DRV8162LDGSR

Overview

The DRV8162LDGSR is a smart gate driver manufactured by Texas Instruments, designed for high-voltage motor control applications. It integrates a single half-bridge driver with Short Circuit Protection (STO) functionality. The device operates within a supply voltage range of 8V to 20V and supports junction temperatures from -40°C to +125°C. Packaged in a 20-pin VSSOP (DGS) format, it drives N-channel MOSFETs in a half-bridge configuration, accommodating high-side source/drain voltages up to 102V absolute maximum.

Feature Summary

• Integrates short circuit protection (STO) functionality for enhanced system reliability
• Capable of driving two N-channel MOSFETs in a half-bridge configuration
• Supports high-side MOSFET source/drain voltages up to 102V absolute maximum

Applications

• Industrial motor drives
• High-voltage switching applications
• Smart power systems requiring integrated protection

Procurement Notes

Verify the package type is VSSOP (DGS) with 20 pins. Confirm the operating temperature range covers -40°C to +125°C. Ensure the design accounts for the 102V absolute maximum rating for high-side MOSFETs. Check for RoHS compliance and moisture sensitivity level requirements during handling.

Selection Notes

Select this component when a single half-bridge driver with integrated short-circuit protection is required. It is suitable for applications needing to drive N-channel MOSFETs with high voltage tolerance. Consider the 20-pin VSSOP package constraints for PCB layout. Verify that the supply voltage fits within the 8V to 20V operational window.

Part Context

This part belongs to the DRV8162 family of smart gate drivers from Texas Instruments. It is distinct from the DAC8162 series, which are digital-to-analog converters. The DRV8162LDGSR specifically focuses on power switching and motor control rather than signal conversion.

Replacement Considerations
