Product details
Overview
2EDN8523RXTMA1 from Infineon Technologies is a dual-channel, inverting, 8 V UVLO gate driver IC designed for high-frequency MOSFET and GaN power stage control in SMPS topologies. It delivers 5 A sink/source per channel, 17 ns propagation delay, 1 ns channel-to-channel matching, and -10 V input robustness-enabling parallel channel operation and pulse-transformer interfacing in server and telecom DC-DC converters.
For engineers reviewing the 2EDN8523RXTMA1 datasheet, 2EDN8523RXTMA1 pinout, 2EDN8523RXTMA1 application, or 2EDN8523RXTMA1 equivalent, key selection criteria include UVLO threshold (8 V), inverting logic configuration, TSSOP-8 package compatibility, reverse current robustness (5 A), and rail-to-rail output stage performance under 4.5–20 V supply.
Technical Context
This driver implements independent, LV-TTL/CMOS-compatible (3.3 V) control inputs with -5 V to +20 V absolute input voltage range and -10 V latch-up immunity. Its true rail-to-rail output stage achieves 0.7 Ω high-side and 0.55 Ω low-side on-resistance, enabling efficient switching of OptiMOS™, CoolMOS™, Superjunction MOSFETs, IGBTs, and GaN devices.
The 8 V UVLO ensures immediate shutdown during supply brownout, decoupling protection from external supervisors. Tight 1 ns channel-to-channel delay matching allows safe paralleling of both outputs for 10 A aggregate drive strength without timing skew-induced shoot-through risk.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Output Drive Strength | 5 A sink/source per channel-supports fast turn-on/turn-off of high-Qg GaN and Si MOSFETs without external buffers. |
| Propagation Delay | 17 ns typ.-enables stable operation at >1 MHz switching frequencies in LLC and interleaved PFC designs. |
| Channel Matching | 1 ns typ. channel-to-channel delay-permits parallel use of both outputs for 10 A drive without added dead-time margin. |
| UVLO Threshold | 8 V (rising), 7.5 V (falling)-provides robust gate drive cutoff before MOSFET threshold degradation occurs under low-VDD conditions. |
| Input Voltage Range | -5 V to +20 V-tolerates ground bounce and transformer-coupled drive transients without latch-up. |
| Supply Range | 4.5 V to 20 V-supports wide-input industrial and telecom SMPS rails including 12 V and 15 V bias supplies. |
| Logic Type | Inverting-INA/INB high produces OUTA/OUTB low; matches common controller PWM polarity for synchronous rectification. |
Pinout & Package
2EDN8523RXTMA1 uses the PG-TSSOP-8 package (8-pin, 3.0 × 4.4 mm, 0.65 mm pitch) with exposed thermal pad connected to GND. Pin 1 is ENA; pin numbering follows standard TSSOP orientation (counterclockwise from index mark).
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1 ENA | Enable input, Channel A | Active-high logic enable; low forces OUTA low regardless of INA-critical for fault-safe shutdown coordination. |
| 2 INA | Inverting input, Channel A | LV-TTL/CMOS-compatible; high → OUTA low; supports direct connection to microcontroller or PWM controller outputs. |
| 3 GND | Power and signal reference | Primary ground return; exposed pad must be soldered to PCB GND plane for thermal and EMI performance. |
| 4 INB | Inverting input, Channel B | Independent control input for second channel; enables asymmetric or phase-shifted drive in multi-phase topologies. |
| 5 OUTB | Driver output, Channel B | Rail-to-rail, 5 A capable output; drives gate of high-side or low-side switch directly-no external pull-up/down needed. |
| 6 VDD | Positive supply input | 4.5–20 V bias rail; internal UVLO monitors this node; decoupling capacitor required within 5 mm of pin. |
| 7 OUTA | Driver output, Channel A | Matched to OUTB in timing and drive strength; enables precise dead-time control when used with complementary signals. |
| 8 ENB | Enable input, Channel B | Independent enable for Channel B-allows dynamic channel disable for burst-mode or light-load efficiency optimization. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| 5 A reverse current robustness | Eliminates need for external Schottky diodes at outputs-reduces BOM count and layout area in synchronous rectifier stages. |
| 1 ns channel-to-channel delay matching | Enables safe parallel operation of both outputs for 10 A peak drive-avoids timing skew-induced shoot-through in high-current half-bridges. |
| -10 V input pin robustness | Prevents latch-up during ground bounce events in through-hole MOSFET layouts or pulse-transformer drive-improves system-level reliability. |
| Industry-standard TSSOP-8 pinout | Direct drop-in replacement for legacy drivers (e.g., IR2110 variants) without PCB redesign-accelerates design reuse and qualification. |
| 8 V UVLO with hysteresis | Guarantees gate drive cutoff before MOSFET VGS(th) drops below safe conduction threshold-prevents linear-mode failure during brownout. |
Applications
| Server SMPS | Telecom DC-DC Converters |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar dual-channel gate driver applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| 2EDN7523RXTMA1 | 4.2 V UVLO threshold instead of 8 V; identical pinout, timing, and drive strength. | Better suited for 5 V bias rails or systems requiring earlier UVLO activation to protect low-threshold SiC devices. | Select when primary supply is ≤6 V or when tighter UVLO hysteresis is required for marginal input conditions. |
| UCC27524ADRTVR | Non-inverting logic, 5 A drive, but only 4.5–18 V supply range and no -10 V input rating. | Lacks pulse-transformer interface robustness and has higher propagation delay (25 ns) limiting >500 kHz use. | Choose only for cost-sensitive, non-isolated 3.3 V controller interfaces where input transient immunity is not critical. |
Compared with 2EDN7523RXTMA1, the 8 V UVLO provides higher noise margin in 12 V-biased telecom systems; versus UCC27524ADRTVR, it offers superior transient immunity and tighter timing for GaN/SiC high-frequency designs.

FAQ
What is the logic configuration of 2EDN8523RXTMA1?
2EDN8523RXTMA1 features inverting logic: a high signal on INA or INB forces the corresponding output (OUTA or OUTB) low. This matches standard PWM controller output polarity for synchronous rectification and half-bridge configurations. The logic table is confirmed in Infineon's datasheet Rev. 2.7, Table 2.
Does 2EDN8523RXTMA1 support parallel channel operation?
Yes-its 1 ns typical channel-to-channel propagation delay matching enables safe parallel connection of OUTA and OUTB for combined 10 A peak drive. This is validated in the datasheet's "Features" section and supported by rail-to-rail output architecture with matched on-resistances (0.7 Ω high-side, 0.55 Ω low-side).
What package type does 2EDN8523RXTMA1 use?
2EDN8523RXTMA1 uses the PG-TSSOP-8 package (3.0 × 4.4 mm, 0.65 mm pitch) with exposed thermal pad. Pinout matches industry-standard TSSOP-8 layout, and the exposed pad must be soldered to a GND plane for thermal dissipation and EMI control, per datasheet Section 9.2.
Can 2EDN8523RXTMA1 drive GaN transistors directly?
Yes-it delivers 5 A source/sink current with 5 ns slew rate and 17 ns propagation delay, optimized for GaN HEMTs with low gate charge (e.g., <10 nC). Its 4.5–20 V supply range and rail-to-rail output stage allow direct gate drive without level-shifting, as confirmed in the "Typical Applications" and "Electrical Characteristics" sections of the datasheet.
