EVLSTGAP3S6S

EVLSTGAP3S6S is a half-bridge evaluation board designed to evaluate the STGAP3S6S isolated single gate driver. The STGAP3S6S is characterized by 6 A current capability, rail-to-rail outputs and optimized UVLO and DESAT protection thresholds for SiC MOSFETS, which makes the device optimal for high-power motor drivers in industrial applications. The gate driver has a single output pin and a driver line for an external Miller CLAMP N-channel MOSFET, which optimizes positive and negative gate spikes suppression during fast commutations in half-bridge topologies. The board is supplied by the 5V VAUX connection, which fed the isolated DC-DC converters for the low-side and high-side driving sections. The gate drivers can be directly supplied by VAUX if a 5V MCU is used, or by the onboard linear regulator if a 3.3V MCU is used. The PWM and reset inputs can be easily controlled through dedicated connectors while diagnostic outputs are connected to an onboard LED.

• Half-bridge configuration
• High-voltage rail up to 520V (limited by the MOSFET’s and capacitor’s rating)
• SCTH60N120G2-7 SiC MOSFETs: 1200V, 52mohm, 60A
• Compatible with 5V and 3.3V MCUs
• VDD logic supplied by onboard-generated 3.3V or VAUX = 5V
• Easy jumper selection of driving voltage configuration: 19/0V; +19/-4.7V; +17/0V; +17/-4.7V
• Fault LED indicators
• Maximum working voltage across isolation: 1200V

Įspėjimai

The kit is not electrically isolated from the high-voltage supply DC input. No insulation is ensured between the accessible parts and the high voltage.
