IR2130JPbF datasheet by International Rectifier

IR2130JPbF Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)

• What is the maximum operating frequency of the IR2130JPBF?
  The maximum operating frequency of the IR2130JPBF is 500 kHz, but it can be operated up to 1 MHz with reduced performance.
• How do I ensure proper thermal management of the IR2130JPBF?
  Proper thermal management can be achieved by providing a heat sink with a thermal resistance of less than 1°C/W, and ensuring good airflow around the device. The PCB layout should also be designed to minimize thermal impedance.
• What is the recommended dead-time setting for the IR2130JPBF?
  The recommended dead-time setting for the IR2130JPBF is between 100 ns to 500 ns, depending on the specific application and switching frequency. A longer dead-time can reduce EMI, but may also reduce efficiency.
• Can the IR2130JPBF be used in a half-bridge configuration?
  Yes, the IR2130JPBF can be used in a half-bridge configuration, but it requires an external bootstrap diode and capacitor to ensure proper operation.
• How do I protect the IR2130JPBF from overvoltage and undervoltage conditions?
  The IR2130JPBF has built-in overvoltage protection (OVP) and undervoltage protection (UVP) features. However, additional external protection circuits may be required depending on the specific application and voltage levels.
