Product details
Overview
A4919GLPTR-5-T from Allegro MicroSystems is a three-phase N-channel MOSFET gate driver IC with integrated 5 V low-dropout (LDO) regulator, operating from 5.5 V to 50 V supply, delivering high-current gate drive for BLDC motor control in battery-powered power tools and CPAP machines.
For engineers reviewing the A4919GLPTR-5-T datasheet, A4919GLPTR-5-T pinout, A4919GLPTR-5-T application, or A4919GLPTR-5-T equivalent, this page provides verified functional identity, validated LP-package pin mapping, confirmed 5 V LDO output capability, short-circuit protection architecture, and real-world motor phase fault detection behavior - all directly traceable to Allegro's A4919-DS Rev. 8 documentation.
Technical Context
The A4919GLPTR-5-T implements a charge pump–based gate drive supply (VREG ≈ 13 V) enabling full gate drive down to VBB = 7 V, with fallback operation at reduced drive strength down to 5.5 V. Its six independent TTL-compatible logic inputs (AHI/ALO/BHI/BLO/CHI/CLO) enable arbitrary commutation schemes under external microcontroller control.
Integrated protection includes per-phase drain-source voltage monitoring via programmable VDSTH pin (0.2–2.0 V threshold range), cross-conduction prevention logic, and open-drain FAULT output signaling short-to-supply, short-to-ground, undervoltage, and overtemperature events. The 5 V LDO (V5) supplies external circuitry only and is disabled during overtemperature warning.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| VBB Supply Range | 5.5 V to 50 V - supports wide-input battery systems (e.g., 2S–12S Li-ion) without external pre-regulation. |
| V5 Output Voltage | 4.85–5.25 V @ ≤70 mA - stable regulated 5 V rail for MCU, sensors, or level-shifters; requires ≥1 µF/≤250 mΩ ceramic capacitor. |
| VREG Output | 12.5–13.75 V - regulated gate drive supply enabling >10 V turn-on for N-MOSFETs even at low VBB. |
| Gate Drive Strength | RDS(on)UP = 5–13 Ω (high-side), RDS(on)DN = 1.5–4.6 Ω (low-side) - ensures fast switching of typical 5–50 mΩ power MOSFETs. |
| Fault Detection | VDS threshold programmable via VDSTH (0.2–2.0 V), ±100 mV offset tolerance - enables precise short-circuit trip point tuning per motor winding resistance. |
| Thermal Resistance | RθJA = 28 °C/W (LP package, 4-layer PCB) - enables >2 W continuous dissipation with standard thermal layout. |
| Logic Input Threshold | VIL ≤ 0.8 V, VIH ≥ 2.0 V - compatible with both 3.3 V and 5 V microcontrollers without level shifting. |
Pinout & Package
Supplied in 28-pin TSSOP with exposed thermal pad (package type LP, suffix T), lead-free with 100% matte-tin plating. Thermal pad must be soldered to PCB ground plane for thermal and electrical integrity.
| Pin | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| LSS | Low-side source return | Common return path for GLA/GLB/GLC sink current; must connect to low-impedance PCB trace to MOSFET source nodes. |
| GLC, GLB, GLA | Low-side gate drive outputs | Drive N-MOSFET gates referenced to LSS; each capable of 150 mA sink/source with <2.4 Ω on-resistance. |
| GHC, GHB, GHA | High-side gate drive outputs | Bootstrap-referenced drives for upper N-MOSFETs; output swing = VCx – 0.2 V (high), VSx + 0.3 V (low). |
| SC, SB, SA | Motor phase connections | Connect to motor windings; also serve as bootstrap capacitor negative terminals and VDS sense points. |
| CC, CB, CA | Bootstrap capacitor positive terminals | Each connects to dedicated 100–470 nF ceramic capacitor between Cx and Sx for high-side floating supply. |
| VREG | Regulated gate drive supply | 13 V nominal output powering low-side drivers and charging bootstrap caps; requires ≥10 µF bulk capacitor. |
| CP1, CP2 | Charge pump capacitor terminals | Connect 470 nF ceramic capacitor between CP1–CP2 to sustain VREG during low-VBB operation. |
| V5 | 5 V LDO output | Dedicated 5 V supply for external logic; not used internally; disabled during overtemperature warning. |
| VDSTH | VDS fault threshold programming | Analog input setting short-circuit detection level (0.2–2.0 V); high-impedance (>1 MΩ) allows resistor-divider configuration. |
| FAULT | Open-drain fault indicator | Active-high signal pulled high externally; asserts for VDS fault, VBB UVLO, or TJ > 170 °C. |
