PMIC - Gate Drivers: DGD0506FN-7 Application Field and Working PrinciplePower management integrated circuits (PMICs) play an important role in satisfying the power demands of the ever-assertive mobile applications. Especially in the current industrial world, the design of power converters has been increasingly complicated due to portable application requirements and this highly regulated market. To help tackle this complex job, the introduction of gate drivers such as DGD0506FN-7 into the market helps improve the designs of switch-mode power converters and to create a reliable output.This article elaborates on the gate driver DGD0506FN-7, also known as the Dual Gate Driver, and its application field and working principle.OverviewThe Dual Gate Driver, or DGD0506FN-7, is a multiple-channel power IC designed to provide two independent gate drives. It is designed to meet the demands of a wide range of switch-mode power supplies and multi-stage applications. The integrated gate driver, with inputs for both differential logic signals and PWM signals, reduces the number of parts needed for the design. It presents a low-power solution and high-speed operation, ensuring reliable operation.Application FieldThe DGD0506FN-7 is most accurately used to drive power switches, such as MOSFETs and IGBTs, and is typically used in switch-mode power converters, such as AC/DC, DC/DC, DC/AC, and AC/AC converters. It is also used in motor driver applications. The device can be used to drive MOSFETs and IGBTs up to 600V in a Flyback, Forward, or Half-Bridge converter design.Features and BenefitsThe DGD0506FN-7 offers up to 2A current sourced peak gate drive with a 4kV isolation voltage. Its built-in over-voltage protection and thermal shutdown help protect the system from unexpected stress. Its versatile input options allow for either 3.3V or 5V logic level inputs for both differential logic signals Lvds, and pulse width modulation (PWM). By reducing the number of parts needed for the design, the device provides a cost-efficient solution as well.Working PrincipleThe Dual Gate Driver, or DGD0506FN-7, enables the high-frequency switching of power switches, such as MOSFETs and IGBTs, by providing two independent gate drives. The device contains two separate gate drivers, each capable of providing up to 2A sourced peak current.The device takes Lvds and PWM signals as inputs. Lvds stands for low-voltage differential signaling, which allows for rapid and accurate transmission of small amount of data across printed circuit boards. PWM stands for pulse width modulation, which is an analog modulation technique used to control the width of the pulses in a pulse train.The Lvds input is designed to accept Lvds data signals, which can be supplied from a controller IC. The PWM input, on the other hand, is designed for use with traditional single-ended PWM signals that are generated from a PWM generator IC.The switching device has two output channels with each containing two output pins for controlling an IGBT or MOSFET. The DGD0506FN-7 has an integrated over-voltage protection, providing a controlled process for when the high-side output is driven to a false high voltage level.ConclusionThe Dual Gate Driver, or DGD0506FN-7, is a power IC used to drive power switches such as MOSFETs and IGBTs in switch-mode power converters. It offers a low-power solution, up to 2A current sourced peak gate drive, and high-speed operation. It takes Lvds and PWM signals as input and provides two independently-driven outputs which can be used to control an IGBT or MOSFET. With its low-cost, versatile design, and multiple features, the DGD0506FN-7 is perfect for driving power switches in a wide range of applications from AC/DC, DC/DC, DC/AC, and AC/AC converters to motor drivers.
