DISCUSSION OF HARDWARE 4N25 OPTICAL ISOLATORS • PROTECTION PURPOSE • VOLTAGE DRIVE FOR IR2213
DISCUSSION OF HARDWARE IR 2213 HIGH LOW DRIVER • Drive for H-bridge transistors
IR2213 Combined with H-bridge Each IR2213 drives the high and low side of H-Bridge
H-Bridge and Motor Direction Forward direction of motor H – Bridge driven by IR2213
H-Bridge and Motor Direction H – Bridge driven by IR2213 Reverse direction of motor
IR2213 Bootstrap Circuit Cbs = 10uF Cdc = .1uF
IR2213 Inputs Vdd = 18v Vss = ground H(in) = L(in) = 0 to 18v Vcc= 18v SD(shutdown)=ground Vs to load COM = ground
IR2213 Outputs LO = 0 to 18v HO = 0 to 18v above H-bridge supply
