Product details
Overview
AUIRS2124S from Infineon Technologies is an automotive-qualified high-side gate driver IC designed to control N-channel MOSFETs/IGBTs in floating high-voltage configurations up to +600 V. It features CMOS Schmitt-triggered inputs with internal pull-up, 10–20 V gate drive supply range, 500 mA peak output current, 140 ns typical propagation delay (tON/tOFF), and undervoltage lockout on both VCC and VBS rails. Used in automotive SMPS and inverters where phase-inverted input-to-output logic is required.
For engineers reviewing the AUIRS2124S datasheet, AUIRS2124S pinout, AUIRS2124S application, or AUIRS2124S equivalent, key selection criteria include its 600 V offset tolerance, bootstrap-compatible floating channel, inverting logic behavior, automotive AEC-Q100 qualification, and SOIC8 package compatibility with high dV/dt noise immunity.
Technical Context
The AUIRS2124S implements a monolithic high-voltage IC (HVIC) architecture with latch-immune CMOS process, enabling robust operation under fast transient conditions. Its floating channel uses level-shifting circuitry referenced to VS, supporting gate drive for high-side switches with VB up to +625 V and VS offset up to +600 V.
Input logic is inverting: a high IN signal produces low HO output, and vice versa. Unlike the AUIRS2123S, it omits RESET functionality and replaces the internal pull-down with a 120 kΩ pull-up resistor on IN, ensuring defined logic state at power-up without external biasing.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| VOFFSET Max | 600 V - supports high-side switching in 400 V DC bus automotive inverters and SMPS |
| IO+/IO− Peak | 500 mA - drives gate capacitance of medium-power MOSFETs (e.g., 10–50 nF) with low RC delay |
| tON/tOFF Typ | 140 ns - enables >1 MHz switching in resonant topologies with tight timing control |
| VCC Range | 10–20 V - compatible with standard 12 V/15 V automotive supply rails and LDO outputs |
| VBS UVLO Threshold | 6.6–9.0 V - prevents erratic gate drive during bootstrap capacitor discharge or startup |
| dV/dt Immunity | ±50 V/ns - suppresses false triggering in noisy motor drive or inverter environments |
| AEC-Q100 Grade | Qualified - meets automotive reliability requirements for under-hood temperature cycling and lifetime stress |
Pinout & Package
Package: 8-Lead SOIC (Small Outline Integrated Circuit), RoHS-compliant, MSL3 per J-STD-020.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| VCC | Low-side logic supply input | Provides power to internal logic and level shifter; must be decoupled locally |
| IN | Inverting digital input | CMOS Schmitt-triggered with internal 120 kΩ pull-up; accepts 3.3 V/5 V logic |
| COM | Logic ground reference | Common return for VCC and input circuitry; isolated from power ground |
| VB | Floating high-side supply input | Connects to bootstrap capacitor positive terminal; supplies HO stage |
| VS | Floating source reference | Return node for high-side output; tracks switching node voltage up to +600 V |
| HO | High-side gate driver output | Drives N-channel MOSFET/IGBT gate; referenced to VS, not COM |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Inverting input logic | Eliminates need for external inverter in half-bridge complementary drive schemes |
| Floating channel with 600 V offset | Enables direct high-side drive in buck, boost, and inverter topologies without optocouplers |
| Integrated VCC and VBS undervoltage lockout | Prevents partial turn-on and shoot-through during supply brown-out or bootstrap failure |
| 120 kΩ internal pull-up on IN | Ensures default high logic state at power-up, simplifying control interface design |
| dV/dt immune level-shifting | Maintains correct output state even during rapid VS transients (e.g., IGBT switching edges) |
Applications

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 |
|---|---|---|---|
| IRS2124PbF | Industrial-grade (non-automotive), identical pinout and electrical specs except AEC-Q100 qualification | Lacks automotive qualification testing; unsuitable for safety-critical vehicle systems | Select when cost-sensitive industrial SMPS or motor drives require same performance without automotive compliance |
| UCC27531DR | Single-channel low-side driver only; no floating channel or VS reference; max VDD = 24 V | Cannot replace high-side function; requires external level-shifting for high-side use | Choose only for low-side gate drive where isolation and high-voltage tolerance are unnecessary |
Compared with IRS2124PbF, AUIRS2124S adds AEC-Q100 qualification and extended temperature support; compared with UCC27531DR, it provides integrated high-side capability and 600 V offset tolerance-making it irreplaceable in true high-side automotive power stages.

FAQ
What is the logic relationship between IN and HO on the AUIRS2124S?
The AUIRS2124S features inverting logic: a logic-high signal at IN results in a logic-low output at HO, and a logic-low IN produces a logic-high HO. This eliminates external inverters in complementary half-bridge designs. The internal 120 kΩ pull-up ensures IN defaults to high at power-up, making HO default low-safe for most high-side switch configurations.
Can AUIRS2124S drive SiC MOSFETs or GaN HEMTs?
Yes-the AUIRS2124S delivers 500 mA peak gate current and 140 ns propagation delay, suitable for driving moderate gate charge SiC MOSFETs (Qg < 30 nC) and GaN HEMTs in hard-switched or resonant topologies. Its 600 V offset rating and ±50 V/ns dV/dt immunity ensure reliable operation with fast-switching wide-bandgap devices in 400–600 V DC-link applications.
Does AUIRS2124S include a built-in bootstrap diode?
No-the AUIRS2124S does not integrate a bootstrap diode. An external fast-recovery diode (e.g., 1N4148WS or BAS21) must be placed between VCC and VB to charge the bootstrap capacitor during low-side conduction. The IC expects a properly sized capacitor (typically 0.1–1 µF) on VB–VS to sustain gate drive during high-side on-time.
How does the AUIRS2124S handle negative VS transients?
The AUIRS2124S tolerates VS down to −25 V for 0.4 µs transients per datasheet, and its level-shifter is dV/dt immune up to ±50 V/ns. This allows safe operation during inductive kickback or shoot-through events in motor drives and inverters. The internal protection prevents false triggering or latch-up, but sustained VS < −5 V may violate recommended operating conditions and should be avoided via layout and snubbing.
