Product details
Overview
IR21362PBF from Infineon Technologies is a high-voltage, high-speed 3-phase bridge driver IC with three independent half-bridge gate drivers for N-channel MOSFETs or IGBTs. It operates up to +600V VS offset, supports 11.5–20V VCC supply, features in-phase high-side output logic (vs. out-of-phase in IR2136), 400ns/380ns typical turn-on/turn-off propagation delay, and integrated over-current shutdown with externally programmable fault-clear delay via RCIN.
For engineers reviewing the IR21362PBF datasheet, IR21362PBF pinout, IR21362PBF application, or IR21362PBF equivalent, key selection criteria include its 11.5V UVLO threshold, 3.3V logic compatibility, matched propagation delays across all six channels, cross-conduction prevention logic, and bootstrap-compatible floating channel architecture for high-side drive in motor inverters and UPS systems.
Technical Context
The IR21362PBF integrates three independent HVIC-based floating channel drivers with level-shifted inputs and shoot-through prevention logic that enforces deadtime between HOx and LOx outputs per phase. Its input filter time (100–200ns) and 220–360ns programmable deadtime ensure robust noise immunity and safe switching transitions.
It implements undervoltage lockout on both VCC (10.4V+/9.4V−) and VBx (11.5–20V range), an open-drain FAULT signal indicating overcurrent or UV events, and a current-sense trip input (ITRIP) with 0.46V threshold and 70mV hysteresis-cleared automatically after RCIN-triggered delay (1.3–2.0ms).
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| VBS Range | 11.5–20V: Specifies minimum bootstrap supply voltage needed to sustain high-side gate drive under load; ensures reliable operation up to 600V bus voltage. |
| ton/toff | 400ns/380ns typ.: Enables use in high-frequency motor control (e.g., >20kHz PWM) with precise timing alignment across all six outputs. |
| VITRIP | 0.46V typ.: Low-threshold current sense comparator allows direct connection to small-value shunt resistors (e.g., 5–10mΩ) without amplification. |
| UVLO Thresholds | VCC: 10.4V+/9.4V−; prevents erratic operation during power-up/down and ensures gate drive integrity before full bias is established. |
| Logic Compatibility | 3.3V CMOS/LSTTL: Direct interface with modern microcontrollers and FPGAs without level-shifting circuitry. |
| dV/dt Immunity | 50 V/ns: Tolerates fast transient voltage spikes on VS pins during switching, critical for reliable high-side operation in noisy inverter environments. |
Pinout & Package
IR21362PBF is available in 28-lead PDIP and 28-lead SOIC packages. Both variants share identical pin assignment and thermal characteristics (RthJA = 83°C/W for PDIP, 78°C/W for SOIC).
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| VCC | Low-side and logic supply input | Provides fixed 11.5–20V bias for internal logic, level shifters, and low-side drivers; requires local decoupling. |
| VSS | Logic ground reference | Common return for all logic inputs (HIN/LIN/EN/ITRIP/RCIN); must be tied to system digital ground. |
| COM | Power ground reference | Return path for low-side outputs (LO1–LO3); connects to power ground plane near power devices. |
| HIN1–HIN3 | High-side input signals | CMOS/LSTTL-compatible inputs controlling HO1–HO3; in-phase with outputs (unique to IR21362). |
| LIN1–LIN3 | Low-side input signals | CMOS/LSTTL-compatible inputs controlling LO1–LO3; out-of-phase with outputs. |
| HO1–HO3 | High-side gate drive outputs | Floating outputs referenced to VS1–VS3; drive gates of high-side N-MOSFETs/IGBTs in bootstrap configuration. |
| LO1–LO3 | Low-side gate drive outputs | Ground-referenced outputs driving low-side switches; capable of 200mA sink/350mA source pulsed current. |
| VS1–VS3 | Floating high-side source references | Connect to source terminals of high-side switches; withstands −5V to +600V offset vs. COM. |
| VB1–VB3 | Floating high-side bootstrap supplies | Accepts bootstrap capacitor voltage (11.5–20V) to power high-side drivers; clamped internally to VCC + 0.3V. |
