# L6384ED

**STMicroelectronics** · Gate Drivers · SOP-8

L6384ED from STMicroelectronics, in a SOP-8. Pinout and pin descriptions extracted from the manufacturer datasheet (extract_pins, cross-checked by a second model); symbol, footprint, and 3D from KiCad-official CAD.

## Pinout

| Pin | Name | Type | Function |
|---|---|---|---|
| 1 | IN | input | Logic input in phase with HVG and in opposition of phase with LVG, compatible to VCC voltage with Vil Max = 1.5 V and Vih Min = 3.6 V. |
| 2 | VCC | power_in | Supply input voltage with internal clamp at typ. 15.6 V; recommended operating range per Table 3 is up to 14.4 V. |
| 3 | DT/SD | input | High impedance deadtime/shutdown control pin; below Vdt (typ. 0.5 V) shuts down device; above Vdt sets deadtime between high-side and low-side drivers with range of 0.4 to 3.1 µs. |
| 4 | GND | power_in | Ground reference. |
| 5 | LVG | output | Low-side driver output; sources 400 mA and sinks 650 mA with maximum 0.3 V drop at 10 mA sink when VCC > 3 V. |
| 6 | VOUT | power_in | High-side driver floating reference (maximum 580 V per Table 3); layout care required to avoid below-ground spikes on this pin. |
| 7 | HVG | output | High-side driver output; sources 400 mA and sinks 650 mA with maximum 0.3 V drop relative to VOUT at 10 mA sink when VCC > 3 V. |
| 8 | VBOOT | power_in | Bootstrap supply voltage for high-side floating driver supply; minimum 17 V per Table 3 with bootstrap capacitor connected between this pin and pin 6 (VOUT). |
