BTN7960BAUMA1

Overview

The BTN7960BAUMA1 is a high-current half-bridge driver from Infineon's NovalithIC family, designed for automotive and industrial applications. It integrates power MOSFETs in a PG-TO263-7-1 package. The device supports a supply voltage range of 5.5V to 28V and delivers an output current of 47A. It features logic interface control with latch functionality, slew rate control, and status flags. Protection mechanisms include overcurrent, overtemperature, short circuit, and undervoltage lockout.

Feature Summary

• Integrates high-side and low-side power MOSFETs into a single half-bridge configuration for efficient motor driving.
• Includes comprehensive protection features such as thermal shutdown, current limiting, and short-circuit detection.
• Provides status flag outputs to indicate operational states and fault conditions for system monitoring.

Applications

• DC brushed motor control in automotive systems
• Industrial actuator and valve drive circuits
• General-purpose inductive load switching

Procurement Notes

Verify the specific suffix 'BAUMA1' against official Infineon documentation to confirm pinout and electrical specifications match your design requirements. Confirm component availability status as this series may be subject to lifecycle changes. Ensure proper thermal management solutions are integrated given the high current capabilities and TO-263 package constraints.

Selection Notes

Select this component when a robust, integrated half-bridge solution is required for high-current DC motor applications. Consider the PG-TO263-7-1 package for surface mount assembly needs. Evaluate the 47A continuous current rating against peak load demands and ensure adequate heatsinking is available to maintain junction temperatures within safe operating limits during operation.

Part Context

This part belongs to Infineon's NovalithIC portfolio, which combines intelligent gate drivers with power MOSFETs. These devices are engineered for reliability in harsh environments, offering simplified design implementation by integrating control logic and power stages. The BTN7960 variant specifically targets applications requiring high current handling with built-in diagnostic capabilities.

Replacement Considerations

Direct substitutes include the BTS7960B and BTN7970BAUMA1. Verify compatibility regarding package dimensions, pin assignments, and electrical ratings before substitution. Consult official replacement guides for lifecycle transitions.
