EVSTGAP2SICSNC

EVSTGAP2SICSNC is a half bridge evaluation board designed to evaluate the STGAP2SICSNC isolated single gate driver. The gate driver is characterized by 4 A current capability and rail-to-rail outputs, making the device suitable also for high power inverter applications such as motor drivers in industrial applications equipped with SiC power switch. The configuration featuring single output pin and Miller CLAMP function allow avoiding gate spikes during fast commutations in half-bridge topologies. The device integrates protection functions: UVLO and thermal shut down are included to easily design high reliability systems. Dual input pins allow choosing the control signal polarity and implementing HW interlocking protection to avoid cross-conduction in case of controller's malfunction. The device allows implementing negative gate driving, and the on-board isolated DC-DC converters allow working with optimized driving voltage for SiC.
