UCC21550 概要

The Texas Instruments UCC21550 is a reinforced isolated dual-channel gate driver delivering 4A peak-source and 6A peak-sink current to drive power MOSFETs, SiC, GaN, and IGBT transistors. Housed in a 16-pin SOIC (DW) package, it provides 5000Vrms reinforced isolation per UL1577 and operates across a wide -40C to +150C temperature range. The device can be configured as two low-side drivers, two high-side drivers, or a half-bridge driver.

An isolated gate driver is an integrated circuit that supplies the gate charge current needed to switch power transistors while maintaining galvanic isolation between the low-voltage controller and the high-voltage power stage. Within the power management hierarchy (gate driver -> isolated gate driver -> power management IC), isolation is critical for safety, noise immunity, and level-shifting in high-voltage systems such as motor drives and solar inverters.

Key features include the high 4A/6A peak currents that rapidly charge and discharge large gate capacitances, reducing switching losses in SiC and GaN converters. Programmable dead time, set by a resistor on the DT pin, prevents shoot-through in half-bridge topologies. Capacitive silicon-dioxide isolation technology provides high common-mode transient immunity (CMTI), essential when switching fast SiC devices at high dv/dt. Undervoltage lockout (UVLO) on both input and output supplies protects against brownout conditions, and the family offers multiple UVLO and dead-time grade options (A/B/C variants).

Technically, the UCC21550 transfers PWM signals across a capacitive isolation barrier with low propagation delay and tight channel-to-channel matching, according to TI datasheet UCC21550 (46 pages).

Typical applications include switch-mode power supplies, solar string inverters, motor drives, EV onboard chargers, and industrial power conversion. The wide temperature range and reinforced isolation suit automotive and industrial environments (an AEC-Q100 qualified UCC21550x-Q1 family is available).

Design tip: place the driver close to the power transistors to minimize gate-loop parasitic inductance, and size the DT resistor dead time to the switching characteristics of the connected transistors to prevent shoot-through.

主な用途

UCC21550 の用途: 6 件s: Switch-Mode Power Supplies (SMPS), Solar String Inverters, Motor Drives, EV Onboard Chargers, GaN and SiC High-Frequency Converters, Industrial Power Conversion and UPS.

⚡

Switch-Mode Power Supplies (SMPS)

The UCC21550's 4A/6A peak drive currents rapidly charge large gate capacitances in half-bridge and full-bridge SMPS power stages, minimizing switching losses at 100-500kHz. Its programmable dead time via the DT pin precisely sets anti-shoot-through intervals for IGBT or SiC bridges, while 5000Vrms reinforced isolation safely separates the PWM controller from the high-voltage primary. UVLO on both input and output supplies prevents under-driven operation during brownout, protecting power transistors from partial-conduction failures.

💡

Solar String Inverters

In solar string inverters, the UCC21550 drives SiC or IGBT half-bridge stages where 5000Vrms reinforced isolation per UL1577 is mandatory for grid-tied safety. The capacitive isolation barrier's high CMTI tolerates the steep dv/dt of fast SiC switching without corruption, and the -40C to +150C range covers outdoor environmental extremes. The 6A peak sink current firmly holds gates low during miller-clamp-critical turn-off transitions, reducing cross-conduction risk in the bridge.

🏭

Motor Drives

Industrial motor drives use the UCC21550 as a half-bridge gate driver for three-phase inverters. The 4A source current switches IGBTs and SiC MOSFETs efficiently at inverter PWM frequencies, while programmable dead time (DT pin resistor) is tuned per device datasheet turn-off characteristics to eliminate shoot-through. Its two channels with tight matching simplify per-phase bridge design, and the 16-SOIC package allows compact placement adjacent to each power module, minimizing gate-loop inductance and ringing.

🚗

EV Onboard Chargers

For EV onboard chargers, the AEC-Q100 qualified UCC21550x-Q1 family provides the automotive robustness, 5000Vrms reinforced isolation, and 4A/6A drive strength required for PFC and LLC bridge stages. The wide -40C to +150C temperature range suits underhood-adjacent packaging, and UVLO grade options (A/B/C variants) let designers match UVLO thresholds to SiC gate-drive supply architectures, ensuring complete turn-off during supply faults and meeting functional-safety isolation requirements.

🔧

GaN and SiC High-Frequency Converters

Wide-bandgap converters benefit from the UCC21550's combination of high peak current (4A source / 6A sink) and high CMTI capacitive isolation, which tolerates the extreme dv/dt slew rates of GaN FET and SiC MOSFET switching. Fast charge and discharge of low gate-charge devices reduces switching transition times and losses at multi-hundred-kHz frequencies. The programmable dead time supports the very short dead times GaN bridges require, maximizing efficiency and minimizing body-diode conduction losses.

🖥️

Industrial Power Conversion and UPS

UPS systems and industrial DC-DC converters deploy the UCC21550 in isolated bridge stages where 5000Vrms reinforced isolation and reliable UVLO protect against input sags. The dual-channel half-bridge configuration with resistor-programmed dead time simplifies BOM and layout versus discrete driver solutions, and the SOIC-16 package with 300mil creepage supports reinforced-isolation spacing requirements. Designers place the driver close to gate terminals to suppress parasitic ringing during hard-switching events.

