Product details
Overview
STGAP2HSMTR from STMicroelectronics is a galvanically isolated 4 A single-channel gate driver IC for high-side and half-bridge power stage control in industrial inverters and motor drives. It delivers rail-to-rail output, 75 ns input-output propagation delay, 100 V/ns CMTI, and integrated UVLO, thermal shutdown, and standby mode - enabling robust switching of 600 V/1200 V IGBTs and MOSFETs in UPS, PFC, and induction heating systems.
For engineers reviewing the STGAP2HSMTR datasheet, STGAP2HSMTR pinout, STGAP2HSMTR application, or STGAP2HSMTR equivalent, key selection criteria include isolation rating (3.5 kVRMS), Miller clamp capability, separate sink/source configuration flexibility, TTL/CMOS-compatible 3.3 V/5 V inputs with hysteresis, and SO-8W wide-body package suitability for high-voltage PCB layouts.
Technical Context
The STGAP2HSMTR implements dual-input logic control (IN+, IN−) with deglitch filtering and hardware interlocking to prevent cross-conduction, supporting both unipolar and bipolar gate driving topologies. Its isolated floating section features independent VH supply (up to 26 V) referenced to GNDISO, with dedicated UVLO thresholds (VHon = 9.1 V typ., VHoff = 8.4 V typ.) and hysteresis (750 mV typ.).
Two functional configurations are supported: one with single GOUT + CLAMP pin for Miller spike suppression in half-bridges, and another with separated GON/GOFF outputs for independent turn-on/turn-off resistor tuning. Both use the same SO-8W package and share identical isolation certification (IEC 60747-17, UL 1577), safety ratings (VIORM = 1.2 kVPEAK, VIOTM = 5.0 kVPEAK), and thermal derating behavior (Rth(JA) = 120 °C/W).
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Output Drive Current | 4 A sink/source at 25°C - enables direct drive of high-gate-charge IGBTs/MOSFETs without external buffers |
| Propagation Delay | 75 ns max - ensures precise PWM timing alignment in high-frequency (≤1 MHz) switching applications |
| CMTI | 100 V/ns - maintains signal integrity under fast dv/dt transients in noisy industrial environments |
| Isolation Voltage | 3.5 kVRMS (60 s) - certified per UL 1577 and IEC 60747-17 for reinforced insulation in mains-connected systems |
| UVLO Threshold | VHon = 9.1 V, VHoff = 8.4 V - prevents erratic gate switching during brown-out conditions on the isolated side |
| Miller Clamp Threshold | VCLAMPth = 2.0 V typ. - actively clamps gate voltage below threshold to suppress false turn-on in half-bridge legs |
| Standby Quiescent Current | IQDDSBY = 65 µA, IQHSBY = 550 µA - reduces idle power consumption in energy-sensitive systems |
Pinout & Package
STGAP2HSMTR is housed in a wide-body SO-8W package (8-pin, 7.5 mm body width, creepage/clearance ≥8 mm), optimized for high-voltage isolation and thermal performance (Rth(JA) = 120 °C/W). The device supports two pinout variants: "Separate Outputs" (GON/GOFF) and "Single Output + CLAMP" (GOUT/CLAMP); STGAP2HSMTR uses the latter configuration.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1 VDD | Logic Supply Input | 5 V tolerant supply for low-side control circuitry; requires local 100 nF + 1–10 µF bypassing |
| 2 IN+ | Active-High Logic Input | Enables GOUT high when IN− is low; supports TTL/CMOS levels with 0.66·VDD threshold |
| 3 IN− | Active-Low Logic Input | Enables GOUT low when IN+ is low; used with IN+ for HW interlock and deglitched noise immunity |
| 4 GND | Logic Ground Reference | Return path for VDD and logic inputs; must be separated from GNDISO to maintain isolation barrier |
| 5 VH | High-Side Gate Supply | Up to 26 V positive supply for gate driver output stage; UVLO monitored independently |
| 6 GOUT | Rail-to-Rail Output | Sink/source driver output referenced to GNDISO; capable of 4 A peak into capacitive loads |
