Texas Instruments UCC5880-Q1 Automotive Isolated 20A Gate Driver

Texas Instruments UCC5880-Q1 Automotive Isolated 20A Gate Driver is an isolated, highly configurable adjustable slew-rate gate driver designed to drive high-power SiC MOSFETs and IGBTs in electric and hybrid electric vehicle (EV/HEV) applications. Protections include shunt resistor-based overcurrent, overtemperature (PTC, NTC, or diode), DESAT detection, and programmable soft turnoff (STO) and two-level soft turnoff (2STO) current. The UCC5880-Q1 device includes an active Miller clamp and an active gate pull-down while the driver is unpowered, which both help reduce the application size. An integrated 10-bit ADC can monitor up to two analog inputs, VCC2, DESAT, and the gate driver temperature for enhanced system management.

Texas Instruments UCC5880-Q1 Automotive Isolated 20A Gate Driver also features diagnostics and detection functions to simplify the design of ASIL-compliant systems. The parameters and thresholds for these features are configurable using the SPI, enabling the driver to be used with nearly any IGBT or SiC MOSFET. Applications include EV/HEV traction inverters and EV/HEV power modules.
