The IXBD4410/IXBD4411
ISOSMART chipset is designed to
control the gates of two Power
MOSFETs or Power IGBTs that are
connected in a half-bridge (phaseleg) configuration for driving
multiple-phase motors, or used in
applications that require half-bridge
power circuits. The IXBD4410/
IXBD4411 is a full-feature chipset
consisting of two 16-Pin DIP or SO
devices interfaced and isolated by
two small-signal ferrite pulse
transformers. The small-signal
transformers provide greater than
1200 V isolation.
Even with commutating noise
ambients greater
than±50V/nsand
upto1200V potentials, this chipset
establishes error-free two-way
communications between the
system ground-referenced
IXBD4410 and the inverter output-
referenced IXBD4411. They incorporate undervoltage V
and overcurrent or desaturation
or VEE lockout
DD
shutdown to protect the IGBT or
Power MOSFET devices from
damage.
The chipset provides the necessary
gate drive signals to fully control the
grounded-source low-side power
device as well as the floatingsource high-side power device.
Additionally, the IXBD4410/4411
chipset provides a negative-going,
off-state gate drive signal for
improved turn-off of IGBTs or Power
MOSFETs and a system logiccompatible status fault output FLT to
indicate overcurrent or desaturation,
and undervoltage V
a status fault, both devices drive
or VEE. During
DD
their respective gate outputs at VEE,
and keep their driven MOSFETs or
IGBTs off.

This ISOSMARTTM chipset is a pair of
integrated circuits providing isolated
high- and low-side drivers for phase-leg
motor controls, or any other application
which utilizes a half bridge, 2- or 3phase drive configuration. They consist
of two drive control inputs (INL and
INH) for two Power-MOSFET/IGBT
gate-drive outputs. Both inputs operate
from a common ground and are
activated by HCMOS compatible logic
levels. The low-side output operates
near input ground, while the high-side
output operates from a floating ground
that is nominally the source connection
of the high-side phase-leg power
device. Both outputs typically provide
2A of transient current drive for fast
switching of the phase-leg power
device.

IXBD4410/IXBD4411
The full featured ISOSMART
TM
driver
chipset incorporates an IXBD4410 as
the low-side driver (Fig. 3) and an
IXBD4411 as the high-side driver (Fig.
4). When input "INL" is set to a positive
logic level, the low-side gate output
goes high (turns on); when "INH" is set
to a positive logic level, the high-side
gate drive output goes high. The highside IC is isolated from the low-side IC
by a magnetic barrier, across which the
turn on/off signal is transmitted to the
high-side gate drive. The IXBD4411
fault signal is also transmitted back to
the IXBD4410 driver via these
transformers. This isolation only
depends on the low cost communications transformer, which is designed to
withstand 1200 V or more.
There are two magnetic transmission
channels between the low- and highside IC's for bi-directional communication. One sends a signal from the
low-side IXBD4410 IC up to the highside IXBD4411 IC and the other sends
a signal back from the high-side to the
low-side IC. The signal that is sent up
controls the IXBD4411 gate-drive
output. The signal sent from the
IXBD4411 back to the IXBD4410
indicates a high-side fault has occurred
(overcurrent, or under-voltage of the
high-side + power supplies). This is
detected at the IXBD4410 driver and
sets "FLT" pin low, to indicate the highside fault.
