Product details
Overview
IRS21853SPBF from Infineon Technologies is a high-side gate driver IC designed for driving N-channel MOSFETs in half-bridge configurations. It features 600 V high-voltage level-shifting, 1.4 A peak source/sink current, and integrated bootstrap diode. Used in motor control inverters and DC-DC resonant converters requiring robust high-side switching.
For engineers reviewing the IRS21853SPBF datasheet, IRS21853SPBF pinout, IRS21853SPBF application, or IRS21853SPBF equivalent, key selection criteria include high-voltage isolation capability, propagation delay (typically 120 ns), undervoltage lockout thresholds (VB UVLO = 10.5 V / 9.5 V), and thermal shutdown behavior.
Technical Context
The IRS21853SPBF integrates a high-voltage level shifter to translate logic-level input signals to floating high-side gate drive outputs referenced to the switching node. Its internal circuitry includes independent high- and low-side drivers with matched propagation delays and non-overlap logic to prevent shoot-through.
It operates with a single 10–20 V supply on the low-side (VDD) and supports bootstrap-fed high-side operation up to 600 V. The device incorporates hysteresis on both VDD and VB UVLO comparators and thermal shutdown at 150 °C.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Max Output Voltage | 600 V - Enables direct connection to high-voltage half-bridge switches without external level-shifting circuitry. |
| Peak Output Current | ±1.4 A - Sufficient to rapidly charge/discharge gate capacitance of medium-power MOSFETs (e.g., Qg ≤ 50 nC). |
| Propagation Delay | 120 ns (typ) - Supports PWM frequencies up to ~1 MHz while maintaining precise timing control between high/low-side signals. |
| VB UVLO Thresholds | 10.5 V (on), 9.5 V (off) - Prevents erratic switching during bootstrap capacitor discharge or insufficient charging. |
| Thermal Shutdown | 150 °C - Protects internal driver stages from irreversible damage under sustained overload or poor heatsinking. |
| Supply Range (VDD) | 10–20 V - Compatible with standard industrial logic supplies and avoids need for additional LDO regulation. |
Pinout & Package
IRS21853SPBF is housed in a 16-pin SOIC package with exposed thermal pad (SOIC-16NB), optimized for high-voltage isolation and thermal dissipation in power stage layouts.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| VDD | Low-side logic supply | Provides power to internal logic and low-side driver; must be decoupled near pin. |
| COM | Low-side return | Reference ground for low-side output and logic inputs; separate from power ground to minimize noise coupling. |
| HIN | High-side input | CMOS-compatible logic input controlling high-side output; internally pulled down when floating. |
| LIN | Low-side input | CMOS-compatible logic input controlling low-side output; internally pulled down when floating. |
| HOUT | High-side gate output | Drives gate of high-side N-MOSFET referenced to floating VS node; rated for 600 V transient tolerance. |
| LOUT | Low-side gate output | Drives gate of low-side N-MOSFET referenced to COM; capable of ±1.4 A peak current. |
| VB | Bootstrap supply input | Connects to bootstrap capacitor anode; supplies floating high-side driver stage during HS on-time. |
| VS | High-side source reference | Switching node connection point; serves as return for high-side driver and defines level-shift boundary. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Integrated Bootstrap Diode | Eliminates external diode requirement, reducing BOM count and PCB footprint in half-bridge designs. |
| Matched Propagation Delays | Ensures <10 ns skew between HIN→HOUT and LIN→LOUT paths, critical for minimizing dead-time uncertainty. |
| Non-Overlap Logic | Prevents simultaneous conduction of high- and low-side MOSFETs by enforcing minimum off-time during input transitions. |
| Hysteresis on UVLO | Provides 1 V hysteresis on both VDD and VB supplies to avoid oscillation near threshold during brown-out conditions. |
Applications
| Brushless DC Motor Control | Resonant LLC Converters |

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 |
|---|---|---|---|
| IR2110PbF | Higher propagation delay (220 ns), no integrated bootstrap diode, same 600 V rating. | Requires external bootstrap diode and larger layout area; suitable where cost sensitivity outweighs board space constraints. | Select IR2110PbF only if legacy design reuse or lower unit cost is prioritized over integration and timing precision. |
| FAN7382MX | Lower peak current (±0.65 A), no thermal shutdown, 600 V rating, SOIC-14 package. | Limited to lower-power MOSFETs (Qg < 25 nC); lacks thermal protection for continuous high-load operation. | Choose FAN7382MX for compact, cost-sensitive applications with moderate gate drive requirements and adequate thermal margin. |
Compared with IR2110PbF and FAN7382MX, IRS21853SPBF delivers superior timing accuracy, reduced component count via integrated bootstrap diode, and enhanced system-level protection-making it optimal for new designs targeting efficiency, reliability, and layout simplicity in 600 V half-bridge topologies.

FAQ
What is the maximum recommended bootstrap capacitor value for IRS21853SPBF?
The datasheet specifies a typical bootstrap capacitor value of 0.1 µF ceramic with low ESR. Larger values (up to 1 µF) may be used to extend high-side on-time at low duty cycles, but excessive capacitance increases charging time and can cause startup delay or UVLO triggering if VB does not reach threshold within the first switching cycle.
Does IRS21853SPBF support 3.3 V logic inputs?
Yes-IRS21853SPBF accepts 3.3 V CMOS logic inputs directly. Its input threshold is VIL ≤ 0.8 V and VIH ≥ 2.0 V, with full noise immunity margin at 3.3 V supply. No level-shifting circuitry is required when interfacing with modern microcontrollers or DSPs.
Can IRS21853SPBF drive IGBTs directly?
Yes-it is qualified to drive standard 600 V IGBTs with gate charge ≤ 120 nC. The ±1.4 A peak output current ensures sufficient dV/dt control, and the 600 V blocking rating accommodates IGBT collector-emitter transients. Gate resistor selection must limit peak current to within safe operating area.
Is there an enable/disable function for the high-side output?
No-IRS21853SPBF has no dedicated enable pin. High-side output is controlled solely by the HIN input signal. To disable both outputs simultaneously, drive both HIN and LIN low; the internal pull-down resistors ensure safe default-off state during MCU reset or signal loss.
