DESCRIPTION

The TDE1798 is an interface circuit delivering

high currents and capable of driving any type of

loads.

The output is protected from short-circuits with

the positive supply or ground. In addition thermal

shut down is provided to keep the IC from over-

heating. If internal dissipation becomes too high,

the driver will shut down to prevent excessive

heating. The output stays null after the overload is

off, if the reset input is low. If high, the output will

alternatively switch on and off until the overload is

removed.

Higher current can be obtained by paralleling the

outputs of several devices. In this case, the de-

vices can be reactivated simultaneously after an

overload if their reset input are connected in par-

allel.

The device operates over a wide range of supply

voltages from standard

±15 operational amplifier

supplies to the single

±6V or +35V used for indus-

trial electronic systems. Input voltage can be

ground conditions.
