Product details
Overview
MAX22700DASA+ from Analog Devices is a single-channel, differential-input, isolated gate driver optimized for SiC and GaN power transistors in high-frequency motor drives and PV inverters. It delivers 300kV/μs typical common-mode transient immunity (CMTI), 35ns propagation delay at +25°C, 2ns part-to-part delay matching at room temperature, and supports 20ns minimum pulse width with ≤2ns pulse-width distortion. Its GNDB output configuration enables precise B-side UVLO referencing to the transistor source.
For engineers reviewing the MAX22700DASA+ datasheet, MAX22700DASA+ pinout, MAX22700DASA+ application, or MAX22700DASA+ equivalent, this page provides verified technical context on ultra-high CMTI isolation performance, GNDB-referenced gate drive architecture, narrow SOIC package constraints, and design-critical timing parameters for SiC/GaN half-bridge control.
Technical Context
The MAX22700DASA+ implements unidirectional digital galvanic isolation using Maxim's proprietary process, supporting 3kVRMS withstand voltage (60s) and 600VRMS working voltage in its 8-pin narrow SOIC package. Its differential input stage (INP/INN) rejects common-mode noise, while the GNDB pin serves as the reference ground for VDDB and VSSB, enabling direct connection to the power transistor source.
Propagation delay matching (≤2ns at +25°C, ≤5ns over –40°C to +125°C) and 20ns minimum pulse width capability reduce dead-time requirements in high-switching-frequency topologies. The output driver features parallel pMOS/nMOS pull-up (RDSON_H ≤ 4.5Ω) and nMOS pulldown (RDSON_L ≤ 1.25Ω), with active pulldown ensuring safe turn-off during UVLO or thermal shutdown.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| CMTI | 300kV/μs typical - maintains signal integrity under fast dv/dt transients in SiC/GaN inverter legs |
| Propagation Delay (tPLH/tPHL) | 34–39ns at –40°C to +125°C - enables precise timing control in >100kHz switching applications |
| Part-to-Part Delay Matching | ≤2ns at +25°C - reduces inter-device timing skew in multi-phase motor drives |
| Minimum Pulse Width | 20ns - supports PWM frequencies up to 1MHz without pulse dropout |
| Isolation Withstand Voltage (VISO) | 3kVRMS for 60s (narrow SOIC) - meets reinforced insulation requirements per UL1577 |
| Output Driver RDSON (Low-Side) | 1.25Ω max - limits conduction loss and self-heating during high-current gate charging |
| UVLO Threshold (A-side) | VUVLOAP = 2.69–2.95V - ensures reliable startup and brownout protection for 3.3V/5V logic domains |
Pinout & Package
The MAX22700DASA+ is housed in an 8-pin narrow-body SOIC package (S8MS+23 outline, 4mm creepage/clearance, CTI > 600, Group I material) with RoHS-compliant lead finish.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1 - VDDA | A-side positive supply | 3–5.5V logic domain input; bypassed with 1nF || 0.1μF || 1μF ceramics to GNDA |
| 2 - INP | Differential non-inverting input | Weak internal pulldown; paired with INN for noise-immune PWM reception |
| 3 - INN | Differential inverting input | Weak internal pullup to VDDA; rejects common-mode glitches per Figure 3 |
| 4 - GNDA | A-side ground reference | Return path for VDDA and logic inputs; galvanically isolated from B-side grounds |
| 5 - VDDB | B-side positive supply | 13–28V gate drive rail; bypassed with 1nF || 0.1μF || 1μF + 22μF to VSSB |
| 6 - OUT | Gate driver output | Push-pull output referenced to GNDB; drives SiC/GaN gate capacitance directly |
| 7 - GNDB | B-side gate reference | Source-referenced ground for VDDB/VSSB; sets B-side UVLO threshold point |
| 8 - VSSB | B-side negative supply | –16V to 0V relative to GNDB; enables negative gate bias for enhanced SiC turn-off |
Key Features

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar isolated gate driver applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| Si8271BD-IS | Differential input, 5kVRMS wide SOIC, 200kV/μs CMTI, no GNDB pin - uses VSSB-referenced UVLO | Lacks source-referenced GNDB; requires external level-shifting for source-synchronous UVLO in SiC designs | Choose when wider isolation rating is prioritized over source-referenced B-side control |
| ADUM4135BRWZ | Single-ended input, 5kVRMS wide SOIC, 150kV/μs CMTI, integrated Miller clamp - no adjustable UVLO option | Offers Miller clamp but no GNDB or differential input; UVLO fixed at 12V/13.3V thresholds | Prefer for designs needing active Miller clamping over differential noise immunity or GNDB flexibility |
Compared with Si8271BD-IS and ADUM4135BRWZ, the MAX22700DASA+ uniquely combines differential input noise rejection, GNDB-referenced gate drive, and 300kV/μs CMTI in a narrow SOIC footprint-enabling compact, high-reliability SiC/GaN control where source-synchronous UVLO and minimal dead time are critical.

FAQ
What is the isolation rating and certification status of the MAX22700DASA+?
The MAX22700DASA+ is certified to UL1577 and CSA Bulletin 5A with a 3kVRMS withstand voltage rating for 60 seconds in its narrow SOIC package. It achieves 600VRMS maximum working isolation voltage (VIOWM) and has passed surge testing to ±5kV (1.2/50μs waveform) between GNDA and VSSB. VDE 0884-11 certification is pending for wide-body variants only; the MAX22700DASA+ is not VDE-certified.
How does the GNDB pin function in the MAX22700DASA+ and why is it important for SiC/GaN designs?
The GNDB pin in the MAX22700DASA+ serves as the reference ground for both VDDB and VSSB, enabling direct connection to the source terminal of the driven SiC or GaN transistor. This eliminates floating ground errors and allows B-side UVLO to be precisely referenced to the transistor source-critical for reliable turn-off under negative gate bias and for avoiding false triggering during high-dv/dt transitions.
What are the key timing specifications of the MAX22700DASA+ and how do they impact high-frequency inverter design?
The MAX22700DASA+ delivers 34–39ns propagation delay (tPLH/tPHL), ≤2ns part-to-part delay matching at +25°C, ≤5ns over –40°C to +125°C, and 20ns minimum pulse width. These specs allow dead-time reduction to <100ns in 100kHz+ SiC inverters, minimizing conduction losses while maintaining shoot-through immunity-directly improving system efficiency and thermal performance.
Does the MAX22700DASA+ support both single-ended and differential input configurations?
No-the MAX22700DASA+ is a "D" variant and supports differential input only via INP and INN pins. It does not include the EN or IN pins found in "E" versions like MAX22700EASA+. The differential architecture provides inherent common-mode noise rejection, making it ideal for electrically noisy motor drive and inverter environments where signal integrity is critical.
What is the recommended power supply decoupling for the MAX22700DASA+ and why is it structured that way?
For the MAX22700DASA+, VDDA requires parallel 1nF, 0.1μF, and 1μF ceramic capacitors placed close to pins 1 and 4 (VDDA/GNDA); VDDB requires the same ceramic stack plus a bulk 22μF capacitor between pins 5 and 8 (VDDB/VSSB). This multi-tier decoupling suppresses high-frequency switching noise (ceramics) and sustains gate drive current during fast transitions (bulk cap), preventing UVLO faults and output instability.
