EVL-L98GD8

EVL-L98GD8 is an evaluation board designed to evaluate L98GD8, a 48V rated smart power device in advanced BCD technology. L98GD8 is a flexible high-side/low-side configurable pre-driver which is able to drive both NMOS and PMOS. It is possible to configure the device as an independent 8 high-side and low-side pre-driver or as 2 H-Bridge pre-driver or 2 pick and hold pre-driver by using SPI configuration and jumper on the board. All channels are protected against short circuit, over current and over-temperature conditions. The board can be connected to the SPC56M-DIS, the Discovery+ board developed for the SPC563M64L5.

• Voltage min/max: 3.8V to 48V
• 8-ch configurable MOSFET pre-driver: high-side (N-ch and P-chMOS), low-side (N-channel MOS)
• 8-channel configurable MOSFET pre-driver:H-bridge (up to 2 H-bridge), peak & hold (2 loads)
• Device registers setting and the full diagnostic are available through SPI
• Access to all relevant pins by test points
• Input signal connector compatible with the SPC56M-DIS (SPC563M64L5 Discovery+ evaluation board)
• Possibility of connecting a generic microcontroller board by using a simple adapter
