3 Description

The UCCx8C5x family of devices are highperformance

current-mode PWM controllers that

can drive both Si and SiC MOSFETs in various

applications. The UCCx8C5x family is a more efficient

and robust version of the UCCx8C4x.

The UCCx8C5x family has new UVLO thresholds

that allow for reliable SiC MOSFET operation

(UCC28C56-59), in addition to existing UVLO

thresholds for continued Si MOSFET support

(UCCx8C50-55).

VDD absolute maximum voltage rating is extended

from 20 V to 30 V for optimally driving the gate of

20-Vgs, 18-Vgs, or 15-Vgs SiC MOSFETs, while also

allowing for the exclusion of an external LDO.
