Other Parts Discussed in Thread: UCC21710, UCC21750
Hello,
I'm using the UCC21710 as a gate driver. I read in its datasheet the following statement on page 29, chapter 8.3.7:
"The overcurrent and short circuit protection feature can also be paired with desaturation circuit and shunt
resistors."
Does it mean that I can connect to the pin OC both the desat circuit and the shunt voltage at the same time and the system works as wired OR, so the first protection circuit that detects the 0.7V threshold activates the current protection?
I also looked at the EVM UCC21732QDWEVM-025 where both methods are implemented, but it is explicitly stated that they can be used in an exclusive way.
Which one is the truth?
Thank you.
