Product details
Overview
AUIRS2117S from Infineon Technologies (formerly International Rectifier) is a single-channel high-side gate driver IC designed for bootstrap-based N-channel MOSFET/IGBT control in automotive and industrial power stages. It operates with floating channel up to +600 V offset, supports 10–20 V gate drive supply, delivers 290 mA source / 600 mA sink peak output current, and features in-phase logic-to-HO response - used in BLDC motor inverters and direct fuel injection systems.
For engineers reviewing the AUIRS2117S datasheet, AUIRS2117S pinout, AUIRS2117S application, or AUIRS2117S equivalent, key selection criteria include its 600 V VS tolerance, dV/dt immunity, dual UVLO (VBS/VCC), CMOS Schmitt-trigger input with pull-down, and SOIC-8 automotive qualification per AEC-Q100.
Technical Context
The AUIRS2117S integrates a high-voltage level shifter and latch-immune CMOS logic to enable robust high-side switching in half-bridge topologies. Its floating channel references VS (not ground), allowing operation with VB up to 625 V and VS offset up to 600 V while maintaining logic integrity across -5 V to +600 V transient ranges.
It implements independent undervoltage lockout on both VBS and VCC rails (thresholds 7.2–9.6 V), features 140 ns typical propagation delay at VS = 600 V, and uses internal pulse filtering to suppress false triggering from noise or fast dV/dt transients up to 50 V/ns.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Topology | Single high-side gate driver - drives external N-channel MOSFET/IGBT in high-side configuration only |
| VOFFSET (VS) | 600 V max - enables use in 400 V DC bus systems with margin for transients |
| IO+/IO− | 290 mA / 600 mA - sufficient to charge/discharge 1000 pF gate capacitance in <150 ns |
| tON/tOFF | 140 ns / 140 ns typical - ensures matched switching timing critical for BLDC commutation |
| VCC Range | 10 V – 20 V - compatible with standard 12 V/15 V logic supplies and tolerant of rail variation |
| UVLO Thresholds | VBS: 7.2–9.6 V, VCC: 7.2–9.6 V - prevents partial turn-on during bootstrap capacitor discharge |
| ESD Rating | HBM Class H1B (±1000 V), CDM Class C4 (±1000 V) - meets automotive ESD robustness requirements |
Pinout & Package
Package: 8-Lead SOIC (SOIC-8N), RoHS-compliant, MSL3, automotive-qualified per AEC-Q100.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1 VCC | Logic and low-side supply input | Provides power to internal logic and level-shifter; referenced to COM |
| 2 IN | CMOS Schmitt-trigger input | In-phase logic control signal (AUIRS2117); pull-down ensures default-low state |
| 3 COM | Logic ground reference | Common return for VCC, IN, and internal logic; isolated from VS/HO domain |
| 4 NC | No connection | Internally unconnected; must remain unpopulated or floating |
| 5 NC | No connection | Internally unconnected; must remain unpopulated or floating |
| 6 VS | Floating supply return | Reference node for high-side output HO; tracks switching node voltage up to 600 V |
| 7 HO | High-side gate drive output | Drives gate of external N-MOSFET/IGBT; swings from VS to VB (up to 600 V above COM) |
| 8 VB | Floating supply input | Connects to bootstrap capacitor top; supplies gate drive energy for HO stage |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Floating channel architecture | Enables high-side gate driving without optocouplers or isolated supplies in bootstrap configurations |
| dV/dt immune level shifting | Withstands 50 V/ns transients on VS node - prevents false turn-on during hard-switching events |
| Dual independent UVLO | Separate monitoring of VBS and VCC ensures gate drive remains disabled if either supply drops below safe threshold |
| Automotive qualification | AEC-Q100 Grade 0 (–40°C to +125°C ambient), MSL3, and full ESD/latch-up compliance |
| CMOS Schmitt-trigger input | Hysteresis reduces sensitivity to noise; pull-down guarantees known state during power-up or open input |
Applications
| BLDC Motor Drive | Direct Fuel Injection |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar high-side gate driver applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| IRS2117PbF | Industrial-grade (non-automotive), identical electrical specs, same SOIC-8 pinout | Lacks AEC-Q100 qualification, lower ESD ratings (HBM ±500 V), not rated for automotive temperature range | Select when cost-sensitive industrial designs do not require automotive reliability or extended temperature operation |
| UCC27712DR | TI part with 600 V capability, 4 A peak output, but requires external level shifter; no integrated UVLO on floating supply | Higher drive strength but increased BOM count and layout complexity; no native bootstrap support | Choose when >600 mA sink current is required and system-level UVLO can be implemented externally |
Compared with IRS2117PbF and UCC27712DR, the AUIRS2117S uniquely combines automotive qualification, integrated dual UVLO, and bootstrap-ready architecture in a single SOIC-8 package - reducing design risk in safety-critical motor and powertrain systems.

FAQ
What is the maximum allowable dV/dt on the VS pin?
The AUIRS2117S is specified to tolerate up to 50 V/ns on the VS pin under recommended operating conditions. This dV/dt immunity is achieved via proprietary level-shifter design and internal pulse filtering, preventing false triggering during fast switching transitions in high-power inverters and SMPS applications.
Can AUIRS2117S drive SiC MOSFETs?
Yes - the AUIRS2117S supports gate drive for 650 V-class SiC MOSFETs when used within its 600 V VS rating and 10–20 V VCC range. Its 290 mA source / 600 mA sink capability and 140 ns propagation delay meet typical SiC gate drive requirements, though external gate resistors may be needed to limit di/dt.
Is pin 4 (NC) electrically isolated inside the IC?
Yes - pins 4 and 5 are confirmed as no-connect terminals in the die layout and bonding structure. They are not bonded to any internal circuitry and must remain unconnected on the PCB; routing traces or vias to these pins may compromise creepage/clearance or induce parasitic coupling.
How does the dual UVLO function during bootstrap capacitor charging?
The AUIRS2117S monitors VBS and VCC independently. During startup, if VBS falls below 7.2 V (negative-going threshold), HO is forced low regardless of IN state - preventing partial turn-on of the high-side switch before the bootstrap capacitor reaches minimum operational voltage.
