8 Detailed Description
8.1 Overview
Figure 10 shows the LMG5200, half-bridge, GaN power stage with a highly integrated high-side and low-side
gate drivers which includes built in UVLO protection circuitry and a over voltage clamp circuitry. The clamp
circuitry limits the bootstrap refresh operation to ensure that the high-side gate driver overdrive does not exceed
5.4 V. The device integrates two, 18-mΩ GaN FETs in a half-bridge configuration. The device can be used in
many isolated and non-isolated topologies allowing very simple integration. The package is designed to minimize
the loop inductance while keeping the PCB design simple. The drive strengths for turn-on and turn-off are
optimized to ensure high voltage slew rates without causing any excessive ringing on the gate or power loop.
