Notes:
1) Exceeding these ratings may damage the device.
2) The maximum allowable power dissipation is a function of
the maximum junction temperature TJ (MAX), the junction-toambient thermal resistance θJA, and the ambient temperature
TA. The maximum allowable continuous power dissipation at
any ambient temperature is calculated by PD (MAX) = (TJ
(MAX)-TA)/θJA. Exceeding the maximum allowable power
dissipation produces an excessive die temperature, causing
the regulator to go into thermal shutdown. Internal thermal
shutdown circuitry protects the device from permanent
damage.
3) The device is not guaranteed to function outside of its
operating conditions.
4) Measured on JESD51-7, 4-layer PCB.

MP6536 - 26V, 5.5A 3-CHANNEL POWER HALF-BRIDGE
OPERATION
5V
The MP6536 is a 3-channel half-bridge driver
intended to drive a brushless DC motor. The
output is in phase with the input, and the dead
time is optimized for symmetrical performance,
regardless of load conditions.
When SHDN is low, all channels are off. When
STBYB is pulled low, it causes the outputs of all
the channels to go into high impedance. However,
when the voltage across BST1/2/3 and SW1/2/3
drops low significantly, the bottom MOSFET is
turned on to refresh the external bootstrap
capacitor. Connecting a capacitor (0.1μF or
greater) between BST and SW (as the bootstrap
capacitor) is recommended.
In order to prevent erratic operation, two undervoltage lockout (UVLO) circuits are used. One
ensures that the supply for the bottom gate drive
circuit is sufficiently high, and the other is for the
top gate driver.
Fault Protection
To protect the power MOSFETs, an internal
current limit of 5.5A is set for all MOSFETs.
When this limit is reached, all MOSFETs of the
over-current bridge channel will go into high
impedance for a fixed duration (30µs
approximately) before resuming normal operation.
Thermal monitoring is integrated into the MP6536.
If the die temperature rises above 160ºC, all
switches are turned off. The temperature must
fall below 125ºC before normal operation
resumes.
To enhance the robustness of the device under a
short-circuit condition, a capacitor can be
connected to FAULTB (see Fig. 2). The time
constant of the RC must be greater than 50ms
for the FAULTB node to reach 2V. Under a shortcircuit condition, the FAULTB node re-sets to
zero, and the part is placed in standby mode until
the voltage at STBYB is above 2V.

FIGURE 2. Fault Protection Enhancement Circuit
Fault Output
The MP6536 includes an open drain, active-low
fault indicator output (FAULTB). A fault is
indicated if one of the following conditions is
detected:
1. The current limit is tripped.
2. Thermal shutdown is tripped.
A fault on any channel causes FAULTB to pull
low. Once the fault is removed, the MP6536
resumes normal operation.
Do not apply more than 6V to FAULTB.
Error Reporting
The MP6536 has two fault monitor pins (FLT3B
and FLT2B), which are active low open-drain
outputs. They provide protection-mode signaling
to a PWM controller or another system control
device (see Table 1).
