CA3242 Overview
The CA3242 quad-gated inverting power driver contains four gate switches for interfacing low-level logic to inductive and resistive loads such as: relays, solenoids, AC and DC motors, heaters, incandescent displays, and vacuum fluorescent displays. Output overload protection is provided when the load current (approximately 1.2A) causes the output VCE(sat) to rise above 1.3V.
CA3242 Key Features
- Driven Outputs Capable of Switching 600mA Load Currents Without Spurious Changes in Output State
- Inputs patible with TTL or 5V CMOS Logic
- Suitable for Resistive or Inductive Loads
- Output Overload Protection
- Power-Frame Construction for Good Heat Dissipation
