Description of basic functions.

Developed microcircuit is a high-performance driver of high -potential power field MOS transistor control designed for use in harsh automotive switching applications requiring the capability of handling high voltages on power line attributed to transient commutation of loads in conditions of automobile exploitation.

Load of microcircuit is a device on the base of MOS transistors that enables switching high current levels in automobile electrical system. Microcircuit has Fault indication output when there is short circuit in load or when load transistor current level exceeds preset value.

Features.

• Works with a wide variety of N-channel power field transistors

• Input of control compatible with CMOS logic

• Built in pumping of charge without external components

• Detection and protection from shorted load and current exceeding

• Failure unit reporting a FET overcurrent and shorted load condition

• Possibility to connect induced loads

• Forward overvoltage and battery polarity reverse protection

• Extended range of operating temperatures
