HIP2210FRTZ-T

Gate Driver Overview

The HIP2210FRTZ-T is a high-frequency half-bridge NMOS FET gate driver from Renesas Electronics. It features a wide operating supply voltage range of 6V to 18V and supports bootstrap voltages up to 115V for driving high-side NMOS in 100V applications. The device provides 3A source and 4A sink peak output currents with non-inverting inputs. Key differentiators include a three-level PWM input architecture allowing programmable dead-time control via an external resistor, adjustable between 35ns and 350ns. It is housed in a 10-TDFN (4x4) surface-mount package.

Gate Driver Feature Summary

• Three-level PWM input interface enables precise dead-time programming through a single external resistor
• Integrated high-side bootstrap diode simplifies circuit design for half-bridge topologies
• Wide input hysteresis and HS pin tolerance provide robust noise immunity and protection against negative transients

Gate Driver Applications

• Telecommunications half-bridge and full-bridge DC/DC converters
• Three-phase BLDC motor drivers and general half-bridge motor drives
• Dual-switch forward and active clamp converter topologies
• Multiphase PWM DC/DC controllers
• Class D audio amplifiers

Gate Driver Procurement Notes

Verify the specific suffix 'T' indicates tape-and-reel packaging configuration when ordering. Confirm that the three-level logic threshold requirements align with the system's reference voltage capabilities, as this variant differs functionally from standard HI/LI input drivers like the HIP2211. Ensure the external dead-time setting resistor falls within the specified range to maintain safe switching operations.

Gate Driver Selection Notes

Select this component over standard half-bridge drivers when integrated dead-time control is required to prevent shoot-through without additional logic gates. The three-level input allows direct interfacing with advanced PWM controllers that utilize center-aligned or asymmetric modulation schemes. Consider the 10-TDFN package for compact designs requiring efficient thermal dissipation and low parasitic inductance.

Gate Driver Part Context

This part belongs to the HIP2210/HIP2211 family of 100V half-bridge drivers designed for high-efficiency power conversion. While the HIP2211 offers standard HI/LI inputs compatible with legacy parts like the ISL2111, the HIP2210 introduces specialized three-level logic for enhanced timing control. Both share similar drive strengths and voltage tolerances but serve distinct control strategy needs.

Gate Driver Replacement Considerations

The HIP2211 serves as a functional substitute if the application does not require programmable dead-time control and can utilize standard HI/LI inputs. Direct replacement requires verifying that the external circuitry supporting the three-level input is adapted for standard logic levels.
