True differential input comes with inherent shoot through protection by preventing both low and high side to
be on at the same time. It also provides noise immunity against ground bounce. The input stage is designed to
operate reliably against –8/+15 V ground voltage drift. Input logic hysteresis also helps combat disturbances to
the input signal.
3.3
Driver Outputs
The low output impedances allow fast transition of the load transistor. Specifically, the ultra-low impedance
pull down resistances, typically ꢂ.ꢃ Ω for the high side and ꢂ.ꢄꢅ Ω for the low side, keep the gate of the load
transistor down during fast transient events – avoiding dv/dt induced re-turn-on.
3.4
Under Voltage Lockout ꢀUVLOꢁ
The under voltage lockout function ensures that the output can be switched to its high level only if the supply
voltage exceeds the UVLO rising threshold voltage. Thus it can be guaranteed, that the switch transistor is not
switched on if the driving voltage is too low to completely switch on the device, thereby avoiding excessive
power dissipation. The UVLO level is set to a typical value of 7.0 V with 0.5 V hysteresis for supply voltage (VDD)
and 5.75 V with 0.25 V hysteresis for high side boot voltage (VHB).
UVLO threshold trigger is synchronous. The clock gating ensures minimum pulse width set by the controller is
obeyed at all times. This increases robustness of the integrated boot diode due to the controllability of the
reserve recovery behavior.
3.5
Minimum Pulse Width
The device responds to input level according to the truth table in section 3.2 as long as the logic signal complies
with the minimum pulse width requirement. Signal pulse longer than the minimum allowable input pulse width
yields valid output. Any output in response to shorter pulses or glitches should be disregarded and filtered out
by the user. Under all allowable operation above input minimum pulse width of 40ns, the output behaves one
to one to the input with minimal pulse width distortion.
