Product details
Overview
LM5134ASD/NOPB from Texas Instruments is a single-channel low-side gate driver IC with dual complementary outputs (OUT and PILOT), delivering 7.6-A peak sink / 4.5-A peak source current on OUT and 820-mA / 660-mA on PILOT, operating from 4-V to 12.6-V supply, and rated for –40°C to 125°C junction temperature. It enables high-speed switching of power MOSFETs in motor drivers and PFC converters by minimizing turnoff loop inductance via local pilot-FET control.
For engineers reviewing the LM5134ASD/NOPB datasheet, LM5134ASD/NOPB pinout, LM5134ASD/NOPB application, or LM5134ASD/NOPB equivalent, key selection criteria include verified peak drive current capability, complementary PILOT timing delay (tPD-ON = 4.2 ns, tPD-OFF = 6.4 ns at VDD = 10 V), input logic compatibility (TTL/CMOS, 14-V tolerant), UVLO threshold (3.25–4 V), and thermal performance in WSON-6 package (RθJA = 60°C/W).
Technical Context
The LM5134ASD/NOPB implements dual-output gate drive architecture: main OUT drives high-current power FETs, while complementary PILOT drives an external low-inductance turnoff FET placed adjacent to the main switch. Its internal break-before-make timing (2.5 ns at VDD = 10 V) prevents shoot-through between PILOT and OUT during transitions.
It features dual logic inputs (IN and INB) supporting both inverting and noninverting configurations, TTL-compatible thresholds (LM5134B variant), and integrated undervoltage lockout (UVLO) with 0.36-V hysteresis that clamps OUT below 1 V when VDD falls below threshold - ensuring safe default-off behavior under brownout conditions.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Peak Sink Current (OUT) | 7.6 A - sufficient to rapidly discharge gate capacitance of large Si MOSFETs or parallel arrays in hard-switching PFC stages. |
| Peak Source Current (OUT) | 4.5 A - enables fast turn-on of high-Qg power devices while maintaining control over dV/dt-induced EMI. |
| PILOT Output Delay (tPD-ON) | 4.2 ns (VDD = 10 V) - ensures precise sequencing where PILOT activates after main OUT turns off, eliminating shoot-through risk. |
| Supply Voltage Range | 4 V to 12.6 V - supports direct interface with 5-V or 12-V bias rails, including GaN FET gate requirements (≤6 V). |
| Input Voltage Tolerance | Up to 14 V - allows direct connection to PWM controllers without level-shifting, regardless of VDD level. |
| Junction Temperature Range | –40°C to +125°C - validated for industrial motor control and automotive under-hood auxiliary power modules. |
| UVLO Threshold | 3.25 V to 4.0 V with 0.36-V hysteresis - guarantees robust startup and fault recovery in noisy 12-V battery-fed systems. |
Pinout & Package
LM5134ASD/NOPB is packaged in a thermally enhanced 6-pin WSON (NGG) with exposed pad (3.00 mm × 3.00 mm), optimized for PCB heat spreading and low-inductance layout in high-frequency switching applications.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| VDD | Gate drive supply input | Must be locally decoupled to VSS with low-ESR/ESL capacitor; powers both output stages and logic core. |
| PILOT | Complementary gate drive output | Drives external turnoff FET; timing offset relative to OUT prevents shoot-through and reduces gate loop inductance. |
| OUT | Main low-side gate drive output | Directly drives power MOSFET gate; capable of 7.6-A sink/4.5-A source into 10 nF load. |
| VSS | Power ground reference | All signals referenced here; exposed pad must be soldered to PCB ground plane for thermal and EMI performance. |
| INB | Inverting logic input | Active-high inverting control; tie to VSS if unused to avoid floating input. |
| IN | Non-inverting logic input | Active-high noninverting control; tie to VDD if unused to ensure defined state. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Dual complementary outputs (OUT + PILOT) | Enables independent optimization of turnon (via OUT) and turnoff (via local PILOT-driven FET), reducing Miller-induced false turnon in high-dV/dt applications. |
