In the DRV8300-Q1, high-side and low-side inputs operate independently, with an exception to prevent cross conduction when high and low side are turned ON at same time. The DRV8300-Q1 turns OFF high-side and low-side output to prevent shoot through when the both high-side and low-side inputs are at logic HIGH at same time.

Fixed deadtime of 215 ns (typical value) is inserted to prevent high and low side gate output turning ON at same time.
