Features Maximum input voltage: DC 410V Support evaluation of switching characteristics using 2-pulse test Support continuous power supply test depending on thermal design (up to 400W / 800W using attached heatsink) Reference design for PCB layout and gate driver circuit High speed switching and high frequency operation performance Include isolated DCDC and able to configure to bootstraps design easily Application Half bridge topology for power supply testing Block diagram outline : Test terminal The products and product specifications described in the document are subject to change Panasonic without notice for modification and/or improvement. At the final stage of your design, Semiconductor Solutions Co., Ltd. purchasing, or use of the products, therefore, ask for the most up- to-date Product Standards in advance to make sure that the latest specifications satisfy your requirements. 1 Kotari-yakemachi, Nagaokakyo, Kyoto 617-8520, Japan As of March, 2017 Terminal information Terminal Terminal Function Function Name Name IN L Low side input signal with 3.3V/5V CMOS logic option AUXH- Auxiliary power supply ground GND Input ground AUXL+ Auxiliary power supply IN H High side input signal with 3.3V/5V CMOS logic option AUXL- Auxiliary power supply ground EN Enable VPN Half bridge input power supply VDD Isolator input supply (3.3V~5.5V) LX Half bridge output AUXH+ Auxiliary power supply VS Half bridge power ground Recommended Operating Conditions Parameter Condition Parameter Condition DC power supply 100V ~ 410V External clock signal 3.3V~ 5V Auxiliary power supply 10V ~ 13V Temperature 25C Evaluation circuit diagram Low Side Test High Side Test Examples of switching waveforms Important notice To avoid electric shock, please ensure to check the capacitor connected with line VPN and VS is discharged after evaluation. Depending on the conditions of the evaluation, please use an appropriate inductor for the DC superposition characteristics. Otherwise, there is possibility that GaN power transistor is damaged due to large current bym agnetic saturation.. Please adjust the pulse width so the maximum drain-source current rating is not exceeded.
