UCC28780: IPWML(H) of PWML,PWMH

Yi Dou

Part Number: UCC28780

Hi E2E,

1. Would like to learn why at high/low level of below pins, the load current is negative/positive? Typical high means source, positive, and low means sink, negative.

What's more, I think the name is missed for current definition, we should have IPWML(H), IPWMH(H), the "(H)" should mean reference direction of source/sink current, I guess.

2. The maximum source/sink current is ~1mA, right？Could I use 0.5V/1mA=50Ohm to estimate the pull-up and pull-down resistance inside PWM output stage?

3. The test condition for Trise/Tfall is with 10pF Cload, if no load connected to PWM, what is the rise/fall time? Will it differ much?

Let me know if you have any comments. thanks!

Hi Yi Dou,

Thanks for your interesting in TI's part and sorry for the later reply.

Actually , almost all of your questions are related to controller internal circuit design parameters . it should can be answered by designers , but Application engineer are responsible for the E2E reply . So may I ask what is the issue or problem you are facing when you use this part ?

Although TI recommended specific isolator/driver IC connected to PWM, I still would like to fully evaluate the PWM I/O feature of ucc28780.

Because you know for different FETs in the market, gate-source or PWM input features are totally different among different vendors. That's why making it clear of I/O feature is so important for identifying delay time of PWM transition, for converter modeling up to MHz.

Hi Yi Dou,

Totally agree with you delay time of PWM transition is important for high switching frequency converter. based our experience , the turn on delay of isolator / gate driver is more sensitive than UCC28780 I/O rise/down tolerance . since the better gate driver delay in the market is ~25ns while common delay is ~100ns . So choose small delay isolator/gate driver in your high frequency design.

Thanks.
