Product details
Overview
IR2102STR from Infineon Technologies is a high-voltage, high-speed dual-channel gate driver IC for N-channel MOSFETs and IGBTs, featuring independent high-side (HO) and low-side (LO) outputs with out-of-phase logic inputs. It supports floating operation up to +600V offset, delivers ±130 mA / +270 mA peak output current, and operates with 10–20V gate supply voltage. It is used in half-bridge motor drives and SMPS inverters requiring robust bootstrap-based high-side switching.
For engineers reviewing the IR2102STR datasheet, IR2102STR pinout, IR2102STR application, or IR2102STR equivalent, key selection criteria include its 600V VOFFSET, matched 160 ns / 150 ns propagation delays, 50 ns delay matching between channels, 3.3V/5V/15V logic compatibility, and undervoltage lockout thresholds at 7.4–9.8 V on VCC.
Technical Context
The IR2102STR integrates a high-voltage level-shifting circuit for the high-side channel and a CMOS logic interface tolerant to −5 V to +600 V on VS. Its internal latch-immune HVIC architecture ensures reliable operation under fast dV/dt transients up to 50 V/ns.
Unlike the IR2101, the IR2102STR implements inverted logic: HIN and LIN inputs drive HO and LO outputs out of phase - enabling direct complementary control without external inversion. Propagation delays are tightly matched (≤50 ns) to minimize shoot-through risk in bridge topologies.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| VOFFSET max | 600 V - enables high-side switching in 400 V AC line-connected inverters and industrial motor drives |
| IO+ / IO− | 130 mA / 270 mA - sufficient to charge/discharge 1 nF gate capacitance in ≤100 ns for 600 V IGBTs |
| ton / toff (typ.) | 160 ns / 150 ns - supports >3 MHz PWM switching in resonant converters |
| Delay matching | 50 ns - reduces dead-time uncertainty in synchronous rectification and half-bridge ZVS designs |
| VCC UVLO threshold | 7.4–9.8 V - prevents erratic output behavior during brown-out conditions in 12 V supply systems |
| Logic compatibility | 3.3 V, 5 V, 15 V - interoperable with microcontrollers, FPGAs, and analog comparators without level shifters |
Pinout & Package
IR2102STR is housed in an 8-lead SOIC package with standard surface-mount footprint and creepage clearance suitable for 600 V isolation requirements.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| HIN | Inverting logic input for high-side output | Drives HO out-of-phase with signal; referenced to COM; compatible with 3.3 V CMOS |
| LIN | Inverting logic input for low-side output | Drives LO out-of-phase with signal; enables complementary half-bridge control without external inverters |
| HO | High-side gate drive output | Floating output referenced to VS; capable of sourcing 130 mA into gate capacitance |
| LO | Low-side gate drive output | Ground-referenced output; sinks 270 mA for fast IGBT turn-off |
| VB | High-side floating supply | Bootstrap supply node for high-side driver; must be decoupled to VS with ≥0.1 µF ceramic |
| VS | High-side floating return | Switching node connection; withstands −5 V to +600 V transients with dV/dt immunity |
| VCC | Logic and low-side supply | Fixed 10–20 V supply powering internal logic and LO stage; includes UVLO protection |
| COM | Low-side ground reference | Common return for LIN, LO, and VCC; must be low-inductance path to power ground |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Out-of-phase logic inputs | Eliminates need for external inverters in half-bridge configurations, reducing BOM count and layout area |
| 600 V dV/dt immune floating channel | Withstands 50 V/ns transients on VS, preventing false triggering in high-noise motor drive environments |
| Matched propagation delays | ≤50 ns skew between HO and LO edges minimizes required dead time, improving efficiency in high-frequency bridges |
| Integrated UVLO on VCC | Prevents partial turn-on of power devices during supply ramp-up or brown-out, avoiding thermal stress and shoot-through |
Applications
| Motor Drive Half-Bridge | Induction Cooktop Inverter |
|---|---|
Use Scenario: Driving N-channel MOSFETs in a 3-phase BLDC inverter for HVAC compressors operating from 300–400 V DC bus. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: High- and low-side gate driver providing synchronized, out-of-phase gate signals with matched timing to prevent cross-conduction.

IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Dual-channel gate driver delivering precise, jitter-free HO/LO edges to manage zero-voltage switching transitions. Use Value: 160 ns / 150 ns propagation delays and 100 ns rise/fall times ensure accurate timing control across temperature, maintaining ZVS over full load range. |
| Industrial SMPS | UPS Inverter Stage |
Use Scenario: Gate driving 600 V IGBTs in 3 kW telecom rectifier PFC + DC-DC stages with active clamp topology. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Isolated high-side driver enabling bootstrap-based high-side switching without optocouplers or isolated supplies.

IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Robust gate driver supporting fast SiC switching while suppressing noise-induced false turn-on via dV/dt immunity. Use Value: 50 V/ns dV/dt tolerance prevents spurious HO activation during rapid SiC drain voltage transitions, eliminating gate driver failure in field deployments. |
Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar high-side/low-side gate driver applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| IR2104STR | Includes built-in dead-time generator (600 ns); single-input control; no LIN/HIN separation | Suitable for simpler half-bridge control where fixed dead time is acceptable; not for independent channel timing | Select when system-level dead-time management is impractical and consistent 600 ns guard band is sufficient |
| IRS2004M | Higher 2 A peak output current; integrated bootstrap diode; 5 V logic only; no 3.3 V support | Better suited for high-current GaN/SiC drivers requiring >1 A gate drive; less flexible for mixed-voltage control systems | Choose for high-power audio amplifiers or fast-switching GaN inverters needing higher peak current and integrated bootstrap diode |
Compared with IR2102STR, IR2104STR simplifies control with integrated dead time but sacrifices independent channel timing flexibility, while IRS2004M offers higher drive strength and integration at the cost of logic voltage range and part-level timing control.

FAQ
What is the maximum allowable dV/dt on the VS pin?
The IR2102STR is rated for 50 V/ns dV/dt on the VS pin under all operating conditions. This specification is verified per test condition in the datasheet and ensures immunity to false triggering during fast switching transitions in 600 V systems. Exceeding this rate may cause unintended high-side turn-on due to capacitive coupling into the level shifter.
Can IR2102STR drive SiC MOSFETs directly?
Yes - the IR2102STR can drive discrete SiC MOSFETs with gate charges ≤35 nC using 15 V VCC and appropriate gate resistors. Its 270 mA sink current and 100 ns rise/fall times meet typical SiC switching requirements, though layout optimization (short gate loops, Kelvin source connections) remains essential for noise immunity.
Is a bootstrap diode required externally?
Yes - an external ultrafast recovery diode (e.g., 1N4148WS or BAS16) must be placed between VCC and VB to charge the bootstrap capacitor during low-side conduction. The IR2102STR does not integrate this diode, unlike some later-generation drivers such as IRS2004M.
How does the out-of-phase logic differ from IR2101?
The IR2102STR inverts both HIN→HO and LIN→LO paths, so a logic HIGH on HIN produces LOW on HO, and vice versa. In contrast, IR2101 passes inputs directly. This allows direct connection to complementary PWM outputs from MCUs or dedicated gate driver controllers without external inverters.
