Hello,
we have two inputs EN and PWM for switching. When we applied EN =5V and PWM signal (pulse width = 10us duty cycle = %1 duty cycle), switching works correctly. But If EN = 0V, we measure 4.5V at HS node. İs this normal?

Hey Ümit,
Thank you for your question regarding the LMG1210.
When EN = 0V, the LO and HO outputs are set to low (0V). The voltage on HS is dependent on many factors including the output stage of your circuitry. So, the 4.5V that you are seeing is due to the impedance of HS to ground. This impedance is the parallel combination of its paths to ground which include the high-side FET through VIN, through the low-side FET, through the IC to VSS and also through the output stage of your load. So, the condition of 4.5V on HS without gate driver outputs is very possible and normal.
Let me know if there are any further questions.
Thank you,
William Moore
