Monolithic Power Systems MP6539 and MP6539B Half-Bridge Gate Drivers

BLDC motor driver IC provides comprehensive circuit protection

The MP6539 from Monolithic Power Systems is a gate driver IC for three-phase, brushless dc (BLDC) motors. The device is capable of driving three half-bridges consisting of six N-channel power MOSFETs rated for up to 100V.

 

The MP6539 uses a bootstrap capacitor to generate a supply voltage for the high-side MOSFET driver. An internal charge pump maintains the high-side gate driver if the output is held high for an extended period of time.

 

The MP6539 provides a full set of protection features, including programmable over-current protection for the external MOSFETs, adjustable dead-time control to prevent shoot-through, under-voltage lockout, and thermal shutdown.

 

The MP6539B is similar to the MP6539, except:

  • It does not implement automatic bootstrap charging
  • It does not include over-current protection
  • It is powered only from the VDD Unlike the MP6539, it has no VIN or LDO pins.

The MP6539 and MP6539B are supplied in either a TSSOP-28 package measuring 9.7 mm x 6.4 mm, or a 4 mm x 5 mm QFN-28. Both packages have an exposed thermal pad.

 

Monolithic Power Systems also supplies the MPQ6532, a gate driver IC for three-phase BLDC motors which can drive three half-bridges consisting of six N-channel power MOSFETs at an input voltage of up to 60 V. The AEC-Q100 qualified MPQ6532 is suitable for use in automotive actuators, pumps, and fans.

 

The MPQ6532 implements 120° commutation using three Hall sensor inputs. The PWM, DIR, and nBRAKE pins control the motor speed, direction, and braking.

 

Internal safety features include:

  • Configurable short-circuit protection
  • Over-current protection
  • Adjustable dead-time control
  • Under-voltage lockout protection
  • Thermal shutdown

The device is supplied in a 4 mm x 5 mm QFN-28 package with an exposed thermal pad.

  • Integrated current-sense amplifier
  • 120 V maximum bootstrap voltage
  • Low-power Sleep mode for battery-powered applications
  • Fault indication output

Applications

  • Three-phase BLDC motors
  • Permanent magnet synchronous motors
  • Power drills
  • E-bikes
