General Description

N channel vertical power FET with charge pump, current controlled input and diagnostic feedback with load current sense, integrated in Smart SIPMOS chip on chip technology. Fully protected by embedded protection functions.

Features

• Overload protection

• Current limitation

• Short circuit protection

• Overtemperature protection

• Overvoltage protection (including load dump)

• Clamp of negative voltage at output

• Fast deenergizing of inductive loads 1)

• Low ohmic inverse current operation

• Reverse battery protection

• Diagnostic feedback with load current sense

• Open load detection via current sense

• Loss of Vbb protection2)

• Electrostatic discharge (ESD) protection

Application

• Power switch with current sense diagnostic feedback for up to 48V DC grounded loads

• Most suitable for loads with high inrush current like lamps and motors; all types of resistive and inductive loads

• Replaces electromechanical relays, fuses and discrete circuits
