About

MOTIX™ single half-bridge IC family of smart, integrated motor driver ICs support high currents and are designed for use in automotive and industrial applications. A MOTIX™ single half-bridge is a smart low-ohmic, protected half-bridge in a single package. It can be combined with an additional half-bridge to create an H-bridge or 3-phase bridge as well. The MOTIX™ single half-bridge IC family has the capability to switch high frequency PWM while providing overcurrent, overvoltage and overtemperature protection. It offers cost-optimized solutions for protected high-current PWM motor drives with very low board-space consumption scaled to your needs.

Infineon offers low- and high-current single half-bridges designed for use in automotive and industrial applications. It can be combined with additional MOTIX™ single half-bridge ICs to create an H-bridge or 3-phase bridge as well. Interfacing with a microcontroller is made easy by the integrated driver IC which features logic level inputs, diagnosis with current sense, slew rate adjustment, dead time generation and protection against overtemperature, undervoltage, overcurrent and short circuit.

  • Space saving (fully integrated in single small-footprint device: minimized external components).
  • High quality device showing strong reliability after many years of experience and vast number of pieces sold.
  • Thanks to protection and diagnosis features as well as its half-bridge partitioning the MOTIX™ single half-bridge ICs enable highly reliable solutions.
  • MOTIX™ single half-bridge ICs are easy to use and allow direct inputs from the microcontroller and minimizes layout and manufacturing efforts.

The many protection and diagnosis features of the MOTIX™ single half bridge devices make them ideal for security relevant applications like electronic parking brake, active suspension control or fuel pumps. Due to its durability and ease-of-use these devices are also ideal for electronic seatbelt pre-tensioners, T-Case, HVAC control module, and many more.

The ISO 26262-ready marking designates QM products that can – with additional analysis and evaluation support from Infineon – be integrated into a customer’s ISO 26262 compliant, safety-related application, even though they have not been designed or developed according to the ISO 26262 standards. 

Infineon provides a Safety Application Note (SAN) for ISO 26262-ready devices that are designed to aid the customer through the evaluation process. This important document also contains valuable information to support the integration of the component into the customer’s safety-related system. Although it remains the customer’s responsibility to evaluate whether the product details are suitable and sufficient to support the integration within an ISO 26262 compliant system, the information provided in the SAN will significantly reduce the required effort.

myInfineon Collaboration Platform, otherwhise known as myICP, is a portal through which you can access all the documentation related to Infineon’s products. While most documentation is accessible via Infineon’s website, confidential documents requiring Non-Disclosure Agreements (NDAs) from customers can be accessed from myICP.

Access to myICP is granted in three basic steps:

Step 1: Register to myInfineon platform.
