MAX22700D–MAX22702D
MAX22700E–MAX22702E
Ultra-High CMTI
Isolated Gate Drivers
General Description
Benefits and Features
● Matching Propagation Delay
The MAX22700–MAX22702 are a family of single-chan-
nel isolated gate drivers with ultra-high common-mode
transient immunity (CMTI) of 300kV/µs (typ). The devices
are designed to drive silicon-carbide (SiC) or gallium-
nitride (GaN) transistors in various inverter or motor
control applications. All devices have integrated digital
galvanic isolation using Maxim’s proprietary process tech-
nology. The devices feature variants with output options
for gate driver common pin GNDB (MAX22700), Miller
clamp (MAX22701), and adjustable undervoltage-lockout
UVLO (MAX22702). In addition, variants are offered as
differential (D versions) or single-ended (E versions)
inputs. These devices transfer digital signals between
circuits with different power domains. All of the devices in
the family feature isolation for a withstand voltage rating

● Options to Support a Broad Range of Applications
• 3 Output Options: GNDB, Miller Clamp, or
Adjustable UVLO

RMS
All devices support a minimum pulse width of 20ns with a
maximum pulse width distortion of 2ns. The part-to-part
propagation delay is matched within 2ns (max) at +25°C
ambient temperature, and 5ns (max) over the -40°C
to +125°C operating temperature range. This feature
reduces the power transistor’s dead time, thus improving
overall efficiency.
• 2 Input Configurations: Single-Ended with Enable
(E versions) or Differential (D versions)

The MAX22700–MAX22702 can be used to drive SiC or
GaN FETs with different output gate drive circuitry and
B-side supply voltages. See the Typical Operating Circuits
for details.

All of the devices in the MAX22700–MAX22702 family
are available in an 8-pin, narrow-body SOIC package with
4mm of creepage and clearance. The package material
has a minimum comparative tracking index (CTI) of 600V,
which gives it a group I rating in creepage tables. All
devices are rated for operation at ambient temperatures
of -40°C to +125°C.
