Operational Notes
The LM5102 offers a unique flexibility with independently programmable delay of the rising edge for both high and low side driver outputs independently. The delays are set with resistors at the RT1 and RT2 pins, and can be adjusted from 100 ns to 600 ns. This feature reduces component count, board space and cost compared to discrete solutions for adjusting driver dead time. The wide delay programming range provides the flexibility to optimize drive signal timing for a wide range of MOSFETs and applications. The RT pins are biased at 3V and current limited to 1 mA maximum programming current. The time delay generator will accommodate resistor values from 5k to 100k with turn-on delay times that are proportional to the RT resiswww.national.com 8
tance. In addition, each RT pin is monitored by a comparator that will bypass the turn-on delay if the RT pin is pulled below the timer elimination threshold (1.8V typical). Grounding the RT pins programs the LM5102 to drive both outputs with minimum turn-on delay. STARTUP AND UVLO Both top and bottom drivers include under-voltage lockout (UVLO) protection circuitry which monitors the supply voltage (VDD) and bootstrap capacitor voltage (VHB – VHS) independently. The UVLO circuit inhibits each driver until sufficient supply voltage is available to turn-on the external MOSFETs, and the built-in hysteresis prevents chattering during supply voltage transitions. When the supply voltage is applied to VDD pin of LM5102, the top and bottom gates are

POWER DISSIPATION CONSIDERATIONS 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) and can be roughly calculated as: PDGATES = 2 • f • CL • VDD2 There are some additional losses in the gate drivers due to the internal CMOS stages used to buffer the LO and HO outputs. The following plot 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 the above equation. This plot can be used to approximate the power losses due to the gate drivers. Gate Driver Power Dissipation (LO + HO) VCC = 12V, Neglecting Diode Losses
held low until VDD exceeds UVLO threshold, typically about 6.9V. Any UVLO condition on the bootstrap capacitor will disable only the high side output (HO). LAYOUT CONSIDERATIONS The optimum performance of high and low side gate drivers cannot be achieved without taking due considerations during circuit board layout. Following points are emphasized. 1. A low ESR/ESL capacitor must be connected close to the IC, and between VDD and VSS pins and between HB and HS pins to support high peak currents being drawn from VDD during turn-on 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 MOSFET drain and ground (VSS). 3. In order to avoid large negative transients on the switch node (HS) pin, the parasitic inductances in the source of top MOSFET and in the drain of the bottom MOSFET (synchronous rectifier) must be minimized. 4. Grounding considerations: a) The first priority in designing grounding connections is to confine the high peak currents from charging and discharging the MOSFET gate in a minimal physical area. This will decrease the loop inductance and minimize noise issues on the gate terminal of the MOSFET. The MOSFETs should be placed as close as possible to the gate driver. b) 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 the 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. 5. The resistors on the RT1 and RT2 timer pins must be placed very close to the IC and seperated from high current paths to avoid noise coupling to the time delay generator which could disrupt timer operation.

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 current to recharge the bootstrap capacitor resulting in more losses. Higher input voltages (VIN) to the half bridge result in higher reverse recovery losses. The following plot was generated based on calculations and lab measurements of the diode recovery time and current under several operating conditions. This can be useful for approximating the diode power dissipation.

Diode Power Dissipation VIN = 80V
The total IC power dissipation can be estimated from the above plots by summing the gate drive losses with the bootstrap diode losses for the intended application. Because the diode losses can be significant, an external diode placed in parallel with the internal bootstrap diode (refer to Figure 4) and can be helpful in removing power from the IC. For this to be effective, the external diode must be placed close to the IC to minimize series inductance and have a significantly lower forward voltage drop than the internal diode.
