Product details
Overview
LT1162ISW#PBF from Analog Devices (formerly Linear Technology) is a dual high-voltage N-channel MOSFET gate driver IC for half-bridge and full-bridge topologies. It integrates two independent drivers, supports up to 60V floating top-side operation, delivers 1.5A peak output current, features adaptive nonoverlapping gate control to prevent shoot-through, and operates from 10V to 15V supply with TTL/CMOS-compatible inputs - used in synchronous buck regulators and brushless DC motor drives.
For engineers reviewing the LT1162ISW#PBF datasheet, LT1162ISW#PBF pinout, LT1162ISW#PBF application, or LT1162ISW#PBF equivalent, key selection criteria include its 60V HV rail tolerance, dual-channel isolation, undervoltage lockout with hysteresis on both V+ and BOOST, 180ns typical transition time into 10nF load, and industrial temperature range (–40°C to +85°C).
Technical Context
The LT1162ISW#PBF implements two fully independent gate driver channels, each with separate input, drive, feedback, and supply pins. Its adaptive shoot-through protection monitors gate feedback voltages (T GATE FB / B GATE FB) to enforce dead-time - turning off one MOSFET before enabling the other - eliminating external timing components and MOSFET matching requirements.
It uses bootstrap topology for high-side drive: BOOST and T SOURCE pins interface with an external capacitor to generate a floating supply for the top driver. Undervoltage detection operates independently on V+ (7.8V–9.7V threshold) and BOOST-to-T SOURCE (8.2V–9.8V), ensuring safe disable under brownout conditions on either rail.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Supply Voltage Range | 10V to 15V - ensures stable operation across standard logic-supply rails; absolute max 20V prevents latch-up during transients. |
| Floating Top-Side Voltage | Up to 60V - enables direct driving of high-side N-MOSFETs in buck, half-bridge, and motor inverters without level-shifting. |
| Peak Output Current | 1.5A - sufficient to rapidly charge/discharge gates of multiple paralleled MOSFETs (e.g., IRFZ44) at >100kHz switching frequencies. |
| Transition Time (10nF) | 180ns typical - minimizes switching losses in high-efficiency power stages; rise/fall times specified separately (90–200ns). |
| Undervoltage Lockout | V+ threshold: 7.8V–9.7V (0.5V hysteresis); BOOST–T SOURCE threshold: 8.2V–9.8V - prevents partial turn-on during startup or brownout. |
| Operating Temperature | –40°C to +85°C - qualified for industrial environments including motor control and power supplies. |
| Input Logic Levels | VIL ≤ 0.8V, VIH ≥ 1.7V - compatible with TTL and CMOS logic families without level translation. |
Pinout & Package
LT1162ISW#PBF is housed in a 24-pin SO Wide (SW) package with 0.300-inch body width and gull-wing leads. Thermal resistance θJA = 80°C/W supports moderate-power applications without forced airflow.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| SV+ (Pins 1, 7) | Main signal supply input | Provides bias for logic and bottom driver; requires local 10µF decoupling to GND A/B. |
| IN TOP A/B (Pins 2, 8) | Top driver enable input | TTL/CMOS-compatible; disables when corresponding IN BOTTOM is high - enforces mutual exclusion. |
| IN BOTTOM A/B (Pins 3, 9) | Bottom driver enable input | Same logic compatibility; disables when corresponding IN TOP is high - prevents simultaneous conduction. |
| UV OUT A/B (Pins 4, 10) | Open-collector undervoltage flag | Sinks current when V+ falls below lockout threshold - used for system fault signaling or controller reset. |
| GND A/B (Pins 5, 11) | Signal ground reference | Separate ground returns for each channel reduce crosstalk; must tie to system ground at single point. |
| B GATE FB A/B (Pins 6, 12) | Bottom gate voltage monitor | Direct connection to MOSFET gate; inhibits top driver until gate discharges below 2.5V - ensures clean dead-time. |
| PV+ (Pins 14, 20) | Bottom driver supply | Connected to same rail as SV+; powers low-side gate driver stage. |
| T SOURCE (Pins 15, 21) | High-side return node | Connects to source of top MOSFET and low side of bootstrap capacitor - defines floating reference for top driver. |
| T GATE FB A/B (Pins 16, 22) | Top gate voltage monitor | Direct gate connection; inhibits bottom driver until VGS drops below 2.9V - critical for shoot-through prevention. |
| T GATE DR A/B (Pins 17, 23) | Top gate drive output | High-current source/sink node; series gate resistor optional to damp ringing and control dV/dt. |
