(1) Absolute Maximum Ratings indicate limits beyond which damage to the component may occur. Recommended Operating Conditions are
conditions under which operation of the device is ensured. Operating Ratings do not imply ensured performance limits. For ensured
performance limits and associated test conditions, see the Electrical Characteristics.
(2) If Military/Aerospace specified devices are required, please contact the Texas Instruments Sales Office/Distributors for availability and
specifications.
(3) In the application the HS node is clamped by the body diode of the external lower N-MOSFET, therefore the HS voltage will generally
not exceed –1 V. However in some applications, board resistance and inductance may result in the HS node exceeding this stated
voltage transiently. If negative transients occur on HS, the HS voltage must never be more negative than VDD - 15 V. For example, if
VDD = 10 V, the negative transients at HS must not exceed –5 V.

7 Detailed Description
7.1 Overview
The LM5106 is a single PWM input gate driver with Enable that offers a programmable dead-time. The dead-time
is set with a resistor at the RDT pin and can be adjusted from 100 ns to 600 ns. The wide dead-time
programming range provides the flexibility to optimize drive signal timing for a wide range of MOSFETs and
applications.
The RDT pin is biased at 3 V and current limited to 1 mA maximum programming current. The time delay
generator will accommodate resistor values from 5k to 100k with a dead-time time that is proportional to the RDT
resistance. Grounding the RDT pin programs the LM5106 to drive both outputs with minimum dead-time.
7.2 Functional Block Diagram
7.3 Feature Description
7.3.1 Start-up and UVLO
Both top and bottom drivers include undervoltage lockout (UVLO) protection circuitry which monitors the supply
voltage (VDD) and bootstrap capacitor voltage (HB HS) independently. The UVLO circuit inhibits each driver
until sufficient supply voltage is available to turn on the external MOSFETs, and the UVLO hysteresis prevents
chattering during supply voltage transitions. When the supply voltage is applied to the VDD pin of the LM5106, the
top and bottom gates are held low until VDD exceeds the UVLO threshold, typically about 6.9 V. Any UVLO
condition on the bootstrap capacitor will disable only the high-side output (HO).

8 Application and Implementation
NOTE
Information in the following applications sections is not part of the TI component
specification, and TI does not warrant its accuracy or completeness. TI’s customers are
responsible for determining suitability of components for their purposes. Customers should
validate and test their design implementation to confirm system functionality.
8.1 Application Information
The LM5106 is one of the latest generation of high-voltage gate drivers which are designed to drive both the
high-side and low-side N-channel MOSFETs in a half-bridge/full bridge configuration or in a synchronous buck
circuit. The floating high-side driver can operate with supply voltages up to 110 V. This allows for N-channel
MOSFET control in half-bridge, full-bridge, push-pull, two switch forward and active clamp topologies.
The outputs of the LM5106 are controlled from a single input. The rising edge of each output can be delayed with
a programming resistor.
Table 1. Highlights
FEATURE BENEFIT
Programmable Turnon Delay Allows optimization of gate drive timings in bridge topologies
Reduces operating current when disabled to improved power system
Enable Pin standby power
Low Power Consumption Improves light load efficiency figures of the power stage.

(3)
The quiescent current of the bootstrap circuit is 10 µA which is negligible compared to the Qgs of the MOSFET.
(4)
QTOTAL = 43.01 nC (5)
In practice the value for the CBOOT capacitor should be greater than that calculated to allow for situations where
the power stage may skip pulse due to load transients. In this circumstance the boot capacitor must maintain the
HB pin voltage above the UVLO voltage for the HB circuit.
As a general rule the local VDD bypass capacitor should be 10 times greater than the value of CBOOT.
VHBL = VHBR VHBH (6)
VHBL = 6.9 V (7)
ΔVHB = 10 V 1.1 V 6.9 V (8)
ΔVHB = 2.0 V (9)
CBOOT = 43.01nc / 2 V (10)
CBOOT = 21.5 nF (11)
The bootstrap and bias capacitors should be ceramic types with X7R dielectric. The voltage rating should be
twice that of the maximum VDD to allow for loss of capacitance once the devices have a DC bias voltage across
them and to ensure long-term reliability of the devices.
The resistor values, RT, for setting turnon delay can be found in Figure 19.

