UCC27511A: Can I use UCC27511A for high-side driver?

Hey Albert,

Thank you for reaching out regarding your questions about the UCC27511A. There are a few options for a high-side driver.

The UCC27511A is a low-side driver, so provisions would need to be made to use it on the high side. This is highlighted in the following FAQ:

[FAQ] Can I use a Low Side driver as a High Side driver?

The Infineon part is listed as a high-side and low-side driver, so it can be used in either setup it appears. Another option here would be to use a single channel isolated driver such as the UCC23525.

Another option would be to use a half-bridge driver such as the UCC27301A. If only a high-side is needed, then this can be used as a high-side driver with the provisions discussed in the following FAQ:

[FAQ] How to bias the high side of a half-bridge gate driver and why

Let me know if there are any questions.

Thank you,

William Moore
