A6800 Series: Allegro MicroSystems, Inc. Releases New Latched Sink Drivers
LAST TIME BUY. This part is in production but has been determined to be LAST TIME BUY. This classification indicates that the product is obsolete and notice has been given. Sale of this device is currently restricted to existing customer applications. The device should not be purchased for new design applications because of obsolescence in the near future. Samples are no longer available.
Date of status change: May 3, 2010.
Deadline for receipt of LAST TIME BUY orders: October 29, 2010.
For existing customer transition, and for new customers or new applications, refer to your Allegro sales representative.
The A6800 and A6801 latched-input BiMOS ICs merge high-current, high-voltage outputs with CMOS logic. The CMOS input section consists of 4 or 8 data (D type) latches with associated common CLEAR, STROBE, and OUTPUT ENABLE circuitry. The power outputs are bipolar NPN Darlingtons. This merged technology provides versatile, flexible interface. These BiMOS power interface ICs greatly benefit the simplification of computer or microprocessor I/O. The A6800 ICs each contain four latched drivers. A6801 ICs contain eight latched drivers.
The CMOS inputs are compatible with standard CMOS circuits. TTL circuits may mandate the addition of input pull-up resistors. The bipolar Darlington outputs are suitable for directly driving many peripheral/power loads: relays, lamps, solenoids, small DC motors, and so forth.
All devices have open-collector outputs and integral diodes for inductive load transient suppression. The output transistors are capable of sinking 600 mA and can withstand at least 50 V in the off state. Because of limitations on package power dissipation, the simultaneous operation of all drivers at maximum rated current can only be accomplished by a reduction in duty cycle. Outputs may be paralleled for higher load current capability.
The A6800SL is furnished in a surface-mountable SOIC; the A6801SEP in a 28-lead PLCC. These devices are lead (Pb) free, with 100% matte tin plated leadframes.
