SNVS859C – JULY 2012 – REVISED SEPTEMBER 2016
LM25101 3-A, 2-A, and 1-A 80-V Half-Bridge Gate Drivers
1 Features
3 Description
•
•
•
The LM25101 high-voltage gate driver is designed to
drive both the high-side and the low-side N-Channel
MOSFETs in a synchronous buck or a half-bridge
configuration. The A version provides a full 3-A of
gate drive while the B and C versions provide 2-A
and 1-A, respectively. The outputs are independently
controlled with TTL input thresholds. An integrated
high voltage diode is provided to charge the high-side
gate drive bootstrap capacitor. A robust level shifter
operates at high speed while consuming low power
and providing clean level transitions from the control
logic to the high-side gate driver. Undervoltage
lockout is provided on both the low-side and the highside power rails.

Stresses beyond those listed under Absolute Maximum Ratings may cause permanent damage to the device. These are stress ratings
only, which do not imply functional operation of the device at these or any other conditions beyond those indicated under Recommended
Operating Conditions. Exposure to absolute-maximum-rated conditions for extended periods may affect device reliability. For
performance limits and associated test conditions, see the Electrical Characteristics tables.
In the application the HS node is clamped by the body diode of the external lower N-MOSFET, therefore the HS node will generally not
exceed –1 V. However, in some applications, board resistance and inductance may result in the HS node exceeding this stated voltage
transiently. If negative transients occur, the HS voltage must never be more negative than VDD – 15 V. For example, if VDD = 10 V, the
negative transients at HS must not exceed –5 V.

8 Detailed Description
8.1 Overview
To operate fast switching of power MOSFETs at high switching frequencies and to reduce associated switching
losses, a powerful gate driver is employed between the PWM output of controller and the gates of the power
semiconductor devices. Also, gate drivers are indispensable when it is impossible for the PWM controller to
directly drive the gates of the switching devices. With the advent of digital power, this situation is often
encountered because the PWM signal from the digital controller is often a 3.3 V logic signal which cannot
effectively turn on a power switch. Level shift circuitry is needed to boost the 3.3-V signal to the gate-drive
voltage (such as 12 V) in order to fully turn on the power device and minimize conduction losses. Traditional
buffer drive circuits based on NPN or PNP bipolar transistors in totem-pole arrangement prove inadequate with
digital power because they lack level-shifting capability. Gate drivers effectively combine both the level-shifting
and buffer-drive functions. Gate drivers also find other needs such as minimizing the effect of high-frequency
switching noise (by placing the high-current driver IC physically close to the power switch), driving gate-drive
transformers and controlling floating power-device gates, reducing power dissipation and thermal stress in
controllers by moving gate charge power losses from the controller into the driver.

8.3 Feature Description
8.3.1 Start-Up and UVLO
Both top and bottom drivers include UVLO protection circuitry which monitors the supply voltage (VDD) and
bootstrap capacitor voltage (VHB-HS) independently. The UVLO circuit inhibits each output until sufficient supply
voltage is available to turn on the external MOSFETs, and the built-in UVLO hysteresis prevents chattering
during supply voltage variations. When the supply voltage is applied to the VDD pin of the LM25101, the top and
bottom gates are held low until VDD exceeds the UVLO threshold, typically about 6.9 V. Any UVLO condition on
the bootstrap capacitor (VHB-HS) will only disable the high-side output (HO).

8.3.2 Level Shift
The level shift circuit is the interface from the high-side input to the high-side driver stage which is referenced to
the switch node (HS). The level shift allows control of the HO output which is referenced to the HS pin and
provides excellent delay matching with the low-side driver.
8.3.3 Output Stages
The output stages are the interface to the power MOSFETs in the power train. High slew rate, low resistance,
and high peak current capability of both outputs allow for efficient switching of the power MOSFETs. The lowside output stage is referenced to VSS and the high-side is referenced to HS.
8.4 Device Functional Modes
The device operates in normal mode and UVLO mode. See Start-Up and UVLO for more information on UVLO
operation mode. In normal mode when the VDD and VHB–HS are above UVLO threshold, the output stage is
dependent on the states of the HI and LI pins. Unused inputs should be tied to ground and not left open.

