DS3656 Datasheet | National Semiconductor

Description The DS3656 is a quad peripheral driver designed for use in automotive applications Logically it is an open collector NAND function with all inputs patible with 74LS and CMOS series products An enable input is provided that is mon to each driver When taken to a logic zero level all outputs will turn off Also overvoltage is detected The DS3656 has features associated with the output structure that make it highly versatile to many applications Each output is capable of 600 m A sink currents and offers 65V standoff voltage in non-inductive applications A clamp network capable of handling 800 m A is incorporated in each output which eliminates the need of an external network to quench the high voltage backswing caused when switching inductive loads up to 30V (reference AN-213) The DS3656 is intended to operate from a 12V automotive battery Internal to the device is its own voltage regulator...
