DESCRIPTION
The device is a high voltage half bridge driver with
built in oscillator. The frequency of the oscillator can
be programmed using external resistor and capaci-

tor. The internal circuitry of the device allows it to be
driven also by external logic signal.
The output drivers are designed to drive external nchannel power MOSFET and IGBT. The internal logic assures a dead time to avoid cross-conduction of
the power devices.
Two version are available: L6571A and L6571B.
They differ in the internal dead time: 1.25

(*)The device has an internal zener clamp between GND and VS (typical 15.6V).Therefore the circuit should not be driven by a DC low im-
pedance power source.
Note: ESD immunity for pins 6, 7 and 8 is guaranteed up to 900 V (Human Body Model)

PIN FUNCTION
N° Pin Description
1 VS Supply input voltage with internal clamp [typ. 15.6V]
L6571A L6571B
2 RF Oscillator timing resistor pin.
A buffer set alternatively to V
and GND can provide current to the external resistor RF
S
connected between pin 2 and 3.
Alternatively, the signal on pin 2 can be used also to drive another IC (i.e. another L6569/71 to
drive a full H-bridge)
3 CF Oscillator timing capacitor pin.
A capacitor connected between this pin and GND fixes (together with R
) the oscillating
F
frequency
Alternatively an external logic signal can be applied to the pin to drive the IC.
4 GND Ground
5 LVG Low side driver output.
The output stage can deliver 170mA source and 270mA sink [typ.values].
6 OUT Upper driver floating reference
7 HVG High side driver output.
The output stage can deliver 170mA source and 270mA sink [typ.values].
8 BOOT Bootstrap voltage supply.
It is the upper driver floating supply.
