DESCRIPTION
The DRV8301 is a gate driver IC for three phase
motor drive applications. It provides three half bridge
drivers, each capable of driving two N-type
MOSFETs, one for the high-side and one for the low
side. It supports up to 2.3A sink and 1.7A source
peak current capability and only needs a single power
supply with a wide range from 8 to 60V. The
DRV8301 uses bootstrap gate drivers with trickle
charge circuitry to support 100% duty cycle. The gate
driver uses automatic hand shaking when high side
FET or low side FET is switching to prevent current
shoot through. Vds of FETs is sensed to protect
external power stage during overcurrent conditions.
The DRV8301 includes two current shunt amplifiers
for accurate current measurement. The current
amplifiers support bi-directional current sensing and
provide an adjustable output offset of up to 3V.
The DRV8301 also has an integrated switching mode
buck converter with adjustable output and switching
frequency to support MCU or additional system power
needs. The buck is capable to drive up to 1.5A load.
The SPI interface provides detailed fault reporting
and flexible parameter settings such as gain options
for current shunt amplifier, slew rate control of gate
driver, etc.