| AHI/ALO/BHI/BLO/CHI/CLO | Phase control inputs | TTL-compatible logic inputs controlling individual high/low-side drivers; internal crossover protection prevents shoot-through. |
| VBB | Main power supply | Primary input (5.5–50 V); powers all internal circuitry including LDO, charge pump, and logic; requires local 100 nF + 10 µF decoupling. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Three-phase N-MOSFET gate drive | Enables efficient, scalable BLDC motor control using discrete external FETs - avoids integrated power stage thermal limitations. |
| Programmable VDS fault threshold | Voltage-controlled trip point (0.2–2.0 V on VDSTH) allows precise short-circuit detection calibrated to motor phase resistance and bus voltage. |
| Integrated 5 V LDO regulator | Provides clean, regulated 5 V supply (4.85–5.25 V, ≤70 mA) for external microcontrollers or sensors - eliminates need for separate LDO. |
| Bootstrap charge management | Automatic bootstrap capacitor recharge via low-side conduction ensures reliable high-side turn-on without external timing circuitry. |
| Cross-conduction protection | Hardware lockout prevents simultaneous AHI/ALO, BHI/BLO, or CHI/CLO activation - eliminates shoot-through risk regardless of controller timing errors. |
Applications
| Battery-Powered Power Tools | CPAP Machines |
|---|---|

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar three-phase gate driver applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| MP6532GQ-Z | No integrated LDO; 3.3 V logic-only supply; no VDSTH programming; fixed 1.2 V VDS threshold. | Lacks programmable fault threshold and 5 V supply - requires external LDO and comparator circuit for short detection. | Choose when cost sensitivity outweighs design flexibility and diagnostic granularity. |
| DRV8305PWP | Integrated current sense amplifiers; SPI interface; no VREG or V5 output; 12 V gate drive only. | Provides real-time phase current feedback but removes analog VDSTH control and dual-supply capability. | Prefer when closed-loop torque control is required and external 5 V rail is already available. |
Compared with MP6532GQ-Z and DRV8305PWP, the A4919GLPTR-5-T uniquely combines programmable VDS fault detection, self-contained 5 V LDO, and robust 13 V gate drive regulation - making it optimal for cost-sensitive, safety-critical BLDC systems where external component count and diagnostic precision matter.

FAQ
What is the function of the V5 pin on the A4919GLPTR-5-T?
The V5 pin on the A4919GLPTR-5-T is the output of an integrated 5 V low-dropout regulator, delivering up to 70 mA for external circuitry such as microcontrollers or sensors. It is not used internally, requires ≥1 µF ceramic capacitance to GND for stability, and shuts down during overtemperature warning - ensuring safe operation during thermal faults.
Does the A4919GLPTR-5-T support sleep mode?
No, the A4919GLPTR-5-T does not support sleep mode. Sleep mode is only available on the A4919x (no-LDO) variants like A4919GLPTR-T. The A4919GLPTR-5-T maintains full functionality at all times - all gate drivers, diagnostics, and the 5 V LDO remain active even when all logic inputs are held low.
How is short-circuit protection implemented in the A4919GLPTR-5-T?
The A4919GLPTR-5-T implements per-phase short-circuit protection via drain-source voltage monitoring on each external MOSFET. The VDSTH pin accepts an analog voltage (0.2–2.0 V) to set the trip threshold, with ±100 mV offset tolerance. A fault triggers the open-drain FAULT pin and disables affected gate drives within 4.5 µs blank time.
What package type is used for the A4919GLPTR-5-T?
The A4919GLPTR-5-T uses the 28-pin TSSOP package with exposed thermal pad (Allegro package type LP). It measures 9.7 mm × 4.4 mm × 1.2 mm, is lead-free, and features 100% matte-tin leadframe plating. The thermal pad must be soldered to a PCB ground plane for thermal performance and electrical noise immunity.
Can the A4919GLPTR-5-T drive both high-side and low-side N-channel MOSFETs?
Yes, the A4919GLPTR-5-T drives six N-channel MOSFETs - three high-side (GHA/GHB/GHC) and three low-side (GLA/GLB/GLC) - using bootstrap capacitors (CA/CB/CC to SA/SB/SC) for high-side floating supply and VREG-referenced low-side drive. Integrated crossover control prevents shoot-through during switching transitions.
