EVAL6498L Evaluation board for the L6498L gate driver Data brief Description The L6498L is a high voltage device developed with the BCD6 OFF-LINE technology. It is a single-chip half-bridge gate driver for N-channel power MOSFETs or IGBTs. Both device outputs can sink 2.5 A and source 2 A, making the L6498 particularly suited for medium and high capacity power MOSFETs IGBTs. The integrated bootstrap diode as well as all of the integrated features of this driver make the application PCB design simpler and more compact, and help to reduce the overall bill of Features material. Driver current capability: 2 A source, 2.5 A The EVAL6498L board allows all the L6498L sink features to be evaluated while a power switch in Integrated bootstrap diode TO-220 or TO-247 package is driven. Interlocking function 3.3 V, 5 V TTL/CMOS inputs with hysteresis The board allows the values of relevant external components to be selected and modified so to UVLO on both high-side and low-side sections ease the driver performance evaluation under different applicative conditions and fine pre- dV/dt immunity: 50 V/ns in full temperature tuning of final application components. range Compact and simplified layout Bill of material reduction Flexible, easy and fast design November 2017 DocID031154 Rev 1 1/7 www.st.com For further information contact your local STMicroelectronics sales office Schematic diagram EVAL6498L 1 Schematic diagram Figure 1: EVAL6498L circuit schematic 2/7 DocID031154 Rev 1