9 Application and Implementation
NOTE
Information in the following applications sections is not part of the TI component
specification, and TI does not warrant its accuracy or completeness. TI’s customers are
responsible for determining suitability of components for their purposes. Customers should
validate and test their design implementation to confirm system functionality.
9.1 Application Information
The LM25101 is a high voltage gate driver designed to drive both the high-side and low-side N-Channel
MOSFETs in a half or full bridge configuration or in a synchronous buck circuit. The floating high side driver is
capable of operating with supply voltages up to 100 V. This allows for N-Channel MOSFETs control in halfbridge, full-bridge, push-pull, two switch forward, and active clamp topologies. The outputs are independently
controlled. Each channel is controlled by its respective input pins (HI and LI), allowing full and independent
flexibility to control the state (ON and OFF) of the output.

9.2.3 Application Curves
Figure 22 and Figure 23 show the rising and falling time and turnon and turnoff propagation delay testing
waveform at room temperature. Each channel (HI, LI, HO, LO) is labeled and displayed on the left hand of the
waveform.
The HI and LI pins are shorted together for these test waveforms. Therefore, the propagation delay matching
between the channels can be measured and inspected.

VDD = 12 V

10 Power Supply Recommendations
The total IC power dissipation is the sum of the gate driver losses and the bootstrap diode losses. The gate
driver losses are related to the switching frequency (f), output load capacitance on LO and HO (CL), and supply
voltage (VDD), which can be roughly calculated using Equation 5.
PDGATES = 2 × f × CL × VDD2
(5)
There are some additional losses in the gate drivers due to the internal CMOS stages used to buffer the LO and
HO outputs. Figure 24 shows the measured gate driver power dissipation versus frequency and load
capacitance. At higher frequencies and load capacitance values, the power dissipation is dominated by the
power losses driving the output loads and agrees well with Equation 5. Figure 24 can be used to approximate the
power losses due to the gate drivers.
The bootstrap diode power loss is the sum of the forward bias power loss that occurs while charging the
bootstrap capacitor and the reverse bias power loss that occurs during reverse recovery. Since each of these
events happens once per cycle, the diode power loss is proportional to frequency. Larger capacitive loads
require more energy to recharge the bootstrap capacitor resulting in more losses. Higher input voltages (VIN) to
the half bridge result in higher reverse recovery losses. Figure 25 was generated based on calculations and lab
measurements of the diode recovery time and current under several operating conditions and can be used to
approximate the diode power dissipation.
The total IC power dissipation can be estimated from these plots by summing the gate drive losses with the
bootstrap diode losses for the intended application.

11 Layout
11.1 Layout Guidelines
The optimum performance of high and low-side gate drivers cannot be achieved without following certain
guidelines during circuit-board layout.
• Low ESR and ESL capacitors must be connected close to the IC, between the VDD and VSS pins and
between the HB and HS pins to support the high peak currents being drawn from VDD during start-up of the
external MOSFET.
• To prevent large voltage transients at the drain of the top MOSFET, a low ESR electrolytic capacitor must be
connected between the MOSFET drain and ground (VSS).
• To avoid large negative transients on the switch node (HS pin), the parasitic inductances must be minimized
in the source of the top MOSFET and in the drain of the bottom MOSFET (synchronous rectifier).
• Grounding Considerations:
– The first priority in designing grounding connections is to confine to a minimal physical area the high peak
currents that charge and discharge the MOSFET gate. This decreases the loop inductance and minimizes
noise issues on the gate terminal of the MOSFET. The MOSFETs should be placed as close as possible
to the gate driver.
–
The second high current path includes the bootstrap capacitor, the bootstrap diode, the local ground
referenced bypass capacitor, and low-side MOSFET body diode. The bootstrap capacitor is recharged on
a cycle-by-cycle basis through the bootstrap diode from the ground referenced VDD bypass capacitor. The
recharging occurs in a short time interval and involves high peak current. Minimizing this loop length and
area on the circuit board is important to ensure reliable operation.
Figure 26 shows a recommended layout pattern for the driver. If possible a single layer placement is preferred.