9 Power Supply Recommendations
9.1 Power Dissipation Considerations
The total IC power dissipation is the sum of the gate driver losses and the bootstrap diode losses. The gate
driver losses are related to the switching frequency (f), output load capacitance on LO and HO (CL), and supply
voltage (VDD) and can be roughly calculated as:
PDGATES = 2 f CL VDD2(12)
There are some additional losses in the gate drivers due to the internal CMOS stages used to buffer the LO and
HO outputs. Figure 20 shows the measured gate driver power dissipation versus frequency and load
capacitance. At higher frequencies and load capacitance values, the power dissipation is dominated by the
power losses driving the output loads and agrees well with the Equation 12. This plot can be used to
approximate the power losses due to the gate drivers.

10 Layout
10.1 Layout Guidelines
The optimum performance of high- and low-side gate drivers cannot be achieved without taking due
considerations during circuit board layout. The following points are emphasized:
1. Low ESR / ESL capacitors must be connected close to the IC between VDD and VSS pins and between HB
and HS pins to support high peak currents being drawn from VDD and HB during the turnon of the external
MOSFETs.
2. To prevent large voltage transients at the drain of the top MOSFET, a low ESR electrolytic capacitor and a
good quality ceramic capacitor must be connected between the MOSFET drain and ground (VSS).
3. To avoid large negative transients on the switch node (HS) pin, the parasitic inductances between the source
of the top MOSFET and the drain of the bottom MOSFET (synchronous rectifier) must be minimized.
4. Grounding considerations:
The first priority in designing grounding connections is to confine the high peak currents that charge and
discharge the MOSFET gates to a minimal physical area. This will decrease the loop inductance and
minimize noise issues on the gate terminals of the MOSFETs. The gate driver should be placed as close
as possible to the MOSFETs.
The second consideration is the high current path that includes the bootstrap capacitor, the bootstrap
diode, the local ground referenced bypass capacitor, and the low-side MOSFET body diode. The
bootstrap capacitor is recharged on a cycle-by-cycle basis through the bootstrap diode from the ground
referenced VDD bypass capacitor. The recharging occurs in a short time interval and involves high peak
current. Minimizing this loop length and area on the circuit board is important to ensure reliable operation.
5. The resistor on the RDT pin must be placed very close to the IC and separated from the high current paths
to avoid noise coupling to the time delay generator which could disrupt timer operation.
10.1.1 HS Transient Voltages Below Ground
The HS node will always be clamped by the body diode of the lower external FET. In some situations, board
resistances and inductances can cause the HS node to transiently swing several volts below ground. The HS
node can swing below ground provided:
1. HS must always be at a lower potential than HO. Pulling HO more than –0.3 V below HS can activate
parasitic transistors resulting in excessive current flow from the HB supply, possibly resulting in damage to
the IC. The same relationship is true with LO and VSS. If necessary, a Schottky diode can be placed

Layout Guidelines (continued)
externally between HO and HS or LO and GND to protect the IC from this type of transient. The diode must
be placed as close to the IC pins as possible in order to be effective.
2. HB to HS operating voltage should be 15 V or less. Hence, if the HS pin transient voltage is –5 V, VDD
should be ideally limited to 10V to keep HB to HS below 15 V.
3. Low ESR bypass capacitors from HB to HS and from VCC to VSS are essential for proper operation. The
capacitor should be located at the leads of the IC to minimize series inductance. The peak currents from LO
and HO can be quite large. Any inductances in series with the bypass capacitor will cause voltage ringing at
the leads of the IC which must be avoided for reliable operation.
