ISODrivers with System Safety Features

The Si828x (Si8285 and Si8286) are isolated, high current gate drivers with integrated

system safety and feedback function. The devices are ideal for driving power MOSFETs

and IGBTs used in a wide variety of inverter and motor control applications. The Si8285

and Si8286 isolated gate drivers utilize Silicon Labs' proprietary silicon isolation technol-

ogy, supporting up to 5.0 kVrms withstand voltage per UL1577. This technology enables

higher-performance, reduced variation with temperature and age, tighter part-to-part

matching, and superior common-mode rejection compared to other isolated gate driver

technologies.

The input to the device is a complementary digital input that can be utilized in several

configurations. The input side of the isolation also has several control and feedback digi-

tal signals. The controller to the device receives information about the driver side power

state (Si8285) and fault state of the device and recovers the device from fault through an

active-low reset pin.

On the output side, the Si8285 provides separate pull-up and pull-down pins for the gate.

The Si8286 has a single pin for both functions. A dedicated DSAT pin detects the desa-

turation condition and immediately shuts down the driver in a controlled manner. The

Si8285 device also integrates a Miller clamp to facilitate a strong turn-off of the power

switch.

Automotive Grade is available for certain part numbers. These products are built using

automotive-specific flows at all steps in the manufacturing process to ensure the robust-

ness and low defectivity required for automotive applications.

2. System Overview

2.1 Isolation Channel Description

The operation of a Si8285 or Si8286 channel is analogous to that of an optocoupler and gate driver, except an RF carrier is modulated

instead of light. This simple architecture provides a robust isolated data path and requires no special considerations or initialization at

start-up. A simplified block diagram for a single Si828x channel is shown in the figure below.

A channel consists of an RF Transmitter and RF Receiver separated by a semiconductor-based isolation barrier. Referring to the

Transmitter, input A modulates the carrier provided by an RF oscillator using on/off keying. The Receiver contains a demodulator that

decodes the input state according to its RF energy content and applies the result to output B via the output driver. This RF on/off keying

scheme is superior to pulse code schemes as it provides best-in-class noise immunity, low power consumption, and better immunity to

magnetic fields.

2.3 Input

The IN+ and IN– inputs to the Si828x devices act as a complementary pair. If the IN– is held low, the IN+ will act as a active-high input

for the driver control. Alternatively, if IN+ is held high, then the IN– can be used as an active-low input for driver control. When the IN– is

used as the control signal, taking the IN+ low will hold the output driver low.

2.4 Output

The Si8285 and Si8286 devices are different in how the driver output is presented. The Si8285 has separate pins for gate drive high

(VH) and gate drive low (VL). This makes it simple for the user to use different gate resistors to control IGBT VCE rise and fall time. The

Si8286 has both actions combined in the single VO pin. A weak internal pulldown resistor of about 200 kΩ is provided to ensure that the

driver output defaults to low if power on the secondary side is interrupted.

System Overview

2.5 Desaturation Detection

The Si828x provides sufficient voltage and current to drive and keep the IGBT in saturation during on time to minimize power dissipa-

tion and maintain high efficiency operation. However, abnormal load conditions can force the IGBT out of saturation and cause perma-

nent damage to the IGBT.

To protect the IGBT during abnormal load conditions, the Si828x detects an IGBT desaturation condition, shuts down the driver upon

detecting a fault, and provides a fault indication to the controller. These integrated features provide desaturation protection with mini-

mum external BOM cost. The figure below illustrates the Si828x desaturation circuit. When the Si828x driver output is high, the internal

current source is on, and this current flows from the DSAT pin to charge the CBL capacitor. The voltage on the DSAT pin is monitored

by an internal comparator. Since the DSAT pin is connected to the IGBT collector through the DDSAT and a small RDSAT, its voltage is

almost the same as the VCE of the IGBT. If the VCE of the IGBT does not drop below the Si828x desaturation threshold voltage within a

certain time after turning on the IGBT (blanking period) the block will generate a fault signal. The Si828x desaturation hysteresis is fixed

at 220 mV and threshold is nominally 7 V.

