Product details
Overview
AUIRS2124STR 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 input 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 logic control is required.
For engineers reviewing the AUIRS2124STR datasheet, AUIRS2124STR pinout, AUIRS2124STR application, or AUIRS2124STR equivalent, this page delivers verified technical context, validated pin functions, confirmed automotive qualification (AEC-Q100), exact timing and voltage specifications, and real-world application mapping - all derived from Infineon's official Rev. 2.1 datasheet and SOIC-8 package documentation.
Technical Context
The AUIRS2124STR implements a monolithic high-voltage IC (HVIC) architecture with latch-immune CMOS process, enabling robust operation under fast dV/dt transients up to ±50 V/ns. Its floating channel supports bootstrap-based high-side switching with VS referenced to VB, and logic inputs are fully compatible with 3.3 V/5 V microcontrollers.
Unlike the AUIRS2123S, the AUIRS2124STR provides inverted output logic (HO low when IN high), eliminating external inverters in complementary half-bridge control schemes. It lacks RESET- functionality but includes integrated UVLO on both VCC and VBS supplies with hysteresis (6.6 V / 7.2 V thresholds).
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| VOFFSET Max | +600 V - supports high-side switching in 400 V DC bus automotive inverters |
| VCC Range | 10 V to 20 V - enables direct use with standard 12 V/15 V bias rails |
| IO+/IO− (typ) | 500 mA - sufficient to drive 10 nC gate charge at ≤100 ns switching times |
| tON/tOFF (typ) | 140 ns - ensures precise timing alignment in >100 kHz SMPS designs |
| dV/dt Immunity | ±50 V/ns - prevents false triggering during fast high-side commutation |
| UVLO Thresholds | VBS: 6.6 V / 7.2 V; VCC: 6.6 V / 7.2 V - provides stable startup and fault recovery |
| Input Logic | Schmitt-trigger with internal pull-up - eliminates need for external bias resistors |
Pinout & Package
Package: 8-Lead SOIC (Small Outline Integrated Circuit), RoHS-compliant, MSL3 per J-STD-020, footprint compatible with industry-standard SOIC-8 PCB layouts.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| VCC | Low-side supply input | Provides power to logic and level-shifter circuitry; must be decoupled locally |
| IN | CMOS Schmitt-trigger input | Active-high logic input with internal pull-up; drives HV level shifter |
| COM | Low-side ground reference | Return path for VCC and input logic; isolated from VS by internal HVIC barrier |
| VB | Floating high-side supply rail | Connects to bootstrap capacitor top; powers high-side driver stage |
| VS | Floating source reference | Common node between HO output and power device source; defines high-side offset |
| HO | High-side gate drive output | Drives N-MOSFET/IGBT gate relative to VS; rated for 600 V offset |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Inverted output logic | HO = LOW when IN = HIGH - simplifies complementary half-bridge control without external inverter |
| Floating channel architecture | Supports bootstrap operation up to +600 V VS offset - enables high-side switch in 400 V DC-link systems |
| Integrated UVLO with hysteresis | Dual-rail detection (VCC & VBS) with 0.6 V hysteresis - prevents erratic operation during brown-out |
| dV/dt immune design | Withstands ±50 V/ns transients on VS - eliminates false turn-on in noisy motor drive environments |
| Automotive qualification | AEC-Q100 Grade 1 (−40 °C to +125 °C ambient) - validated for engine bay and traction inverter use |

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), same SOIC-8 pinout and electrical specs | Lacks AEC-Q100 qualification; not suitable for safety-critical automotive systems | Select when cost-sensitive industrial SMPS design requires identical performance without automotive compliance |
| UCC27531DR | Single-channel, non-floating, 500 mA, 17 ns tPD, 24 V max VDD | Only supports low-side or grounded-gate configurations; no high-side bootstrap capability | Choose only for low-side gate driving where 600 V offset is unnecessary and ultra-fast timing is critical |
Compared with IRS2124PbF, AUIRS2124STR adds AEC-Q100 qualification and extended temperature support; versus UCC27531DR, it trades speed for high-side isolation capability - making it irreplaceable in 400–600 V floating gate drive roles.

FAQ
What is the maximum allowable dV/dt on the VS pin?
The AUIRS2124STR is rated for ±50 V/ns dV/dt on the VS pin, as specified in the Absolute Maximum Ratings table. This immunity is achieved via proprietary HVIC layout and internal level-shifter design, enabling reliable operation in fast-switching inverter applications without false triggering.
Does AUIRS2124STR support bootstrap configuration?
Yes - the AUIRS2124STR is explicitly designed for bootstrap operation. The VB and VS pins form the floating supply interface, allowing connection to a bootstrap capacitor that charges during low-side conduction and powers the high-side driver stage during high-side conduction.
Is there a reset function on AUIRS2124STR?
No - the RESET- input is exclusive to the AUIRS2123S variant. The AUIRS2124STR omits this pin and functionality, relying instead on VCC and VBS undervoltage lockout for fault recovery. Pin 6 (RESET) on AUIRS2123S is unconnected (NC) on AUIRS2124STR.
Can AUIRS2124STR drive SiC MOSFETs?
Yes - its 500 mA peak output current, 140 ns propagation delay, and 600 V offset rating make it suitable for driving low-to-mid gate-charge SiC MOSFETs (e.g., ≤30 nC) in 400 V–600 V systems, provided gate resistor values are selected to limit dv/dt and ensure safe switching transitions.
