iC-DP

HIGHSIDE SWITCH

Rev C3, Page 2/8

DESCRIPTION

iC-DP is a monolithic highside switch for ohmic, in-

ductive and capacitive loads.

Designed for a wide input voltage range of 4 to 36 V,

it is capable of supplying a minimum output current

of 200 mA. The output acts as a current source with

a low saturation voltage; protection against short-

circuiting is provided by the device shutting down with

excessive temperature. The chip is activated when

the input voltage threshold V(PI)-V(NI) of typically

3.5 V is exceeded.

When used as a 4-pin element, the input (PI, NI)

and output (DP, VP) reference voltages are decou-

pled. The maximum permissive voltage difference

between VP and PI is 36 V.
