FAN7380M

Gate Driver Overview

The FAN7380M is a monolithic half-bridge gate driver IC designed for driving N-channel MOSFETs and IGBTs. It operates within a supply voltage range of 10 V to 20 V, supporting logic inputs with VIL of 0.8 V and VIH of 2.5 V. The device provides peak output currents of 90 mA (sink) and 180 mA (source). Typical switching times are 230 ns rise time and 90 ns fall time. It features a maximum high-side bootstrap voltage of 600 V and dissipates up to 625 mW. The component is housed in an 8-SOIC package and supports non-inverting input configurations.

Gate Driver Feature Summary

• Integrated half-bridge configuration for independent or synchronous drive applications
• Supports high-voltage operation with a 600 V maximum high-side rating
• Includes built-in under-voltage lockout protection mechanisms

Gate Driver Applications

• Motor control systems requiring isolated gate driving
• Power conversion circuits utilizing MOSFETs or IGBTs
• Industrial inverters and AC/DC converters

Gate Driver Procurement Notes

Verify the specific suffix against manufacturer documentation to confirm packaging format and tape/reel specifications. Ensure the ordered variant matches the required operating temperature range and pinout compatibility for the target PCB layout. Cross-reference the datasheet revision date to confirm current electrical characteristics and compliance status.

Gate Driver Selection Notes

Select this component when a robust half-bridge solution is needed for medium-power switching applications. The 180 mA source current capability ensures fast turn-on speeds for capacitive loads. Verify that the system's logic levels align with the specified 0.8 V and 2.5 V thresholds for reliable signal interpretation without additional level shifting.

Gate Driver Part Context

This part belongs to the FAN7380 series of half-bridge gate drivers from onsemi. It serves as a standalone driver unit often used in conjunction with other power management components. The series is engineered for reliability in harsh industrial environments, providing a compact alternative to discrete driver solutions.

Gate Driver Replacement Considerations

The FAN7380MX is a documented substitute variant within the same family, differing primarily in packaging style.