Figure 2.3. Desaturation Circuit

As an additional feature, the block supports a blanking timer function to mask the turn-on transient of the external switching device and

avoid unexpected fault signal generation. This function requires an external blanking capacitor, CBL, of typically 100 pF between DSAT

and VMID pins. The block includes a 1 mA current source (IChg) to charge the CBL. This current source, the value of the external CBL,

and the programmed fault threshold, determine the blanking time (tBlanking).

tBlanking =CBI ×

VDESAT

Ichg

An internal nmos switch is implemented between DSAT and VMID to discharge the external blanking capacitor, CBL, and reset the

blanking timer. The current limiting RDSAT resistor protects the DSAT pin from large current flow toward the IGBT collector during the

IGBT’s body diode freewheeling period (with possible large collector’s negative voltage, relative to IGBT’s emitter).

2.6 Soft Shutdown

To avoid excessive dV/dt on the IGBT’s collector during fault shut down, the Si828x implements a soft shut down feature to discharge

the IGBT’s gate slowly. When soft shut down is activated, the high power driver goes inactive, and a weak pull down via VH and exter-

nal RH discharges the gate until the gate voltage level is reduced to the VSSB + 2 V level. The high power driver is then turned on to

clamp the IGBT gate voltage to VMID.

After the soft shut down, the Si828x driver output voltage is clamped low to keep the IGBT in the off state.

2.7 Fault (FLTb) Pin

FLTb is an open-drain type output. A pull-up resistor takes the pin high. When the desaturation condition is detected, the Si828x indi-

cates the fault by bringing the FLTb pin low. FLTb stays low until the controller brings the RSTb pin low.

Si8285/86 Data Sheet

System Overview

silabs.com | Building a more connected world. Rev. 1.0 | 8

2.8 Reset (RSTb) Pin

The RSTb pin is used to clear the desaturation condition and bring the Si828x driver back to an operational state. Even though the input

may be toggling, the driver will not change state until the fault condition has been reset.

2.9 Undervoltage Lockout (UVLO)

The UVLO circuit unconditionally drives VL low when VDDB is below the lockout threshold. The Si828x is maintained in UVLO until

VDDB rises above VDDBUV+. During power down, the Si828x enters UVLO when VDDB falls below the UVLO threshold plus hysteresis

(i.e., VDDB < VDDBUV+ – VDDBHYS).

2.10 Ready (RDY) Pin (Si8285 Only)

The ready pin indicates to the controller that power is available on both sides of the isolation, i.e., at VDDA and VDDB. RDY goes high

when both the primary side and secondary side UVLO circuits are disengaged. If the UVLO conditions are met on either side of the

isolation barrier, the ready pin will return low. RDY is a push-pull output pin and can be floated if not used.

2.11 Miller Clamp

IGBT power circuits are commonly connected in a half bridge configuration with the collector of the bottom IGBT tied to the emitter of

the top IGBT.

When the upper IGBT turns on (while the bottom IGBT is in the off state), the voltage on the collector of the bottom IGBT flies up sever-

al hundred volts quickly (fast dV/dt). This fast dV/dt induces a current across the IGBT collector-to-gate capacitor (CCG that constitutes

a positive gate voltage spike and can turn on the bottom IGBT. This behavior is called Miller parasitic turn on and can be destructive to

the switch since it causes shoot through current from the rail right across the two IGBTs to ground. The Si828x Miller clamp’s purpose

is to clamp the gate of the IGBT device being driven by the Si828x to prevent IGBT turn on due to the collector CCG coupling.

Figure 2.4. Miller Clamp Device

The Miller clamp device (Clamp) is engaged after the main driver had been on (VL) and pulled IGBT gate voltage close to VSSB, such

that one can consider the IGBT being already off. This timing prevents the Miller clamp from interfering with the driver’s operation. The

engaging of the Miller Clamp is done by comparing the IGBT gate voltage with a 2.0 V reference (relative to VSSB) before turning on

the Miller clamp NMOS.

