DESCRIPTION

These two families of high speed drivers are designed to provide drive waveforms for complementary switches. Complementary switch configurations are commonly used in synchronous rectification circuits and active clamp/reset circuits, which can provide zero voltage switching. In order to facilitate the soft switching transitions, independently programmable delays between the two output waveforms are provided on these drivers. The delay pins also have true zero voltage sensing capability which allows immediate activation of the corresponding switch when zero voltage is applied. These devices require a PWM-type input to operate and can be interfaced with commonly available PWM controllers.

In the UC1714 series, the AUX output is inverted to allow driving a p-channel MOSFET. In the UC1715 series, the two outputs are configured in a true complementary fashion.

Note 3: Propagation delay times are measured from the 50% point of the input signal to the 10% point of the output signal’s transition with no load on outputs.

Note 4: T1 delay is defined from the 50% point of the transition edge of AUX to the 10% of the rising edge of PWR. T2 delay is defined from the 90% of the falling edge of PWR to the 50% point of the transition edge of AUX.

PIN DESCRIPTIONS

AUX: The AUX switches immediately at INPUT’s rising edge but waits through the T2 delay after INPUT’s falling edge before switching. AUX is capable of sourcing 0.5A and sinking 1.0A of drive current. See the Time Relationships diagram below for the difference between the UC1714 and UC1715 for INPUT, MAIN, and AUX. During sleep mode, AUX is inactive with a high impedance.

switches at TTL logic levels (apinput range is from 0V to 20V.

The ENBL input will place the device into sleep mode when it is a logical low. The current into VCC during the sleep mode is typically 220 A.

GND: This is the reference pin for all input voltages and the return point for all device currents. It carries the full peak sinking current from the outputs. Any tendency for the outputs to ring below GND voltage must be damped or clamped such that GND remains the most negative potential.
