2.3.4 UCC21222

The UCC21222 device is an isolated dual channel gate driver with programmable dead time. It is designed with 4-A peak-source and 6-A peak-sink current to drive power MOSFET, IGBT, and GaN transistors.

The UCC21222 device can be configured as two low-side drivers, two high-side drivers, or a half-bridge driver. Five-ns delay matching performance allows two outputs to be paralleled, doubling the drive strength for heavy load conditions without risk of internal shoot-through.

The input side is isolated from the two output drivers by a 3.0-kV RMS isolation barrier, with a minimum of 100-V/ns common-mode transient immunity (CMTI).

Resistor programmable dead time gives the capability to adjust dead time for system constraints to improve efficiency and prevent output overlap. Other protection features include: Disable feature to shut down both outputs simultaneously when DIS is set high, integrated deglitch filter that rejects input transients shorter than 5-ns, and negative voltage handling for up to –2-V spikes for 200-ns on input and output pins. All supplies have UVLO protection.
