Product details
Overview
1EDN8511BXTSA1 from Infineon Technologies is a single-channel low-side gate driver IC designed to drive normal-level and superjunction MOSFETs (e.g., CoolMOS™) and GaN HEMTs in high-efficiency power stages. It delivers 4 A source / 8 A sink peak output current, features 19 ns typical propagation delay with ±6/–4 ns accuracy, and incorporates 8.0 V / 7.0 V UVLO thresholds - enabling robust operation in industrial SMPS and solar micro-inverters.
For engineers reviewing the 1EDN8511BXTSA1 datasheet, 1EDN8511BXTSA1 pinout, 1EDN8511BXTSA1 application, or 1EDN8511BXTSA1 equivalent, key selection criteria include its separated source/sink outputs, –10 V input voltage robustness, 5 A reverse current tolerance, rail-to-rail drive capability, and SOT23-6 package compatibility with industry-standard layout practices.
Technical Context
The 1EDN8511BXTSA1 implements a complementary MOS rail-to-rail output stage with discrete p-channel (source) and n-channel (sink) drivers, enabling true "brake-before-make" switching essential for half-bridge topologies. Its dual-input logic architecture (IN+, IN–) provides differential control with internal pull-up/pull-down biasing to prevent unintended turn-on during power-up or floating inputs.
UVLO is set at 8.0 V (ON) / 7.0 V (OFF), optimized for normal-level MOSFET gate thresholds, and integrated active filters suppress noise-induced false triggering. Input hysteresis remains stable at 1.1 V across 4.5–20 V supply range, and output impedance is specified at ≤0.85 Ω (source) and ≤0.35 Ω (sink).
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Output Drive | 4 A source / 8 A sink peak - enables fast turn-on/turn-off of large gate capacitance MOSFETs while maintaining asymmetrical timing for shoot-through prevention. |
| Propagation Delay | 19 ns typ. - minimizes timing uncertainty in high-frequency (>500 kHz) switching applications such as DC-DC converters and EV chargers. |
| UVLO Threshold | 8.0 V ON / 7.0 V OFF - prevents MOSFET linear-mode operation under marginal supply conditions, protecting against thermal runaway in industrial power supplies. |
| Input Voltage Range | –10 V to VDD+0.3 V - withstands ground bounce up to 10 V negative swing without ESD structure conduction or latch-up. |
| Reverse Current Rating | 5 A - safely handles reflected energy from inductive loads or cross-conduction events without damage or functional interruption. |
| Supply Voltage Range | 4.5 V to 20 V - supports wide-bus designs including 12 V and 15 V control rails while delivering full output current capability. |
Pinout & Package
1EDN8511BXTSA1 is housed in PG-SOT23-6-2 - a leaded, surface-mount package with 6 pins, JEDEC-compliant footprint, and industrial-grade thermal performance (RthJA = 180 K/W). The package supports reflow soldering and offers mechanical robustness for high-vibration environments.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1 VDD | Positive supply input | Accepts 4.5–20 V rail; powers internal logic and output stage; requires local 100 nF decoupling to GND. |
| 2 OUT_SRC | Source output terminal | Drives gate high via p-channel MOS; low-impedance path (<0.85 Ω) ensures rapid turn-on with minimal voltage drop. |
| 3 OUT_SNK | Sink output terminal | Drives gate low via n-channel MOS; stronger 8 A sink capability enables faster turn-off than turn-on for safe half-bridge commutation. |
| 4 GND | Power and signal reference | Common return for VDD, inputs, and outputs; must be low-inductance connection to minimize ground bounce. |
| 5 IN− | Inverting logic input | Internally pulled up; high or open → forces output low; enables enable/disable control or differential interface with IN+. |
| 6 IN+ | Non-inverting logic input | Internally pulled down; low or open → forces output low; differential pair with IN− provides noise-immune gate control. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Rail-to-rail output stage | True 0–VDD swing enabled by complementary p/n-MOS drivers - eliminates source-follower voltage loss and ensures full gate overdrive. |
| Dual independent output terminals | Separated OUT_SRC and OUT_SNK pins allow external Rg,on/Rg,off tuning - critical for optimizing switching speed and EMI in hard-switched topologies. |
| Input hysteresis | 1.1 V typical, supply-independent - rejects noise on controller signals without requiring external Schmitt triggers or RC filtering. |
| UVLO with hysteresis | 8.0 V ON / 7.0 V OFF (1 V hysteresis) - guarantees clean power-up sequencing and prevents erratic gate behavior during brown-out conditions. |
| Active output disable | Output held low during UVLO, startup, or floating inputs - eliminates shoot-through risk in unpowered or undervolted states. |
Applications
| Industrial SMPS | Solar Micro-Inverters |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar low-side gate driver applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| 1EDN7511BXTSA1 | 4.2 V / 3.9 V UVLO; identical pinout and package; same 4 A/8 A drive but optimized for logic-level MOSFETs. | Targeted at 5 V control rails and logic-level OptiMOS™; unsuitable for 8–10 V gate drive requirements of normal-level devices. | Select when driving logic-level MOSFETs below 4.5 V threshold; not interchangeable without UVLO and gate drive margin review. |
| UCC27517DBVR | Single-output (common OUT), 4 A/4 A symmetric drive, 17 ns delay, no separated source/sink pins; SO-6 package. | Lacks independent Rg,on/Rg,off tuning; limited to applications where turn-on/turn-off symmetry is acceptable. | Choose for cost-sensitive, space-constrained designs where brake-before-make timing is not required and UVLO is externally managed. |
Compared with 1EDN7511BXTSA1 and UCC27517DBVR, the 1EDN8511BXTSA1 uniquely combines 8 V UVLO, separated source/sink outputs, and –10 V input tolerance - making it the only option among the three qualified for robust, high-reliability normal-level MOSFET and GaN drive in industrial and automotive-adjacent systems.

FAQ
What is the recommended gate resistor configuration for 1EDN8511BXTSA1?
Use separate resistors: Rg,on between OUT_SRC and MOSFET gate, and Rg,off between OUT_SNK and gate. Typical values range from 2.2 Ω to 10 Ω depending on switching speed and EMI requirements. Do not short OUT_SRC and OUT_SNK - they are electrically isolated internal nodes.
Does 1EDN8511BXTSA1 support 3.3 V logic inputs?
Yes. Its LV-TTL-compatible inputs accept 3.3 V logic levels with guaranteed recognition: IN+ low threshold is ≤0.8 V, high threshold ≥1.7 V; IN− operates inversely. Input hysteresis of 1.1 V ensures noise immunity without external components.
Can 1EDN8511BXTSA1 drive GaN HEMTs reliably?
Yes. Its 4 A/8 A peak drive, 19 ns propagation delay, and rail-to-rail output voltage swing match GaN device requirements. The –10 V input tolerance and 5 A reverse current rating further protect against gate oscillation and transient stress common in GaN half-bridges.
Is the exposed pad of 1EDN8511BXTSA1 internally connected?
No. The PG-SOT23-6-2 package used for 1EDN8511BXTSA1 has no exposed thermal pad. That feature applies only to the WSON-6 variant (e.g., 1EDN7512G). Thermal dissipation relies on standard PCB copper area connected to Pin 4 (GND).
