Product details
Overview
2EDN8523RXUMA1 from Infineon is a dual-channel, inverting, 8 V UVLO gate driver IC for high-speed MOSFET and GaN power devices, featuring 5 A source/sink capability per channel, 17 ns propagation delay, 1 ns channel-to-channel matching, and rail-to-rail output stage with 0.7 Ω high-side and 0.55 Ω low-side on-resistance - deployed in server SMPS and telecom DC-DC converters.
For engineers reviewing the 2EDN8523RXUMA1 datasheet, 2EDN8523RXUMA1 pinout, 2EDN8523RXUMA1 application, or 2EDN8523RXUMA1 equivalent, key selection criteria include UVLO threshold (8 V), input logic type (inverting), package (PG-TSSOP-8), reverse current robustness (−5 A), and parallel-channel timing accuracy (1 ns).
Technical Context
The device implements two independent, LV-TTL/CMOS-compatible (3.3 V) input channels with −5 V to +20 V absolute input voltage tolerance and −10 V input pin robustness against ground bounce-induced latch-up. Each channel drives logic- or normal-level MOSFETs, IGBTs, and GaN HEMTs via true rail-to-rail output stages.
Its 4.2 V/8 V selectable UVLO ensures immediate output disable during supply droop, decoupling protection from external supervisors. Tight 1 ns channel-to-channel propagation delay matching enables safe paralleling of both outputs for 10 A combined drive strength without skew-induced shoot-through risk.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Output Drive Strength | ±5 A source/sink per channel - supports fast switching of high-Qg GaN and Superjunction MOSFETs without external buffers. |
| Propagation Delay | 17 ns typ. - enables >2 MHz switching in LLC and ZVS topologies with precise timing control. |
| Channel Matching | 1 ns typ. channel-to-channel delay - allows parallel operation of both outputs for 10 A peak drive without timing skew. |
| UVLO Threshold | 8 V - provides robust turn-off margin above typical 5 V bias rails, preventing erratic operation during brown-out. |
| Input Voltage Range | −5 V to +20 V - withstands negative transients from pulse transformer coupling or PCB ground bounce. |
| Output On-Resistance | 0.7 Ω (high-side), 0.55 Ω (low-side) - minimizes conduction loss and self-heating during high-duty-cycle operation. |
| Reverse Current Rating | −5 A - eliminates need for external Schottky diodes at outputs, reducing BOM count and layout area. |
Pinout & Package
2EDN8523RXUMA1 uses the PG-TSSOP-8 package (8-pin, exposed thermal pad), optimized for space-constrained industrial and telecom power supplies. The exposed pad must be soldered to GND for thermal and electrical integrity.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1 ENA | Enable input, Channel A | Active-high logic enable; low forces OUTA low regardless of INA state - critical for fault-safe shutdown coordination. |
| 2 INA | Inverting input signal, Channel A | LV-TTL/CMOS-compatible input; logic high produces low output - matches inverted PWM signals from controllers. |
| 3 GND | Power and signal ground | Reference for all inputs/outputs; exposed pad connects here for thermal dissipation and noise immunity. |
| 4 INB | Inverting input signal, Channel B | Independent inverted control path for second switch - enables asymmetric or interleaved half-bridge configurations. |
| 5 OUTB | Driver output, Channel B | Low-impedance push-pull stage capable of ±5 A - directly drives gate of high-capacitance power devices. |
| 6 VDD | Positive supply voltage | 4.5 V to 20 V operating range - supports wide-input auxiliary supplies and eliminates need for LDO pre-regulation. |
| 7 OUTA | Driver output, Channel A | Rail-to-rail output with 0.7 Ω/0.55 Ω on-resistance - ensures fast rise/fall times even under heavy capacitive loading. |
| 8 ENB | Enable input, Channel B | Independent enable for OUTB - enables phase-shedding or dynamic channel disabling in multi-phase converters. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| 1 ns channel-to-channel delay matching | Enables safe parallel use of both outputs for 10 A total drive without skew-induced shoot-through risk. |
| −10 V input pin robustness | Prevents latch-up during ground bounce events common in high-dI/dt through-hole MOSFET layouts. |
| 8 V UVLO with fast release | Guarantees clean, deterministic output disable below 8 V - avoids partial turn-on during supply recovery. |
| −5 A reverse current capability | Eliminates external Schottky clamps at outputs, simplifying layout and improving reliability in synchronous rectification. |
| Industry-standard TSSOP-8 pinout | Allows drop-in replacement of legacy drivers without PCB redesign - accelerates qualification in existing platforms. |

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 |
|---|---|---|---|
| UCC27611DR | Non-inverting logic, 5.5 V UVLO, 4 A drive, SOIC-8 package | Lacks inverting input and 8 V UVLO; unsuitable for pulse-transformer-coupled control or brown-out-prone 48 V telecom rails | Select only if system uses non-inverted PWM and operates within tight 5–18 V supply range. |
| ADP3654ARZ-R7 | Fixed non-inverting logic, 10.5 V UVLO, 4 A drive, SOIC-8 | Higher UVLO threshold limits usable input voltage headroom; no reverse current rating specified | Prefer when overvoltage protection priority exceeds reverse current robustness or inverting logic needs. |
Compared with UCC27611DR and ADP3654ARZ-R7, 2EDN8523RXUMA1 uniquely combines inverting logic, 8 V UVLO, −5 A reverse current handling, and 1 ns channel matching - making it the only choice for high-reliability telecom and server SMPS requiring pulse-transformer isolation and parallel-channel operation.

FAQ
Is 2EDN8523RXUMA1 pin-compatible with earlier 2EDN752x variants?
Yes - all 2EDN752x/2EDN852x variants share identical PG-TSSOP-8 pinout and footprint. The "X" in 2EDN8523RXUMA1 denotes the inverting logic version with 8 V UVLO; only the marking code and internal UVLO threshold differ. No PCB change is required for migration from 2EDN7523R.
What is the maximum recommended gate resistance for driving 100 nC GaN devices?
With 5 A peak drive and 17 ns propagation delay, a 2.2 Ω gate resistor is recommended for 100 nC GaN HEMTs to achieve <25 ns rise time while limiting peak current to ~9 A and maintaining stability. Lower values may cause ringing; higher values degrade switching speed and efficiency.
Does the exposed thermal pad require solder paste stencil aperture?
Yes - the exposed pad must be fully soldered to a solid GND copper pour using a 70–80% open-area stencil aperture. Thermal resistance drops from 52 °C/W (no pad connection) to 32 °C/W with proper pad soldering, essential for sustained 5 A output operation at 85 °C ambient.
Can ENA and ENB be tied together for single-enable operation?
Yes - ENA and ENB can be shorted externally to a single controller enable signal. Both pins have identical electrical specs (−5 V to +20 V tolerance, CMOS-compatible), and doing so maintains full 5 A per channel drive capability while simplifying control logic in single-phase designs.
