About

Which brushed DC motor drivers are available

Infineon’s brushed (BDC) motor driver IC portfolio provides a wide range of high-performance solutions, scalable for various automotive applications depending on the required output current and preferred integration level:

  • MOTIX™ Driver: Advanced multi MOSFET gate driver ICs to drive up to 16 external MOSFETs with the state of the art protection features.
  • MOTIX™ Bridge: Single and multi half-bridge ICs and full-bridge ICs integrating driver stage and MOSFETs into one package with excellent diagnosis and protection features.
  • MOTIX™ SBC: Motor system ICs (SBC) with integrated bridge driver, power supply and communication interfaces, e.g. LIN and CAN FD transceivers. 
  • MOTIX™ MCU (SoC): With MOTIX™ 32-bit motor control SoC Infineon offers in a addition a system-on-chip (SoC) solution based on Arm® Cortex®-M.

This extensive offering of intelligent motor control ICs is complemented by microcontrollers, sensors, transceivers, voltage regulators and MOSFETs to simplify the design of end-to-end system solutions.

Highlights and features of MOTIX™ motor control ICs


Infineon offers the most comprehensive portfolio of motor control ICs and different levels of function integration of its hardware. 

  • MOTIX™ TLE9210x gate driver ICs are designed to control up to eight half-bridges (up to 16 n-channel MOSFETs). This low-integrated solution with discrete components gives you the flexibility of selecting the optimal device for each function. 
  • MOTIX™ single and multi half-bridge ICs combine gate-drivers with the MOSFET power stage in a single package. A small foot print on the PCB, diagnostic feedback and protection add to the benefits of higher integration. 
  • MOTIX™ BTM90xx full-bridge ICs provide a broad range of protection and diagnosis features. The TSDSO-14 package with exposed pad ensures optimized thermal performance.
  • Infineon’s MOTIX™ motor system IC (SBC) is the world first IC to combine DC motor control with supply functionalities such as power supply, CAN FD & LIN. 
  • With MOTIX™ motor control SoCs system-on-chip solutions based on Arm® Cortex®-M are available.

For industrial usage Infineon adds to the automotive qualified DC motor control solutions industrial half- and full-bridges (IFX007 and IFX9201).

What types of BDC motor drivers are tailored for automotive applications?

Not only the increasing number of in-cabin comfort functionalities requires smart low-voltage motor control but also the increased number of safety features drives the electrical motor market forward. Infineon’s MOTIX™ products for brushed DC motor control offer high performance at an optimized system cost for various automotive applications.

Product and application examples:  

  • MOTIX™ gate driver ICs for example provides ideal solutions for power seat modules or power closure systems. 
  • MOTIX™ multi half-bridge ICs are designed for applications such as for heating, ventilations and air-conditioning (HVAC), as well as mirror adjustment and fold. 
  • MOTIX™ TLE9166EQ is a powerful, versatile, and adaptable solution for door control modules and zone controllers.
  • Typical applications of the MOTIX™ BTM90xx full-bridge ICs are door/safe lock, fuel/e-charging lid, mirror fold, door cinching latch, trunk cinching latch and body control modules. 
  • MOTIX™ motor system ICs (SBC) provide the ideal features for seat control and sunroof modules as well as power lift gate and seatbelt pretensioners.
  • Application examples for MOTIX™ motor control SoCs are sunroofs, window lifts or HVAC blowers.  
Automotive applications
Infineon's patented adaptive MOSFET control concept

Infineon’s patented adaptive MOSFET control concept is reducing cost and eliminating efforts of end-of-line MOSFET calibration by an internal feedback loop between Infineon’s Driver IC and the MOSFETs. 

The multi-stage slew rate control enables EMC tuning via SPI, including adjusting slew rate with independence from dead-time and turn on/off delays. The on-board measurement and self-adaption of external MOSFET switching times allows balancing of power dissipation vs. EMC performance, adjusts for MOSFET lot-to-lot variations, and makes the MOTIX™ TLE9210x a perfect choice for many different applications.

Several MOTIX™ products for brushed DC motor control are using the concept of adaptive MOSFET control: TLE9210x multi MOSFET gate driver ICs, TLE956x motor system ICs (SBC), and TLE985x and TLE988x 32-bit motor control (SoC) families.