Figure 3.3. Recommended Si8286 Application Circuit with RH and RL

The Si828x has both inverting and non-inverting gate control inputs (IN– and IN+). In normal operation, one of the inputs is not used,

and should be connected to GNDA (IN–) or VDDA (IN+) respectively for proper logic termination. The Si828x has an active low reset

input (RSTb), an active high ready (RDY) push pull output, and an open drain fault (FLTb) output that requires a weak 10 kΩ pull-up

resistor. The FLTb outputs from multiple Si828x devices can be connected in an OR wiring configuration to provide one single FLTb

signal to the MCU. The Si828x gate driver will shut down when a fault is detected. It then provides FLTb indication to the MCU, and

remains in the shutdown state until the MCU applies a reset signal.

To power the Si828x, the supply for VDDA should be able to handle 10 mA of current and the supplies to VDDB, and VSSB have to be

able to handle 20 mA. Each supply should have 0.1 µF bypass capacitors to provide large switching transient current. The VSSB supply

is optional but it operates better with the CLMP circuit to secure the IGBT in the off state against the collector to gate Miller current.

VSSB should be shorted to VMID if VSSB supply is not available.

The desaturation sensing circuit consisted of the 100 pF blanking capacitor, 100 Ω current limiting resistor, and DSAT diode. These

components provide current and voltage protection for the Si828x desaturation DSAT pin and it is critical to place these components as

close to the IGBT as possible. Also, on the layout, make sure that the loop area forming between these components and the IGBT be

minimized for optimum desaturation detection. The Si8285 has VH and VL gate drive outputs with external 10 Ω resistors to limit output

gate current. The value of these resistors can be adjusted to independently control IGBT collector voltage rise and fall time. The Si8286

only has one VO gate drive output with an external 10 Ω resistor to control IGBT collector voltage rise and fall time. The CLMP output

should be connected to the gate of the IGBT directly to provide clamping action between the gate and VSSB. This clamping action

dissipates IGBT Miller current from collector to the gate to secure the IGBT in the off-state.

3.1.1 Power

To power the Si828x, the supply for VDDA should be able to handle 10 mA of current, the VDDB, and VSSB have to be able to handle

the Si828x biasing current plus the average IGBT gate current drive (see 3.3 Power Dissipation Considerations). Each supply should

have 0.1 μF bypass capacitor to provide large switching transient current in parallel with a 10 μF capacitor. The VSSB supply is option-

al, but it operates better with the CLMP circuit to secure the IGBT in the off state against the collector to gate Miller current. The VSSB

pin should be shorted to VMID if VSSB supply is not available.

3.1.2 Inputs

The Si828x has both inverting and non-inverting gate control inputs (IN– and IN+). In normal operation, one of the inputs is not used

and should be connected to GNDA (IN–) or VDDA (IN+) for proper logic termination. Inputs should be driven by CMOS level push-pull

output. If input is driven by the MCU GPIO, it is recommended that the MCU be located as closed to the Si828x as possible to minimize

PCB trace parasitic and noise coupling to the input circuit.

Si8285/86 Data Sheet

Applications Information

silabs.com | Building a more connected world. Rev. 1.0 | 11

3.1.3 Reset, RDY, and Fault

The Si828x has an active high ready (RDY) push pull output, an open drain fault (FLTb) output, and an active low reset input (RSTb)

that require pull-up resistors. Fast common-mode transients in high-power circuits can inject noise and glitches into these pins due to

parasitic coupling. Depending on the IGBT power circuit layout, additional capacitance (100 pF to 470 pF) can be included on these

pins to prevent faulty RDY and FLTb indications as well as unintended reset to the device.

The FLTb outputs from multiple Si828x devices can be connected in an OR wiring configuration to provide a single FLTb signal to the

MCU.

The Si828x gate driver will shut down when a fault is detected. It then provides FLTb indication to the MCU and remains in the shut-

down state until the MCU applies a reset signal.

3.1.4 Desaturation

The desaturation sensing circuit consists of the blanking capacitor (100 pF for Si8286 and 390 pF for Si8285), 100 Ω current limiting

resistor, and DSAT diode. These components provide current and voltage protection for the Si828x desaturation DSAT pin, and it is

critical to place these components as close to the IGBT as possible. Also, on the layout, make sure that the loop area forming between

these components and the IGBT is minimized for optimum desaturation detection.

