UCC27524A1-Q1 Dual 5-A, High-Speed, Low-Side Gate Driver
With Negative Input Voltage Capability
1 Features
3 Description
•
•
The UCC27524A1-Q1 device is a dual-channel, highspeed, low-side, gate-driver device capable of
effectively driving MOSFET and IGBT power
switches. The UCC27524A1-Q1 device is a variant of
the UCC2752x family. The UCC27524A1-Q1 device
adds the ability to handle –5 V directly at the input
pins for increased robustness. The UCC27524A1-Q1
device is a dual, non-inverting driver. Using a design
that inherently minimizes shoot-through current, the
UCC27524A1-Q1 device is capable of delivering
high-peak current pulses of up to 5-A source and 5-A
sink into capacitive loads along with rail-to-rail drive
capability and extremely small propagation delay
(typically 13 ns). In addition, the drivers feature
matched, internal-propagation delays between the
two channels which are very well suited for
applications requiring dual-gate drives with critical
timing, such as synchronous rectifiers. This also
enables connecting two channels in parallel to
effectively increase current-drive capability or driving
two switches in parallel with a single input signal. The
input pin thresholds are based on TTL and CMOS
compatible low-voltage logic, which is fixed and
independent of the VDD supply voltage. Wide
hysteresis between the high and low thresholds offers
excellent noise immunity.

5 Description (continued)
For protection purposes, internal pull-up and pull-down resistors on the input pins of the UCC27524A1-Q1 device
ensure that outputs are held LOW when input pins are in floating condition. The UCC27524A1-Q1 device
features enable pins (ENA and ENB) to have better control of the operation of the driver applications. The pins
are internally pulled up to VDD for active-high logic and are left open for standard operation.
The UCC27524A1-Q1 devices is available in a MSOP-PowerPAD-8 with exposed pad (DGN) package.

8.3 Feature Description
8.3.1 Operating Supply Current
The UCC27524A1-Q1 devices feature very low quiescent IDD currents. The typical operating-supply current in
UVLO state and fully-on state (under static and switching conditions) are summarized in Figure 3, Figure 4, and
Figure 5. The IDD current when the device is fully on and outputs are in a static state (DC high or DC low, see
Figure 4) represents lowest quiescent IDD current when all the internal logic circuits of the device are fully
operational. The total supply current is the sum of the quiescent IDD current, the average IOUT current because of
switching, and finally any current related to pullup resistors on the enable pins (see Functional Block Diagram).
Knowing the operating frequency (fSW) and the MOSFET gate (QG) charge at the drive voltage being used, the
average IOUT current can be calculated as product of QG and fSW.
A complete characterization of the IDD current as a function of switching frequency at different VDD bias voltages
under 1.8-nF switching load in both channels is provided in Figure 15. The strikingly linear variation and close
correlation with theoretical value of average IOUT indicates negligible shoot-through inside the gate-driver device
attesting to its high-speed characteristics.

Feature Description (continued)
8.3.2 Input Stage
The input pins of the UCC27524A1-Q1 gate-driver devices are based on a TTL and CMOS compatible inputthreshold logic that is independent of the VDD supply voltage. With typically high threshold = 2.1 V and typically
low threshold = 1.2 V, the logic level thresholds are conveniently driven with PWM control signals derived from
3.3-V and 5-V digital power-controller devices. Wider hysteresis (typ 0.9 V) offers enhanced noise immunity
compared to traditional TTL logic implementations, where the hysteresis is typically less than 0.5 V.
UCC27524A1-Q1 devices also feature tight control of the input pin threshold voltage levels which eases system
design considerations and ensures stable operation across temperature (refer to Figure 7). The very low input
capacitance on these pins reduces loading and increases switching speed.
The UCC27524A1-Q1 device features an important protection feature that holds the output of a channel when
the respective pin is in a floating condition. This is achieved using GND pulldown resistors on all of the noninverting input pins (INA, INB), as shown in the device block diagrams.
The input stage of each driver is driven by a signal with a short rise or fall time. This condition is satisfied in
typical power supply applications, where the input signals are provided by a PWM controller or logic gates with
fast transition times (
