About this manual

The L6569 (and L6569A) is a high‑voltage half‑bridge driver that integrates an internal oscillator and a patented bootstrap structure, allowing operation up to 600 V rail and delivering up to 270 mA source and 275 mA sink currents. It features low start‑up current, programmable dead‑time, and strong dV/dt immunity.

The document contains absolute maximum ratings, recommended operating conditions, detailed pin descriptions, electrical characteristics, bootstrap operation, a demo board schematic for lamp‑ballast applications, mechanical dimensions, and safety/disclaimer information. It also includes typical performance graphs such as dead‑time versus temperature and oscillator frequency versus resistor value.
