The TB9083FTG from Toshiba is an Automotive-Qualified Three-Phase Gate Driver IC that is designed specifically for brushless motors in in-vehicle applications. It requires an input voltage of 4.5 - 28 V. This ASIL-D certified gate driver features an additional fail-safe relay pre-driver to reduce operational malfunctions. It consists of a charge pump, a motor current detector circuit, oscillator circuits, and an SPI communication interface. This AEC-Q100/Q006-qualified gate driver has multiple protection features such as under-voltage, over-voltage, over-temperature, and external MOSFET voltage detector. It is also equipped with ABIST/LBIST diagnostics for testing and detecting possible errors. This RoHS-compliant gate driver IC is available in a surface-mount package that measures 7 x 7 mm and is ideal for EPS, powered brakes and pump applications.
