The DRV8705-Q1 is a highly
integrated H-bridge
gate driver, capable of driving
high-side and low-side N-channel power MOSFETs. It
generates the proper gate drive voltages using an
integrated doubler charge pump for the high-side
and a linear regulator for the low-side.
The device uses a smart gate drive architecture
to reduce system cost and improve reliability. The
gate driver optimizes dead time to avoid
shoot-through conditions, provides control to
decreasing electromagnetic interference (EMI)
through adjustable gate drive current, and
protects against drain to source and gate short
conditions with VDS and VGS
monitors.
A
low-side shunt amplifier allows for current
sensing in order to measure motor current and
provide feedback to the external controller for
current limiting or stall detection.
The DRV8705-Q1 provide an
array of protection features to ensure robust
system operation. These include under and
overvoltage monitors for the power supply and
charge pump, VDS overcurrent and
VGS gate fault monitors for the
external MOSFETs, offline open load and short
circuit diagnostics, and internal thermal warning
and shutdown protection.
