Benefits of Bi-Directional CS<br />

More than just cost savings…<br />

Bi-directional current sensing<br />

provides following technical<br />

•No influences in measured current from gate<br />

charge current and reverse recovery charge<br />

current<br />

•Positive Temp/Co in R DS(ON) reduces the trip<br />

level at high junction temperature in real time<br />

Shunt<br />

Resistors<br />

With IRS20124<br />

•Adding a shunt resistor causes<br />

ringing by adding stray inductances.<br />

•The current includes gate<br />

charge/discharge current and<br />

reverse recovery charge current.<br />

•Imbalance of effective R DS(ON) in<br />

high and low sides causes distortion.<br />
