Hello all,
I want to drive an H-bridge with HIP4080A. I have looked at the datasheet and Application note but I still have some questions.
1. As I understood from the truth table, I can only switch on diagonal mosfets in the bridge, so I can only have bipolar modulation, however I need to have unipolar modulation so I need to be able to switch on both high side or low side Mosfets. How should I command the driver pins to, for instance, switch high side Mosfets on and low side Mosfets off?
2. I am using Figure 12. in the application note for my design:
https://www.intersil.com/content/dam/intersil/documents/an94/an9404.pdf
How should I design the resistors connected to the gate of each Mosfet and the source of low side Mosfets? Can I just connect them with wires and no resistors?
Regards,
Ata
