No Redundancy

Figure 6-1 shows the architecture where both LV and HV batteries are used for providing the power to isolated bias supply devices. The low-side gate drivers are supplied from the HV and the high-side gate drivers from the LV battery. A vice-versa combination is also possible. In both cases there is no redundancy for the gate drivers, but there is a lower risk that both high-side and low-side gate drivers lose the supply at the same time. In case of losing connection or supply from one battery, either low-side or high-side gate drivers can still be powered.