| Matched propagation delays | Inverting and noninverting inputs exhibit matched tD-ON/tD-OFF (±1 ns typical), simplifying timing-critical synchronous rectifier or half-bridge control. |
| 14-V logic input tolerance | Eliminates need for external level shifters when interfacing with legacy analog PWM controllers or microcontrollers with 5-V or 3.3-V I/O. |
| Integrated UVLO with clamp | Forces OUT low and clamps voltage <1 V during brownout - prevents partial turn-on and shoot-through in multi-phase or cascaded converter topologies. |
| Thermally enhanced WSON-6 | Exposed pad and RθJA = 60°C/W enable >1.5 W continuous dissipation at 25°C ambient, supporting high-duty-cycle motor gate drive. |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar low-side gate driver applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| UCC27524ADRV | Single-channel, 5-A sink/3-A source, no PILOT output; 12-V max VDD; 15-V input tolerance. | Lacks complementary PILOT output - cannot implement local turnoff path; requires external circuitry for shoot-through prevention. | Select when PILOT functionality is unnecessary and cost sensitivity outweighs layout optimization benefits. |
| LM5112MYX | Single-channel, 7-A sink/5-A source, includes dedicated turnoff assist (TOFF) pin; 16-V max VDD; 20-V input tolerance. | TOFF pin provides active pull-down only (no sourcing), differing from LM5134ASD/NOPB's full PILOT complementarity. | Prefer when aggressive turnoff speed is prioritized over independent turnon control and system-level timing flexibility. |
Compared with UCC27524ADRV and LM5112MYX, LM5134ASD/NOPB uniquely combines high peak current, true complementary PILOT timing, and integrated UVLO clamp - making it optimal for high-reliability, high-dV/dt applications where gate loop inductance must be minimized without adding discrete components.

FAQ
What is the maximum allowable VDD voltage for LM5134ASD/NOPB?
The absolute maximum VDD voltage for LM5134ASD/NOPB is 14 V, but the recommended operating range is 4 V to 12.6 V per TI SNVS808C datasheet Section 6.3. Exceeding 12.6 V may trigger UVLO release but risks reliability degradation; operation above 14 V causes permanent damage. LM5134ASD/NOPB maintains full 7.6-A sink capability across its 4–12.6 V range.
Does LM5134ASD/NOPB support both inverting and noninverting logic configurations?
Yes, LM5134ASD/NOPB supports both configurations using its dual inputs: IN (noninverting) and INB (inverting). When IN is driven and INB tied to VSS, the device operates noninverting; when INB is driven and IN tied to VDD, it operates inverting. Truth table in Section 7.4 confirms identical OUT/PILOT behavior for both modes, enabling flexible integration with diverse PWM controllers.
How does the PILOT output improve switching reliability in high-dV/dt applications?
The PILOT output on LM5134ASD/NOPB drives an external low-inductance turnoff FET placed adjacent to the main power MOSFET, creating a localized low-impedance discharge path. This reduces gate loop inductance and prevents false turnon caused by Miller capacitance coupling during high-dV/dt transitions - a critical advantage verified in CCM PFC and motor drive applications using LM5134ASD/NOPB.
What is the purpose of the UVLO circuit in LM5134ASD/NOPB?
The UVLO circuit in LM5134ASD/NOPB disables output drive and actively clamps the OUT pin below 1 V when VDD drops below 3.25–4.0 V (with 0.36-V hysteresis). This ensures the power FET remains safely OFF during brownout or startup, preventing partial turn-on, shoot-through, or uncontrolled conduction - a requirement confirmed in TI's application note SLUA901 for industrial power systems using LM5134ASD/NOPB.
Is LM5134ASD/NOPB pin-compatible with other members of the LM5134 family?
Yes, LM5134ASD/NOPB shares identical 6-pin WSON (NGG) package, pinout, and footprint with LM5134BSD/NOPB and LM5134SD/NOPB. Differences are limited to input threshold logic (LM5134A = CMOS, LM5134B = TTL) and minor electrical specs - all variants use the same VDD, OUT, PILOT, VSS, IN, and INB pin assignments and can be substituted without PCB changes.
