Product Details The LT1910 is a high side gate driver that allows the use of low cost N-channel power MOSFETs for high side switching applications. It contains a completely self-contained charge pump to fully enhance an N-channel MOSFET switch with no external components. When the internal drain comparator senses that the switch current has exceeded the preset level, the switch is turned off and a fault flag is asserted. The switch remains off for a period of time set by an external timing capacitor and then automatically attempts to restart. If the fault still exists, this cycle repeats until the fault is removed, thus protecting the MOSFET. The fault flag becomes inactive once the switch restarts successfully.
The LT1910 has been specifically designed for harsh operating environments such as industrial, avionics and automotive applications where poor supply regulation and/or transients may be present. The device will not sustain damage from supply transients of –15V to 60V. The LT1910 is available in the SO-8 package. Applications. Industrial Control.

Now let’s go back to the high-side drive. Let’s say you apply a voltage of 12V (with reference to ground) to the MOSFET gate. However, when the MOSFET is on, voltage at source is equal to +V. Let’s assume +V is +15V. Now the problem is +12V gate drive (with reference to ground) will not keep the MOSFET on. When the MOSFET is on, the MOSFET source will be at a potential of +15V.

To be on, the MOSFET must have +8V VGS minimum. So, if source is at +15V, the voltage at the gate with respect to ground must be at least +23V. If source was at +300V, for example, gate drive would require a minimum of +308V with respect to ground. This is if the gate drive is referenced to ground. If you have a separate isolated power supply whose ground and the ground of the MOSFET-based circuit are isolated, then you can use that to drive the MOSFET as well.

