negative voltage swing at the PHASE node. Typically, such
large negative excursions occur in high current applications
that use D

proper bootstrap capacitor size:

As an example, suppose two HAT2168 FETs are chosen as

will assume a 100mV droop in drive voltage over the PWM
cycle. We find that a bootstrap capacitance of at least
0.264μF is required. The next larger standard value
capacitance is 0.33µF. A good quality ceramic capacitor is
recommended.
Power Dissipation
Package power dissipation is mainly a function of the
switching frequency (F
external gate resistance, and the selected MOSFET’s
internal gate resistance and total gate charge. Calculating
the power dissipation in the driver for a desired application is
critical to ensure safe operation. Exceeding the maximum
allowable power dissipation level will push the IC beyond the
maximum recommended operating junction temperature of
+125°C. The maximum allowable IC power dissipation for

the SO14 package is approximately 1W at room
temperature, while the power dissipation capacity in the
QFN packages, with an exposed heat escape pad, is around
2W. See Layout Considerations paragraph for thermal
transfer improvement suggestions. When designing the
driver into an application, it is recommended that the
following calculation is used to ensure safe operation at the
desired frequency for the selected MOSFETs. The total gate
drive power losses due to the gate charge of MOSFETs and
the driver’s internal circuitry and their corresponding average
driver current can be estimated with Equations 2 and 3,
respectively,

The total gate drive power losses are dissipated among the
resistive components along the transition path. The drive
resistance dissipates a portion of the total gate drive power
losses, the rest will be dissipated by the external gate
resistors (R
interfering with the operation shoot-through protection
circuitry) and the internal gate resistors (R
MOSFETs. Figures 3 and 4 show the typical upper and lower
gate drives turn-on transition path. The power dissipation on
the driver can be roughly estimated as:
