UCC27288EVM Gate Driver Evaluation Module (EVM)

Texas Instruments UCC27288EVM Gate Driver Evaluation Module (EVM) is designed for evaluating UCC27288D. The UCC27288D is a 100V half-bridge gate driver with 2.5A peak source current and 3.5A peak sink current capability. This evaluation module serves as a reference design for driving power MOSFETs with up to 20V drive voltage. The evaluation module is developed so that the UCC27288 driver performance can be evaluated and compared to datasheet parameters. It can also be externally connected to power devices with source and sink gate-resistance flexibility provisions. The Texas Instruments UCC27288EVM evaluation board uses surface-mount test points, allowing connection to LI, HI, VDD, and HB inputs. A variety of other test points are available for probing the UCC27288. The input bias is configured so that the VHB-VHS high-side bias can be sourced from VCC, or an external additional bias can be added to provide VHB-VHS directly. The high- and low-side driver output returns are separated on HS and GND, respectively, to allow evaluation of the UCC27288 HS negative voltage capabilities.
