Product details
Overview
IRS2301STRPBF from Infineon Technologies (formerly International Rectifier) is a high-voltage, high-speed dual-channel gate driver IC for N-channel MOSFETs and IGBTs in half-bridge configurations. It features independent high-side (floating up to +600V) and low-side output channels, 120mA/250mA peak source/sink current, 220ns/200ns typical propagation delays, and 3.3V/5V/15V logic-compatible inputs. It is used in appliance motor drives and micro-inverter power stages.
For engineers reviewing the IRS2301STRPBF datasheet, IRS2301STRPBF pinout, IRS2301STRPBF application, or IRS2301STRPBF equivalent, key selection criteria include bootstrap-capable high-side operation up to 600V offset, matched propagation delay (<50ns), undervoltage lockout on both VCC and VBS rails, and SOIC-8 package compatibility with industrial motor control PCB layouts.
Technical Context
The IRS2301STRPBF integrates a high-voltage level-shifting circuit for the floating high-side channel and a grounded low-side driver in a single monolithic HVIC process. Its logic inputs accept CMOS/LSTTL signals down to 3.3V, and outputs drive gate capacitances with 130ns rise and 50ns fall times under 1000pF load.
It implements independent undervoltage lockout (UVLO) thresholds of 3.3V–4.1V (positive-going) and 3.0V–3.8V (negative-going) for both VCC and VBS supplies, with 0.1–0.3V hysteresis. The device is rated for continuous operation at VS = –5V to +600V and junction temperatures up to 150°C.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| VOFFSET (Max) | 600V - Enables high-side switching in half-bridge topologies with bus voltages up to 600V DC. |
| IO+/IO− (Min) | 120mA / 250mA - Sufficient gate charge delivery for fast turn-on/turn-off of 1–3A IGBTs or <500V MOSFETs. |
| tON/tOFF (Typ) | 220ns / 200ns - Supports PWM frequencies up to ~1.5MHz in hard-switched inverters with tight timing control. |
| Delay Matching | ≤50ns - Ensures synchronous switching of high- and low-side devices to minimize shoot-through risk. |
| VIN Logic Compatibility | 3.3V, 5V, 15V - Interfacing directly with MCU GPIOs, FPGA I/O banks, or isolated digital controllers without level shifters. |
| UVLO Thresholds | VCC/VBS UV+ = 3.3–4.1V; UV− = 3.0–3.8V - Prevents partial gate drive during supply brownout, avoiding device latch-up or thermal runaway. |
Pinout & Package
IRS2301STRPBF is housed in an 8-lead SOIC package with standard JEDEC MS-012AC footprint (body size 3.9mm × 4.9mm, lead pitch 1.27mm). The package is RoHS-compliant and rated MSL2 per J-STD-020.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| HIN | High-side logic input | CMOS/LSTTL-compatible signal controlling HO output; referenced to COM. |
| LIN | Low-side logic input | CMOS/LSTTL-compatible signal controlling LO output; referenced to COM. |
| VB | High-side floating supply | Bootstrap capacitor connection point; supplies gate drive for HO channel. |
| VS | High-side floating return | Reference node for VB and HO; tracks switching node voltage up to +600V. |
| HO | High-side gate output | Drives gate of high-side N-MOSFET/IGBT; swings from VS to VB. |
| LO | Low-side gate output | Drives gate of low-side N-MOSFET/IGBT; swings from COM to VCC. |
| VCC | Low-side and logic supply | Fixed 5–20V rail powering internal logic, LO driver, and level shifter. |
| COM | Ground reference | Common return for LIN, HIN, LO, and VCC; must be connected to system power ground. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Floating channel with dV/dt immunity | Withstands 50V/ns transient on VS node without false triggering - critical for noisy inverter bridge nodes. |
| Matched propagation delay | ≤50ns difference between HO and LO turn-on/turn-off delays - enables precise dead-time control in half-bridge drivers. |
| Independent dual UVLO | Dual undervoltage lockout on VCC and VBS rails prevents unsafe gate drive during supply sag or bootstrap capacitor discharge. |
| Lower di/dt gate driver | Controlled slew rate reduces EMI generation during switching - improves EMC compliance in compact motor drive enclosures. |
| Lead-free & RoHS compliant | Meets EU RoHS Directive 2011/65/EU and JEDEC J-STD-020 MSL2 reflow profile - suitable for automated SMT assembly. |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar high- and low-side gate driver applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| IR2101STRPBF | Lower peak output current (200mA/200mA), no VBS UVLO hysteresis, wider tON/tOFF mismatch (±100ns). | Limited to lower-power inverters (<500W); less robust under bootstrap supply instability. | Choose when cost sensitivity outweighs need for tight delay matching and dual-rail UVLO. |
| IRS2004PBF | Higher VOFFSET (625V), integrated bootstrap diode, but only 100mA/100mA output current and no 3.3V logic support. | Better for ultra-high-voltage (>600V) solar string inverters; unsuitable for 3.3V MCU interfaces. | Prefer for 600–625V DC link designs where gate drive strength is secondary to voltage margin. |
Compared with IR2101STRPBF and IRS2004PBF, IRS2301STRPBF delivers superior timing precision, stronger low-side sink capability, and full 3.3V–15V logic compatibility-making it optimal for compact, high-efficiency motor drives requiring reliable bootstrap operation and noise immunity.

FAQ
What is the maximum allowable dV/dt on the VS pin?
The IRS2301STRPBF is specified to tolerate up to 50V/ns on the VS pin without false triggering or latch-up. This rating is validated per manufacturer test conditions and ensures reliable operation in high-di/dt inverter bridge environments where rapid voltage transients occur across the high-side switch.
Can IRS2301STRPBF drive IGBTs directly without external gate resistors?
Yes, IRS2301STRPBF can drive small-to-medium IGBTs (up to ~15A/600V) directly, but external gate resistors are recommended to control switching speed, suppress ringing, and limit peak gate current. The 250mA low-side sink current supports fast turn-off, but resistor selection remains critical for EMI and SOA compliance.
Is bootstrap capacitor sizing dependent on switching frequency?
Yes. Bootstrap capacitor value must be selected based on switching frequency, duty cycle, and gate charge requirements. For 20kHz operation with 50% duty cycle and 100nC total gate charge, a minimum 0.1µF X7R ceramic capacitor is recommended to maintain VBS above UVLO threshold across all operating conditions.
Does IRS2301STRPBF support 3.3V-only microcontrollers without level shifting?
Yes. The HIN and LIN inputs are fully compatible with 3.3V logic: VIH(min) = 2.5V and VIL(max) = 0.8V at VCC = 10–20V, ensuring reliable recognition of 3.3V logic high/low states without external level translation circuitry.
