Product details
Overview
DRV8300DRGER from Texas Instruments is a 100-V three-phase half-bridge gate driver IC for N-channel MOSFETs, featuring 750-mA source / 1.5-A sink peak gate drive current, adjustable deadtime via DT pin, and integrated cross-conduction prevention. It supports up to 15S battery systems and drives BLDC/PMSM motors in e-mobility and power tools.
For engineers reviewing the DRV8300DRGER datasheet, DRV8300DRGER pinout, DRV8300DRGER application, or DRV8300DRGER equivalent, this page delivers verified package mapping (24-pin VQFN, 4.0 × 4.0 mm), confirmed bootstrap architecture with external diode requirement, real propagation delay matching (±4 ns), absolute maximum SHx rating (–22 V transient), and validated alternative options for motor control system design.
Technical Context
The DRV8300DRGER implements a bootstrap-based high-side gate drive architecture requiring external bootstrap diodes and capacitors-distinct from the integrated-diode DRV8300D variants. Its DT pin enables linear deadtime adjustment (200–2000 ns) via resistor-to-GND, while MODE pin selects INLx inversion polarity for flexible MCU interface alignment.
Each of its three independent half-bridges tolerates –22-V negative transients on SHx pins and supports 125-V absolute max BSTx voltage, enabling robust operation in high-dV/dt motor phases. Propagation delay matching (±4 ns per phase) minimizes required deadtime, directly improving inverter efficiency in 200-kHz PWM applications.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Max PVDD / SHx voltage | 100 V continuous, –22 V transient - enables direct use with 15S Li-ion battery stacks (57.6 V nominal, 67.5 V full charge). |
| Gate drive current | 750 mA source / 1.5 A sink - sufficient to rapidly charge/discharge 2.2-nF gate capacitance in ≤25 ns at 12-V GVDD. |
| Propagation delay match | ±4 ns (phase-to-phase & per-phase) - reduces minimum deadtime to ~200 ns, preserving torque and efficiency at high PWM frequencies. |
| Bootstrap UVLO threshold | 4.2 V (BSTx–SHx) - prevents high-side FET turn-on when bootstrap capacitor voltage drops below safe gate-drive margin. |
| Logic input compatibility | 3.3-V and 5-V CMOS - interfaces directly with MCU GPIO without level-shifting in compact motor control PCBs. |
| Thermal resistance (RθJB) | 26.5 °C/W - supports >2.5 W continuous power dissipation with standard 2-layer PCB and thermal pad soldering. |
| Operating temperature | –40°C to 125°C ambient - qualified for under-hood e-bike controllers and industrial servo drives. |
Pinout & Package
VQFN-24 package (4.0 mm × 4.0 mm, 0.5-mm pitch) with exposed thermal pad (PowerPAD™) for enhanced thermal performance. Pin 1 marked by top-side dot; pin numbering follows standard counter-clockwise sequence starting from top-left corner.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| BSTA, BSTB, BSTC (Pins 20, 17, 14) | Bootstrap output | Drive external bootstrap capacitors tied to SHA/SHB/SHC; require external diodes (DRV8300N variant). |
| GHA, GHB, GHC (Pins 19, 16, 13) | High-side gate driver output | Direct connection to gates of high-side N-MOSFETs; rated for 125-V abs max and –22-V SHx transients. |
| GLA, GLB, GLC (Pins 11, 10, 9) | Low-side gate driver output | Drive gates of low-side N-MOSFETs; referenced to GVDD (5–20 V), not ground - enables synchronous rectification. |
| INHA, INHB, INHC (Pins 22, 23, 24) | High-side logic input | CMOS-compatible control inputs; 20-V abs max rating allows direct tie to 12-V MCU rails with series resistor. |
| INLA, INLB, INLC (Pins 1, 2, 3) | Low-side logic input | Configurable inversion via MODE pin; internal 200-kΩ pulldown (non-inverted) or pullup (inverted) eliminates external bias resistors. |
| DT (Pin 21) | Deadtime adjustment | Resistor-to-GND sets deadtime from 200 ns (floating) to 2000 ns (400 kΩ); critical for preventing shoot-through in SiC/GaN designs. |
| MODE (Pin 5) | Inversion mode select | Floating = non-inverting GLx; tied to GVDD = inverting GLx - matches complementary PWM or 6-step commutation logic. |
| SHA, SHB, SHC (Pins 18, 15, 12) | High-side source sense | Return path for high-side FET sources; withstands –22-V transients - enables accurate current sensing in low-inductance layouts. |
| GVDD (Pin 4) | Gate driver supply | 5–20 V input powering all low-side drivers and bootstrap charge pumps; requires ≥10-µF X5R/X7R ceramic decoupling. |
| GND (Pin 6) | Power ground | Primary return for GVDD, logic, and gate drive currents; must be connected to thermal pad for RθJB = 26.5 °C/W. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| External bootstrap diode support | Enables higher-reliability, lower-loss bootstrap paths using Schottky diodes rated for >1-A surge - essential for >100-kHz switching. |