| 7 CLAMP | Miller Clamp Control | Active-low clamp output triggered at VCLAMPth = 2.0 V; provides low-impedance path to GNDISO |
| 8 GNDISO | Isolated Ground Reference | Return path for VH and GOUT/CLAMP; electrically isolated from GND by certified 3.5 kVRMS barrier |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Dual-input logic with deglitch filter | 20–40 ns input noise rejection prevents spurious switching during EMI events |
| Configurable Miller Clamp | Clamps gate voltage below 2.0 V to eliminate Miller-induced false turn-on in half-bridge topologies |
| Thermal shutdown protection | Triggers at TJ = 170 °C with 20 °C hysteresis - forces safe state until junction cools |
| Hardware interlock via IN+/IN− | Truth table disables simultaneous high states, preventing shoot-through during controller faults |
| Low-power standby mode | Enters after 280 µs of IN+ = IN− = HIGH; exits with precise timing sequence to avoid glitches |

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 | 2.5 A output, 125 V/ns CMTI, 5 kVRMS isolation, no Miller clamp, 8-pin SOIC | Lacks dedicated Miller clamp and separate sink/source configuration; suited for lower-power, cost-sensitive designs | Choose when 2.5 A drive suffices and board space favors standard SOIC over SO-8W |
| UCC5350MCDWVR | 4 A output, 100 V/ns CMTI, 5 kVRMS isolation, integrated Miller clamp, 8-pin SOIC | Uses different input logic (single-input with polarity select), lacks dual-input interlock and standby mode | Prefer when TI ecosystem compatibility or higher isolation margin (5 kVRMS) is prioritized over hardware interlock |
Compared with Si8271BD-IS and UCC5350MCDWVR, STGAP2HSMTR uniquely combines 4 A drive, dual-input interlock, Miller clamp, and standby mode in a single SO-8W package - making it optimal for high-reliability industrial inverters requiring fault resilience and power efficiency.

FAQ
What is the maximum gate drive voltage supported by STGAP2HSMTR?
The STGAP2HSMTR supports a maximum gate drive supply voltage (VH) of 26 V referenced to GNDISO. This rail-to-rail output capability allows direct drive of IGBTs and MOSFETs requiring high gate voltages, while its internal UVLO circuit ensures safe operation only when VH exceeds 9.1 V (typical turn-on threshold) and remains above 8.4 V (typical turn-off threshold).
Does STGAP2HSMTR support both high-side and low-side gate driving configurations?
STGAP2HSMTR is designed as a single-channel isolated gate driver optimized for high-side or floating half-bridge applications. It references its output (GOUT/CLAMP) to GNDISO, enabling direct connection to the source/emitter of high-side switches. For low-side driving, a non-isolated driver or complementary channel would be required - STGAP2HSMTR itself does not support ground-referenced low-side operation.
How does the Miller clamp function operate, and what external components are needed?
The Miller clamp activates when the CLAMP pin detects gate voltage falling below VCLAMPth (2.0 V typ.), creating a low-impedance path from GOUT to GNDISO. No external components are required - the clamp is fully integrated. It operates automatically during turn-off in half-bridge configurations to suppress dv/dt-induced false turn-on, eliminating need for external diodes or resistors in the gate loop.
Can STGAP2HSMTR be used in 1200 V inverter designs?
Yes - STGAP2HSMTR is rated for VIORM = 1.2 kVPEAK and VIOTM = 5.0 kVPEAK, meeting IEC 60747-17 and UL 1577 requirements for reinforced insulation in 1200 V systems. Its 100 V/ns CMTI and thermal shutdown (170 °C) further support reliable operation in high-voltage inverters, provided PCB layout follows ST's guidelines for creepage (≥8 mm) and isolation barrier integrity.
