Abstract

A half bridge gate driving circuit for providing gate driving circuits in a bi-hecto celcius (200 degrees celcius) operating environment having multiple functions including combinations of multiple level logic inputs, noise immunity, fault protection, overlap protection, pulse modulation, high-frequency modulation with transformer based isolation, high-frequency demodulation back to pulse width modulation, deadtime generator, level shifter for high side transistor, overcurrent protection, and undervoltage lockout.