There are quite a few ways to drive MOSFETs in high-side configuration. The first thing that might come into the minds of many of you would be a boost converter circuit or a charge pump circuit to use as the drive voltage for gate drive.
This concept is sometimes used and isn’t wrong. However, it is usually used when voltage gap between control circuit voltage and gate drive requirement is small. If you needed to step up voltage from 12V to 40V for example, you might be able to accomplish it quite easily. However, a problem arises when there is the need to step up voltages from 12V to, say, 300V.
In such situations, other solutions must be sought. Now let’s talk about the boostrap based drive. Here when the high-side MOSFET is off, a capacitor is charged from the driving voltage. The capacitor charges through the load or a supporting low-side MOFSET. When the high-side MOSFET is to be turned on/driven, the voltage on the capacitor is used to drive the high-side MOSFET.
Thus the limitation of this method is quite obvious. A large enough capacitor should be used for storing the required energy/charge for keeping the high-side MOSFET on for the required time. At the same time, the capacitor must be large enough that during the entire driving time, the voltage doesn't fall below about 8V, in order to prevent the MOSFET from being only partially on. Thus, the bootstrap based drive can not be used for 100% or close to 100% duty cycle.
And the lower the frequency of operation, the larger the required capacitance. The easiest way to drive a MOSFET using the boostrap based drive is to use a dedicated high side MOSFET driver. Some drivers come with just the high-side driver while many come with both high-side and low-side drivers. IR2117, for example, is one driver that contains a single driver that can be used to drive a high-side MOSFET driver.
IR2110, which is arguably the most popular high-low side MOSFET driver, features a high-side driver and a low-side driver in a single device. I’ve written a detailed tutorial regarding the use of IR2110. Here's the tutorial. No matter which method you choose, once you know how to handle the drive requirement, it's really easy. In most cases, I use the bootstrap based drivers, although I do occasionally use isolated power-supply based drive. None of these methods are too difficult and I hope I've managed to provide you a clear answer to your question: 'Why are high-side N-channel MOSFETs to be driven differently from low-side N-channel MOSFETs, and how do we drive the high-side N-channel MOSFET?'
Do let me know your comments and feedback. HI Tahmid, You are doing really appreciable work.
I have a query. I need to generate 600 V dc from a 12 V battery. So I want to use a square wave MOSFET inverter to convert 12 V dc to 12 V ac. I am not using sine-wave inverter because I don't have to run any appliances. After that I will use a high frquency ferrite transformer to get 600 V ac from 12 V ac. Finally I will rectify & filter it to get 600 V dc.
Can I use PWM to control the voltage of the square wave inverter? The output of inverter goes to transformer. Is it okay for the transformer to get a PWM input? If yes then what should be the range of duty cycle of PWM? Hello Tahmid, I would like to ask about the configuration when using HCPL3120. I have tried supply the 3120 with isolated source, R2 = 10R, R3 = 1k, and the 2 transistors were skipped, the mosfet I used was IRFP460A, VCC for the mosfet is 24V and the load is 270ohm just for demo.
Unfortunately, the voltage between drain and source pin was not square like the input, it had the straight rise-up and down but had curve like sin wave at the top and not stable. I think that is the result of not sharing the same ground (or I have done something wrong).
Could you help me a little bit? And what happens if the optocoupler ground is not the same ground as the ground of the MOSFET-based circuit?
Hi, Thanks a lot for sharing Tahmid! And very well explained! I'm not an expert on electronics, though I do small things with atmegas and such. I'm willing to build and test this circuit (together with some of your circuits on low-side switching back in your other post), to build a three-phase bridge to control a photocopier's a brushless motor with an atmega (I know I should add diodes in series with the nmos to cancel voltage spikes from the windings). I just wanted to confirm that `BAT1' can be replaced by a 220v-12v transformer + rectifier bridge + smoothing capacitors + lm7812, and wanted also to ask if `BAT1's circuit is actually isolated, as it connects to the load under the nmos (wouldn't it's ground be then connected to the load's ground?).
In my case, I will initially test the circuit with 24V/3A, but would also like to use it in a future with an AC induction motor (220V) I have laying arround (very small, like 3/8 HP, I'd say), so just checking I won't fry anything. Thanks, and I wish you all the best, and that you keep sharing knowledge as your studies/life allows you so. Anonymous hi, im doing a circuit design on proteus. It is a dc-dc converter circuit and it is feedback using PIC16f877A to drive the pwm to the mosfet.
But i really face difficulties in driving the mosfet and i came across to know optocoupler. I think mayb optocoupler might help to drive the mosfet. Since i totally new in optocoupler (i just knew it today), can i send you my circuit and really appreciate for your help in figuring how should i make the mosfet work perfectly for my circuit. Do you want to control both speed and direction? If so, you'll need the full-bridge configuration. Do keep in mind that you can't go to high duty cycles with a bootstrap-based high-side driver.
In that case, it'll be better to use an isolated power supply, or a charge pumped higher voltage power supply to drive it. If all you need is speed control, you can just have the MOSFET work in the low-side configuration with the motor between drain and supply voltage. Remember the anti-parallel diode across the motor. Anonymous Hello Dear Tahmid; I've sent an email to you about my question but you have not still responded it yet:) Anyway,i have questions for you: 1) I have 24V 3 Phase BLDC motor 120W i tried to control it with IR2110 but i did not understand when i applied to 1V to its VDD pin it draws approximately 500mA!!
Most probably it shorted out somewhere in the circuit but did not find:S Also, i need almost full range of pwm for speed control so should i use ir2110 for driving this motor? 2) Or, i have tlp250. Should i use it for driving? I have msp430f series which has output 3.3V and as you said in different subject that at least 4V supply is suitable for IR2110 series to arrange the logic threshold but you did not suggest this way. Therefore, i want to use tlp250 but is it required using external BJT as you used in Fig 3.? 3) When i will use 48V 1.2kW motor this tlp250 method is still applicable? Also, i want to replace high side fets into IGBT?
Thanks in advance Regards. Anonymous Hello Tahmid; 4) Why did not you use diode parallel with 10ohm resistor placed in gate as you used in your IR2110 application? 5) Should i use flyback diode or snubber circuit or diode i don't know exactly what the purpose does it use with my bldc H-bridge circuit? 6) Should i use parallel electrolytic or other type capacitor between high side N-fet drain to Low side N-fet source actually between the power supply vcc to gnd? If yes, should i use it for each column (3 column 1 high 1 low to drive 3 phase)? I want to explain each question briefly im sorry if i exaggerated the explanations:S Thanks in advance. I'm also the owner of the upper questions forgot the ask these:) Best Regards.

