The active Miller-clamp function is used to prevent false turn on of the power switches caused by Miller current in applications where a unipolar power supply is used. The active Miller-clamp function is implemented by adding a low impedance path between the power-switch gate terminal and ground (V_EE) to sink the Miller current. The Miller clamping function is implemented by adding a low impedance path between the gate of the power device and the V_EE supply. Miller current sinks through the clamp pin, which clamps the gate voltage to be lower than the gate turn-on threshold value for the power device. The clamp engages whenever the voltage at the CLAMP pin goes below V_CLMPTH.
