Renesas Electronics Demonstration Board Half-Bridge Driver HIP2103-4DEMO2Z

Renesas Electronics HIP2103-4DEMO2Z Demonstration Board Half-Bridge Driver is a specialized Development Board integrating HIP2103 and HIP2104 half bridge drivers that control six high current MOSFETs arranged as a 3-phase bridge. The board operates with a MOSFET bridge supply voltage from 5 V to 40 V DC and is designed for applications requiring versatile motor control.

This demonstration board supports full or half bridge configurations for brushed DC motors and three-phase brushless DC (BLDC) motor applications. It provides two independent inputs per phase to separately control the high side and low side drivers, enabling precise motor control strategies. The included PIC microcontroller facilitates onboard control of the half bridge drivers.

The board features 3.3 V and 12 V low dropout (LDO) voltage regulators, each with dedicated enable pins, enhancing power management and control flexibility. Sleep mode is optimized with a quiescent current of only 5 microamperes, contributing to energy-efficient operation.

Additional protections include under voltage-lockout (UVLO) set at 4 V, preventing operation at insufficient supply voltages, and 3.3 V or 5 V CMOS compatible inputs with built-in hysteresis for noise immunity. The high current MOSFETs feature integrated bootstrap diodes for effective gate drive.

Mechanical design accommodates large diameter holes for facile wiring connections to the motor and power sources. The 12-pin through-hole header enables signal connections to external controllers, facilitating integration into development systems. An optional heatsink can be mounted on the PCB backside to ensure efficient thermal dissipation during high power operation.

This board is ideal for industrial, robotics, automotive, and STEM education applications where reliable and flexible motor driver development platforms are required. It enables designers and engineers to prototype and test half-bridge motor control implementations efficiently.