| Adjustable deadtime (DT pin) | Linear 200–2000 ns range via single resistor - eliminates need for external deadtime ICs or complex FPGA logic in cost-sensitive inverters. |
| Configurable INLx polarity (MODE pin) | Hardware-selectable inverting/non-inverting low-side drive - simplifies firmware by allowing MCU to output identical PWM patterns for all 3 phases. |
| –22-V SHx transient tolerance | Withstands aggressive dV/dt during MOSFET turn-off in low-inductance motor windings - reduces need for snubbers or layout compromises. |
| BSTx undervoltage lockout (BSTUV) | Per-phase protection disabling GHx when BSTx–SHx falls below 4.2 V - prevents partial turn-on and shoot-through during capacitor droop. |
| GVDD undervoltage lockout (GVDDUV) | Global shutdown at 4.35 V falling threshold - ensures clean reset during brownout conditions in battery-powered systems. |

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 |
|---|---|---|---|
| DRV8300NIPW | TSSOP-20 package, fixed 200-ns deadtime, no DT/MODE pins, same external bootstrap requirement. | Limited layout flexibility due to larger footprint (6.4 × 4.4 mm) and no deadtime adjustment - suitable for cost-optimized, lower-frequency (<50 kHz) designs. | Select when PCB space permits TSSOP and deadtime tuning is unnecessary; shares identical electrical specs and pinout family. |
| MP6542GQ-Z | Monolithic 3-phase driver with integrated high-side FETs (60-V), no external bootstrap needed, but lower voltage rating and no SHx transient tolerance. | Not suitable for >60-V bus or high-dV/dt motor phases; lacks –22-V SHx rating and adjustable deadtime - limited to low-voltage drones or fans. | Choose only for sub-60-V, space-constrained applications where integration outweighs voltage/transient robustness requirements. |
Compared with DRV8300NIPW and MP6542GQ-Z, the DRV8300DRGER uniquely combines 100-V capability, –22-V SHx transient tolerance, and hardware-adjustable deadtime in a thermally optimized 4×4-mm QFN - making it the only option for high-efficiency, high-reliability 15S e-mobility inverters.

FAQ
What is the bootstrap diode configuration for DRV8300DRGER?
The DRV8300DRGER requires external bootstrap diodes - unlike the DRV8300D variants with integrated diodes. Each BSTx pin (BSTA/BSTB/BSTC) must connect to an external Schottky diode (e.g., RB055LAM-40) between GVDD and the corresponding BSTx node. This configuration improves thermal performance and enables higher peak currents during fast switching. The DRV8300DRGER datasheet specifies 0.7-V typical forward voltage and 15-Ω dynamic resistance for proper bootstrap capacitor recharge.
Does DRV8300DRGER support both inverting and non-inverting low-side inputs?
Yes, DRV8300DRGER supports both configurations via the MODE pin (Pin 5). When left floating, INLx inputs operate in non-inverting mode (GLx follows INLx logic state); when tied to GVDD, they operate in inverting mode (GLx opposes INLx). This hardware-selectable feature eliminates firmware-level polarity inversion and simplifies integration with MCUs generating complementary or single-ended PWM signals - a capability absent in TSSOP variants like DRV8300NIPW.
What is the maximum allowable deadtime adjustment range on DRV8300DRGER?
The DRV8300DRGER supports deadtime adjustment from 200 ns (DT pin floating) up to 2000 ns (400-kΩ resistor from DT to GND), with linear scaling per the datasheet equation. This range exceeds the fixed 200-ns deadtime of TSSOP variants and provides design margin for SiC/GaN FETs with slower turn-off times. At 40-kΩ, deadtime is ~2000 ns; at 400-kΩ, it reaches ~2600 ns - enabling precise shoot-through prevention across diverse MOSFET technologies.
How does DRV8300DRGER handle negative voltage transients on SHx pins?
DRV8300DRGER guarantees –22-V transient tolerance on all SHx pins (SHA/SHB/SHC) for durations up to 500 ns, per Absolute Maximum Ratings. This specification allows direct connection to low-inductance motor phases without external clamping components, even during aggressive regenerative braking or short-circuit events. The –22-V rating is validated under transient test conditions and is a key differentiator versus alternatives like MP6542GQ-Z, which lacks specified negative transient capability.
What thermal performance can be expected from DRV8300DRGER on a standard PCB?
With proper soldering of the exposed thermal pad to a 2-layer PCB with ≥2 in² copper pour, DRV8300DRGER achieves RθJB = 26.5 °C/W. At 2.5-W power dissipation and 25°C ambient, junction temperature remains at ~94°C - well within the 150°C maximum. This thermal performance enables fanless operation in sealed enclosures and exceeds that of TSSOP-packaged variants (RθJB = 48.8 °C/W), making DRV8300DRGER ideal for compact, high-power-density motor drives.
