FEATURES
DESCRIPTION
•
•
Operating Supply Voltage 6V–60V
The DRV8303 is a gate driver IC for three phase
motor drive applications. It provides three half bridge
drivers, each capable of driving two N-type
MOSFETs, one for the high-side and one for the low
side. It supports up to 2.3A sink and 1.7A source
peak current capability and only needs a single power
supply with a wide range from 6V to 60V. The
DRV8303 uses bootstrap gate drivers with trickle
charge circuitry to support 100% duty cycle. The gate
driver uses automatic hand shaking when high side
FET or low side FET is switching to prevent current
shoot through. Vds of FETs is sensed to protect
external power stage during overcurrent conditions.
