LMG2100R044: Can it achieve 100% duty cycle with isolated power supply?

Part Number: LMG2100R044


Hello,

Can I achieve 100% duty cycle if I use isolated power supply and connect it between HS and HB?

[of course I also connect the VCC to other power supply] 

If yes:

  • The isolated power supply voltage should be 5V? 
  • Do I need to add diode between the isolated power supply and pin HB to avoid current from the internal bootstrap mechanism to the power supply?

Thanks,

Ariel

  • Hi Ariel,

    Yes, we can achieve 100% duty cycle if using isolated power supply and connect it between HS and HB.

    • The isolated power supply voltage connected between HB to HS should be between 4V to 5.25V in normal operating conditions.
    • There is no need to connect diode between the isolated power supply and pin HB as there is already internal bootstrap diode.

    Thanks & Regards,
