3 Description

The DRV3245E-Q1 device is a FET gate driver IC for

three-phase motor-drive applications. The device is

intended for high-temperature automotive applications

and is designed according to the applicable

requirements of ISO 26262 for functional safety

applications. The device provides three half-bridge

drivers each capable of driving a high-side and lowside

N-channel MOSFET while also providing

sophisticated protection and monitoring of the FETs.

A charge-pump driver enables 100% duty cycle and

supports low battery voltages during cold-crank

operation. The integration of current-sense amplifiers,

integrated phase comparators, and SPI-based

configuration enable reduction of the bill of materials

(BOM) and space on the printed circuit board (PCB)

because of the elimination of most external and

passive components.

The DRV3245E-Q1 device also integrates

diagnostics and protection for each internal block and

provides support for common system diagnostic

checks each of which can be instantiated and

reported through SPI. This flexibility of the integrated

features allows the device to integrate seamlessly

into a variety of safety architectures.