| FAULT | Open-drain fault indicator | Asserts low on overcurrent or UV event; requires external pull-up; returns to high-Z after RCIN-triggered auto-clear. |
| ITRIP | Overcurrent sense input | Monitors voltage across external shunt resistor; 0.46V threshold enables sub-milliohm sensing with minimal power loss. |
| RCIN | External fault-clear timing input | RC network (e.g., 2MΩ + 1nF) sets auto-clear delay (1.3–2.0ms); overrides latched fault state without reset pulse. |
| EN | Global enable/disable input | Active-high logic input that simultaneously disables all six outputs when pulled low; includes 0.8V hysteresis. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| In-phase high-side output logic | Unlike IR2136/IR21363, HIN-to-HO relationship is non-inverted-simplifies PWM generation in microcontroller firmware without software inversion. |
| Externally programmable fault clear | RCIN pin accepts passive RC network to set precise auto-clear delay (1.3–2.0ms), eliminating need for external reset controller or MCU intervention. |
| Matched propagation delay | ≤70ns max mismatch across all six channels ensures synchronized switching in 3-phase topologies, reducing torque ripple and EMI. |
| Cross-conduction prevention logic | Dedicated hardware deadtime insertion (220–360ns) prevents simultaneous conduction of high- and low-side FETs in same leg-critical for inverter reliability. |
| 3.3V logic interface | Direct compatibility with ARM Cortex-M, TI C2000, and Xilinx Zynq controllers eliminates level-shifter components and associated board space/cost. |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar 3-phase gate driver applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| IR2136PBF | Out-of-phase high-side outputs; lower VCC UVLO (8.9V+/8.2V−); 10–20V VCC range. | Requires inverted HIN signals in firmware; less tolerant of low-VCC brownouts in industrial environments. | Select when legacy design compatibility or cost sensitivity outweighs need for in-phase logic and higher UVLO margin. |
| IR21363PBF | Out-of-phase high-side outputs; higher VCC UVLO (11.2V+/11.0V−); 12–20V VCC range; same ITRIP threshold. | Better UVLO margin than IR21362 but lacks in-phase logic; tighter supply range may limit flexibility with aging DC-DC supplies. | Prefer when maximum UVLO hysteresis (0.2V) and 12V minimum supply are required, and firmware can accommodate inverted HIN. |
Compared with IR2136PBF and IR21363PBF, the IR21362PBF uniquely provides in-phase high-side logic-reducing firmware complexity-while offering intermediate UVLO thresholds (10.4V+/9.4V−) and wider VCC range (11.5–20V) than IR2136, balancing robustness and design flexibility.

FAQ
What is the purpose of the RCIN pin on the IR21362PBF?
The RCIN pin sets the automatic fault-clear delay using an external RC network (e.g., 2MΩ + 1nF). When an overcurrent or undervoltage fault occurs, FAULT goes low and remains asserted until RCIN voltage exceeds 8V, triggering recovery after 1.3–2.0ms-eliminating need for MCU reset pulses or external timers.
How does the IR21362PBF differ from the IR2136PBF in high-side logic behavior?
The IR21362PBF drives high-side outputs (HO1–HO3) in phase with corresponding HIN inputs, whereas the IR2136PBF drives them out of phase. This eliminates firmware-level signal inversion in microcontroller PWM generation, simplifying code and reducing timing errors in real-time motor control loops.
Can the IR21362PBF drive SiC MOSFETs directly?
Yes-the IR21362PBF supports 200mA peak source and 350mA peak sink current per output, sufficient for gate driving common 650V SiC MOSFETs (e.g., 40–80mΩ RDS(on)) at ≤50kHz. Its 50 V/ns dV/dt immunity and fast propagation matching also suit high-speed SiC switching topologies.
What is the minimum recommended bootstrap capacitor value for IR21362PBF in a 20kHz motor inverter?
For 20kHz operation with 50% duty cycle and 1A gate charge (Qg), a minimum 0.22µF ceramic capacitor is recommended per VBx node. Larger values (e.g., 0.47µF) improve voltage stability under high di/dt loads and extend hold-up time during extended low-duty cycles.