| BOOST A/B (Pins 18, 24) | Bootstrap capacitor high-side node | Charged via internal diode during low-side conduction; provides floating VDD for top driver during high-side on-time. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Adaptive nonoverlapping gate drive | Eliminates need for external dead-time generators or matched MOSFETs by monitoring gate feedback voltages in real time. |
| Floating top driver (60V max) | Enables use of efficient N-channel MOSFETs on high-side switches without P-channel or isolated gate drivers. |
| Dual independent channels | Each channel has dedicated inputs, outputs, and feedback - supports H-bridge motor control or dual-phase synchronous rectification. |
| Undervoltage lockout with hysteresis | Independent monitoring of V+ and BOOST–T SOURCE rails prevents erratic behavior during supply ramp-up or brownout events. |
| TTL/CMOS input compatibility | Accepts standard logic levels directly - simplifies interface with microcontrollers, PWM controllers (e.g., LT3526), and FPGA outputs. |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar N-channel half-bridge gate driver applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| IRS21844PbF | Higher 600V floating capability; integrated bootstrap diode; no gate feedback pins - relies on fixed dead-time. | Targeted at higher-voltage AC-DC PFC and inverter stages; less suitable for precision shoot-through-critical motor control. | Choose IRS21844PbF for >100V bus applications where fixed dead-time is acceptable; LT1162ISW#PBF preferred where adaptive protection is required. |
| LM5109BMAX | Single-channel; 100V max floating voltage; no UVLO on BOOST rail; 1.2A peak current - lower drive strength. | Optimized for cost-sensitive buck converters; lacks dual-channel integration for H-bridge or 3-phase systems. | Use LM5109BMAX for single-leg synchronous rectification; LT1162ISW#PBF remains optimal for dual-leg motor or inverter control requiring matched timing and independent UVLO. |
Compared with IRS21844PbF and LM5109BMAX, the LT1162ISW#PBF uniquely combines dual-channel integration, adaptive shoot-through protection via gate feedback, and independent BOOST-rail UVLO - making it the preferred choice for industrial motor drives and high-reliability synchronous buck designs where MOSFET safety and timing precision are critical.

FAQ
What is the maximum floating voltage supported by the LT1162ISW#PBF high-side driver?
The LT1162ISW#PBF supports a maximum floating top-side voltage of 60V referenced to its T SOURCE pin. This is specified in the Absolute Maximum Ratings table and validated across the full –40°C to +85°C industrial temperature range. Operation above 60V risks permanent damage; for higher-voltage applications, consider alternatives like the IRS21844PbF rated to 600V.
Does the LT1162ISW#PBF require external bootstrap diodes?
No, the LT1162ISW#PBF does not require external bootstrap diodes. Its internal architecture includes integrated diodes that charge the external bootstrap capacitor (connected between BOOST and T SOURCE) during the bottom-FET conduction phase. External diodes are unnecessary and would interfere with normal operation.
How does the adaptive shoot-through protection work in the LT1162ISW#PBF?
The LT1162ISW#PBF implements adaptive shoot-through protection by continuously monitoring T GATE FB and B GATE FB pins. Before enabling one driver, it verifies the opposing MOSFET's gate voltage has discharged below 2.9V (top) or 2.5V (bottom). This real-time feedback enforces dynamic dead-time - no fixed delays or external components needed - ensuring zero shoot-through across temperature, voltage, and load variations.
What is the purpose of the UV OUT pin on the LT1162ISW#PBF?
The UV OUT pin on the LT1162ISW#PBF is an open-collector NPN output that actively pulls low when the main supply voltage (V+) drops below the undervoltage lockout threshold (7.8V–9.7V). It signals system-level controllers of supply fault conditions and can be used to disable upstream PWM generators or trigger fault latches - enhancing system safety during brownout events.
Can the LT1162ISW#PBF drive multiple parallel MOSFETs per channel?
Yes, the LT1162ISW#PBF can drive up to five parallel N-channel MOSFETs per channel, as confirmed in the Applications Information section. Gate drive strength (1.5A peak) and thermal design (θJA = 80°C/W) support this configuration; however, individual gate resistors (10Ω–47Ω) are recommended to suppress high-frequency oscillations and ensure uniform turn-on/turn-off across paralleled devices.
