LM5163H-Q1: Gate drive voltage

Part Number: LM5163H-Q1

Tool/software:

What is the gate drive voltage assuming 28V input power?

i.e. what is BST voltage and VCC voltage?

Figure 7.2 shows a bias regulator with VDD output but the low side gate driver is powered by VCC. Where does VCC come from?

  • Hi David,

    Both VCC and VDD are same and it is generated from bias regulator which is connected to VIN input voltage. There is naming convention mistake in datasheet. I will ask internal team to correct this. 

    For 28V input voltage, the BST-SW node voltage would ~VCC i.e 5V.

    Thanks,

    Nitya