3.1.5 Driver Outputs

The Si8285 has VH and VL gate drive outputs (see Figure 3.1 Recommended Si8285 Application Circuit on page 10). They work with

external RH and RL resistors to limit output gate current. The value of these resistors can be adjusted to independently control IGBT

collector voltage rise and fall time. The Si8286 only has one VO gate drive output with an external gate resistor to control IGBT collector

voltage rise and fall time (see Figure 3.2 Recommended Si8286 Application Circuit on page 10). To achieve independent rise and fall

time control, it is suggested to add a pair of fast diodes to the Si8286 VO circuit (see Figure 3.3 Recommended Si8286 Application

Circuit with RH and RL on page 11).

The CLMP output should be connected to the gate of the IGBT directly to provide clamping action between the gate and VSSB pin. This

clamping action dissipates IGBT Miller current from the collector to the gate to secure the IGBT in the off-state. Negative VSSB pro-

vides further help to ensure the gate voltage stays below the IGBT’s Vth during the off state.

3.2 Layout Considerations

It is most important to minimize ringing in the drive path and noise on the supply lines. Care must be taken to minimize parasitic induc-

tance in these paths by locating the Si828x as close as possible to the device it is driving. In addition, the supply and ground trace

paths must be kept short. For this reason, the use of power and ground planes is highly recommended. A split ground plane system

having separate ground and power planes for power devices and small signal components provides the best overall noise performance.

3.3 Power Dissipation Considerations

Proper system design must assure that the Si828x operates within safe thermal limits across the entire load range. The Si828x total

power dissipation is the sum of the power dissipated by bias supply current, internal parasitic switching losses, and power dissipated by

the series gate resistor and load. Equation 1 shows total Si828x power dissipation.

PD = (VDDA)(IDDA) + (VDDB)(IDDB) + f×Qint ×VDDB +1

(

)(

QIGBT

)

(VDDB)Rp

Rp +RH +Rn

Rn +RL

where:

PD is the total Si828x device power dissipation (W).

IDDA is the input-side maximum bias current (5 mA).

IDDB is the driver die maximum bias current (5 mA).

Qint is the internal parasitic charge (3 nC).

VDDA is the input-side VDD supply voltage (2.7 to 5.5 V).

VDDB is the total driver-side supply voltage (VDDB + VSSB: 12.5 to 30 V).

f is the IGBT switching frequency (Hz).

RH is the VH external gate resistor, RL is the VL external gate resistor. For Si8286, RG works for both RH and RL.

RP is the RDS(ON) of the driver pull-up switch: (2.6 Ω).

Rn is the RDS(ON) of the driver pull-down switch: (0.8 Ω).

Equation 1

The maximum power dissipation allowable for the Si828x is a function of the package thermal resistance, ambient temperature, and

maximum allowable junction temperature, as shown in Equation 2:

PDmax ≤Tjmax −TA

θja

where:

PDmax = Maximum Si828x power dissipation (W).

Tjmax = Si828x maximum junction temperature (150 °C).

TA = Ambient temperature (°C)

θja = Si828x junction-to-air thermal resistance (60 °C/W for four-layer PCB)

f = Si828x switching frequency (Hz)

Equation 2

Substituting values for PDmax Tjmax (150 °C), TA (125 °C), and θja (90 °C/W) into Equation 2 results in a maximum allowable total

power dissipation of 0.42 W.

PDmax ≤150 −125

60 = 0.42W

Maximum allowable load is found by substituting this limit and the appropriate data sheet values from Table 4.1 into Equation 1 and

simplifying. The result is Equation 3.

From which the driver junction temperature is calculated using Equation 2, where:

Pd is the total Si828x device power dissipation (W)

θja is the thermal resistance from junction to air (60 °C/W in this example)

TA is the maximum ambient temperature (125 °C)

Tj =Pd ×θja +TA

Tj = (0.1) × (90) + 125 = 134°C
