Description
The L6491 is a high voltage device manufactured
with the BCD6 “OFF-LINE” technology. It is
a single-chip half-bridge gate driver for N-channel
power MOSFET or IGBT.
The high-side (floating) section is designed to
stand a voltage rail up to 600 V. The logic inputs
are CMOS/TTL compatible down to 3.3 V for easy
interfacing microcontroller/DSP.
An integrated comparator is available for fast
protection against overcurrent, overtemperature,
etc.