What is the best drop-in replacement for UCC21550?
According to TI, the pre-PCN UCC21540 is a pin-compatible drop-in replacement for the UCC21550 with similar specifications. Note that on the pre-PCN UCC21540, TI recommends a DT-pin capacitor greater than 2nF, whereas the post-PCN device differs. The UCC21550x-Q1 automotive variants are also drop-in within the same family.
What is the difference between UCC21550 and UCC21520?
Per TI E2E support, the UCC21550 has the same 4A source and 6A sink peak currents as the UCC21520 - both are the highest-peak-current drivers in TI's dual-channel isolated portfolio. The UCC21550 adds programmable dead time via a DT pin and grade options; the UCC21520 targets applications not needing DT programmability.
Is there an automotive AEC-Q100 version of the UCC21550?
Yes. The UCC21550x-Q1 family is the automotive grade version, qualified to AEC-Q100, with the same 4A/6A peak currents and 5000Vrms reinforced isolation. Variants such as UCC21550AQDWRQ1 are available for EV onboard chargers, traction inverters, and other automotive power conversion systems.
UCC21550 vs UCC21540 - which is better for SiC half-bridge designs?
Both offer 4A/6A drive strength and 16-SOIC packaging. The UCC21550 is the newer post-PCN device with programmable dead time grade options, making it preferable for new SiC half-bridge designs. The UCC21540 (pre-PCN) serves as a drop-in alternative for existing sockets but requires a DT-pin capacitor above 2nF per TI guidance.
How do I set the dead time on the UCC21550?
Dead time is programmed with a single resistor on the DT pin, according to TI datasheet UCC21550. Choose the resistor so the dead time exceeds the transistor turn-off time plus margin to prevent shoot-through. TI E2E guidance notes DT-pin capacitance considerations (>1nF questions addressed on the forum); keep the DT node layout short and quiet.
Is UCC21550 suitable for solar inverter applications?
Yes. The UCC21550's 5000Vrms reinforced isolation, -40C to +150C operating range, and 4A/6A drive strength make it well suited for solar string inverter half-bridge and full-bridge stages driving SiC or IGBT switches. The capacitive isolation barrier's high CMTI withstands the high dv/dt of fast SiC switching.
What are the key specifications of UCC21550 that engineers should know?
Key specifications: dual-channel isolated gate driver, 4A peak source / 6A peak sink current, 5000Vrms reinforced isolation (UL1577), capacitive silicon-dioxide isolation, programmable dead time via DT pin, UVLO on both supplies with A/B/C grade options, -40C to +150C operation, 16-SOIC (DW) package, MOSFET/SiC/GaN/IGBT compatibility, and an AEC-Q100 Q1 automotive family.
Where to download UCC21550 datasheet PDF?

What is the best cross-brand equivalent for UCC21550?
The ZC21550 is a cross-brand Chinese domestic equivalent providing 4A/6A-class dual-channel gate driving with 5000Vrms isolation in SOP16 (300mil) packages per UL1577, per public documentation. However, always verify pinout and parametric equivalence before substituting; the TI UCC21540 remains the safest drop-in within the same ecosystem.
Is UCC21550 the same as UCC21520?
No. They share the same 4A source / 6A sink peak-current ratings per TI, but the UCC21550 includes programmable dead time (DT pin) and multiple UVLO/dead-time grade options (A/B/C variants). Both use SOIC packages in the dual-channel isolated gate driver family, but they are not identical parts and should not be interchanged without design review.
What is the operating temperature range of UCC21550?
The UCC21550 operates from -40C to +150C, per TI product information.

選定ガイド

Choose the UCC21550 when you need a reinforced-isolated (5000Vrms) dual-channel driver with 4A/6A peak current and programmable dead time for half-bridge SiC, GaN, or IGBT stages in SMPS, solar, motor-drive, or EV charger designs. Choose UCC21540 only as a drop-in for existing pre-PCN sockets (watch the >2nF DT-cap requirement). Choose UCC21520 if dead time is managed by your controller and you want the same 4A/6A strength without the DT pin. Choose UCC21550x-Q1 variants for AEC-Q100 automotive programs. Cross-brand, the ZC21550 offers a cost-oriented alternative in SOP16, but verify pinout and CMTI thoroughly before committing. All TI options share the SOIC-16 (DW) footprint, enabling layout reuse across the family.

設計ノート

Place the UCC21550 as close as possible to the power transistor gate terminals to minimize gate-loop parasitic inductance. Long gate traces with 4A/6A peak currents cause gate ringing and potential spurious turn-on. Use short, wide gate traces, kelvin-source connections, and place the gate resistor directly at the transistor gate pin. Route the DT pin trace short and away from gate-drive nodes to avoid dead-time jitter.

Size the DT-pin resistor dead time to exceed the worst-case turn-off time of the connected transistor (including temperature and current variation) to prevent shoot-through in half-bridge operation. If substituting a pre-PCN UCC21540, TI recommends a DT-pin capacitor greater than 2nF - a value difference that changes dead-time behavior and must be re-verified.

Provide adequate bypassing on both VCCI (input side) and VDD (output side) supplies: at least 100nF ceramic plus 10uF bulk close to the pins. UVLO monitors both supplies, but fast 6A sink pulses can cause local droop below UVLO if decoupling is insufficient, causing output glitching. Choose the A/B/C grade variant whose UVLO threshold matches your gate-drive supply architecture (5V UVLO options exist for some variants).

Driver power dissipation is dominated by gate-charge switching loss: P = Qg x VDD x fsw x 2 channels. For large SiC modules at high frequency, verify the SOIC-16 thermal capability and add copper pour on the output-side PCB area. At -40C to +150C ambient extremes, derate switching frequency or drive current accordingly.
