• CMOS compatible input

• Open drain diagnostic output

• Fast demagnetization of inductive loads

• Undervoltage and overvoltage shutdown with auto-restart and hysteresis

• Overload protection

• Thermal shutdown

• Overvoltage protection including load dump (with external GND-resistor)

• Reverse battery protection (with external GNDresistor)

• Loss of ground and loss of Vbb protection

• Electrostatic discharge (ESD) protection

Application

• µC compatible power switch with diagnostic feedback for 12 V and 24 V DC grounded loads in industrial applications
