Working Principles

The L6386D013TR is a high-voltage gate driver IC designed to drive power MOSFETs or IGBTs in motor control applications. It operates by receiving logic signals at the input pin (IN) and generating corresponding gate drive signals at the HO and LO outputs. The high-side and low-side drivers are isolated, allowing efficient switching of power devices up to 600V.

The integrated bootstrap diode simplifies the design by eliminating the need for an external diode. Adaptive dead-time generation ensures that there is no overlap between the high-side and low-side gate signals, preventing shoot-through current and improving overall efficiency.

Under-voltage lockout protection ensures reliable operation by disabling the outputs when the supply voltage falls below a certain threshold. Additionally, thermal shutdown protection prevents damage to the IC due to excessive temperature.