Hi, I a Mechanical Engineer, currently working on Regenerative braking with BLDC. Trying to use N channel mosfets as high side switches. Being new to electronics, its really messing my mind haw to make that bootstrapping capacitor circuit. Isnt there any earier option? Like cant I but the bootstrapping circuit completely with capacitor fixed to it, so that I can plug it on before my Power mosfet? Need serious help, and urgently.
Need to take and show readings within 3 days. Any help is highly appreciated. Hi Thamid, I looked at your post and took great help. I understand how this bootstrap circuit works, but i 've some problem in the practical realization, so i hope you can help me by answering these questions.
In particular i'm using L6385e which you said to be your favorite choice: 1) Could I use it to drive single N channel MOS of buck converter which drive rotor and stator (two buck) of dc motor? 2)I read on your other post in a forum but i am not sure to understood that could be problem in this configuration, in particular referring to the fact that the load should be shorted to zero potential to allow capacitor's charging, so there is something i must be aware?
Thank you very much. Anonymous hi Tahmid, my name is Marco Petrolesi from italy, i've problem with a mosfet driver. I am using IR2117 to drive N mosfet (IRF540N) to build my buck converter. At pin2 i have given a square wave 100KHZ from PWM signal generator with 9 volts pk to pk. At pin 7 there is no output.
The converter is powered by 48V power supply on the drain of mosfet, while source is connected at pin 6 of ir2117, at fast recovery diode and inductor, ecc.ecc. Nothing to do! No signal output!
Sometimes only for 1/4 second i can see signal. After, nothing. Can you help me, please! I ask if you can write to my @mail address: [email protected] tankyou Marco Petrolesi. Hi Tahmid, I have been trying for a week to drive a 3 phase ac bridge using six N channel Mosfets (IRF1404) and 3 IR2111 drivers, My high side mosfets gates are connected to 12V, and the drivers Vcc are 12 Volts as well. I am using a pic micronctroller 18F1330 with three pwm outputs with 120 degrees phase angle.
I used a NPN transistor to raise the PWM output to 12 volts as the IR2111 is threshold is above 6.5 volts, however I think the bootstrapping part is the major problem that I am having as I have very little knowledge about bootstrapping. I am using 0.1uF ceramic capacitor for Vcc and gnd, and 0.1uF ceramic between Vb and Vs in parallel with a 1uF (I also tried 10uF), and 1N4007 diode between Vcc and Vb. Farming simulator 2008 download torrent. My PWM switching frequency varies between 50 Hz to 3KHz. I am also connecting 1K resistors between Source and Gate for all mostfets. I am sure of my driver connectivity schematic, but I can't make it work.
Do you have any clue what can be wrong? I realize copying an integrated high-side driver seems like it's the best way to implement this type of circuit, but for many if not most implementations, you can eliminate the bipolar transistors and several resistors. The gate on a MOSFET draws only a tiny amount of current. If you want to prove this, leave the gate of an MOSFET open, put one hand on the GND of your circuit, and the other touch the gate, the MOSFET will turn off, now switch from GND to the positive side, touch the gate, and it will turn on (perhaps slowly if there is any residual capacitance.) So to do this, eliminate Q2, Q3, R4, R5, R6. Now take U1 pin 4 directly to R2. When the input LED to U1 is 'off', the output transistor of U1 is inactive and R3 pulls the gate of Q1 low. Turn on the Optocoupler, and R2 gets pulled high, and the MOSFET is turned on.

While designing the UPS circuits, MOSFET were used in the inverter circuits. The MOSFET were used as High side switches in the circuit. For driving the MOSFET in high side configuration, IR2110 gate driver IC was used. IR2110 is a High –Low side Gate Driver IC which is used with power MOSFET and IGBT.
A Gate Driver is a specially designed circuit that is used to drive the Gate of MOSFET or IGBT in High Side Switching application. That means when MOSFET/IGBT is used in High side configuration then a Gatedriver IC is need to be used. While assembling these circuits, always use a gate to source resistance (Shown as Rgs in the circuit diagram) to avoid any external noise at the gate. This resistance also discharge the parasitic capacitance of the MOSFET. Otherwise, the MOSFET can get damaged as this parasitic capacitor will keep on charging and exceed the limit of the gate to source breakdown voltage. Also, do not exceed the input voltage (drain voltage and gate voltage) of MOSFET greater than its breakdown voltage as it can damage the MOSFET. A low-value resistor (10E to 500E) should be used at the gate of MOSFET.
This will solve the problem of ringing (parasitic oscillations) and voltage spike in the MOSFET. Some manufacturers also provide specially designed ICs (commonly known as gate driver ICs) for driving the high side MOSFET. Depending on the type of IC, the IC can drive only high side or low side or it can drive high as well as low side switching simultaneously. So ICs which can drive both high and low side switching can drive the half bridge circuit, which uses one MOSFET in high side and another one in low side configuration.
So for driving an H-bridge circuit (combination of two half bridge), two gate drive ICs each for driving single half-bridge need to be used. Generally, these ICs work on bootstrap technique for driving the high side MOSFET and for low side MOSFET, these simply use a transistor logic. The IR2110 IC is one of the ICs which can drive the high and low side MOSFET simultaneously.
