3 Description

The UCC21737-Q1 is a galvanic isolated single

channel gate driver designed for SiC MOSFETs

and IGBTs up to 2121-V DC operating voltage with

advanced protection features, best-in-class dynamic

performance and robustness. The device has up to

±10-A peak source and sink currents.

The input side is isolated from the output side with

SiO2 capacitive isolation technology, supporting up to

1.5-kVRMS working voltage, 12.8-kVPK surge immunity

with longer than 40 years isolation barrier life, as

well as providing low part-to-part skew, and >150-V/ns

common-mode noise immunity (CMTI).

The UCC21737-Q1 includes the state-of-art protection

features, such as fast overcurrent and short circuit

detection, shunt current sensing support, fault

reporting, active Miller clamp, input and output side

power supply UVLO to optimize SiC and IGBT

switching behavior and robustness. The ASC feature

can be utilized to force ON power switch during

system failure events, further increasing the drivers'

versatility and simplifying the system design effort,

size, and cost.
