET Gate Driver bare die leverages SOI process

SOI FET Gate Driver for Full-Bridge / H-Bridge & Motor Control applications enhances performance + reliability.

About the SiS4080A

This N-Channel MOSFET driver combines an input comparator to facilitate “hysteresis” with PWM operation to drive high frequency Full Bridge / H-Bridge topologies. A HEN (high enable) signal freewheels current in the lower MOSFETs whilst maintaining the upper MOSFETs in off state.  Switching frequency >1MHz enables efficient drive of Switching Power Supplies, Switching Amplifiers & Voice Coil Motors.  A single device can drive medium voltage brush motors & x2 devices can drive high performance stepper motors by translating short minimum “on-time” into precision micro-step capability. Propagation delays of ~55ns allow maximum calibration of control loop crossover frequency & dead-times, which adjust close to zero for minimal distortion & precision load control.

Produced by Silicon Supplies Ltd (SiS) using a unique SOI (Silicon-On-Insulator) design process, this bare die is a ruggedized electrical upgrade & direct replacement for the industry standard HIP4080, HIP4080A, HIP4080AIY or HIP4080AIW.

 

SiS4080A design improvements:

  • Latchup free operation via horizontal and vertical dielectric isolation
  • Reduced leakage current for improved power consumption
  • Lower parasitic capacitance for reduced propagation delay and increased device speed
  • Operational frequency capability ≥ 1MHz 
  • Greater stability and inherent reliability at higher temperature without derating.

 

Applications:

  • Medium/Large Voice Coil Motors
  • Switching Power Amplifiers
  • DC/DC & high performance AC/DC converters
  • Stepper Motor Controls
  • Audio Amplifiers
  • Battery Powered Vehicles
  • H-Bridge Power Supplies & UPS
  • Noise Cancellation Systems
  • Industrial Lamp loads
  • Brushed Motors
  • Peripherals.

 

The device is primarily available in bare die but can also be assembled into 20 lead SOIC, PDIP or other customer specific packages on request.
