SGM42403
Quad Low-side Driver IC
GENERAL DESCRIPTION
FEATURES
The SGM42403 consists of four identical low-side
drivers with over-current protection. It has integrated
diodes to discharge the inductive load energy such as
unipolar stepper motors, DC motors, relays, solenoids
or other loads when output is turned off.
● Supply Voltage Range: 8.5V to 50V
● Quad Low-side Driver
Four N-Channel MOSFETs
Can be Paralleled for Higher Current Capability
Integrated Diodes for Inductive Energy Discharge
● Continuous Output Current
SOIC-20 Package:
The SGM42403 can provide continuous output current
up to 1.5A (1-channel on) or 800mA/CH (4-channel on)
by the SOIC package at +25℃. And its continuous
output current capability is up to 2A (1-channel on) or
1A/CH (4-channel on) by the TSSOP package at
+25℃.
1.5A (1-Channel On)
800mA/CH (4-Channel On)
TSSOP-16 (Exposed Pad) Package:
2A (1-Channel On)
1A/CH (4-Channel On)
The device has multiple protection functions, including
under-voltage lockout, over-current, short-circuit protection
and thermal shutdown. Over-current and over-
temperature can be reported by the nFAULT pin.
● Full Set of Protections
Integrated Diodes for Inductive Energy Clamp
Thermal Shutdown with Auto-Retry
Overload Protection
Short-Circuit Protection
The SGM42403 is available in Green SOIC-20 and
TSSOP-16 (Exposed Pad) packages.
