The DRV7167A device is a family of 100V half-bridge power stages, with integrated
gate-driver and enhancement-mode gallium nitride (GaN) FETs. The devices consist of
a high-frequency GaN FET driver in a half-bridge configuration, that drives two 100V GaN
FETs.
GaN FETs provide significant
advantages for power conversion as GaN FETs have zero reverse recovery and very
small input capacitance (CISS) and output capacitance (COSS).
All the devices are mounted on a completely bond-wire free package platform with
minimized package parasitic elements, which can be easily mounted on PCBs.
The TTL logic compatible inputs
support 3.3V and 5V logic levels, regardless of the GVDD voltage. A proprietary
bootstrap voltage control technique regulates the gate voltages of the enhancement
mode GaN FETs within the safe operating range. The device extends advantages of
discrete GaN FETs by offering a more user-friendly interface. The device is an
excellent option for applications requiring high-frequency, high-efficiency
operation in a small form factor.
