This is a smart six-channel low-side switch produced by Texas Instruments (TI). It features short circuit protection, over-temperature protection, and over-voltage protection. The switch can be used in 12V and 24V applications, and is suitable for automotive and industrial systems, such as solenoids, relays, resistive loads, and robotic controls.
The TLE6232 GP is a six‑channel low‑side power switch built with Infineon’s Smart Power Technology. It offers 16‑bit serial data input and diagnostic output via an SPI interface, and all channels can be driven in parallel for PWM applications, making it suitable for engine‑management and power‑train systems.
The device includes built‑in protection functions such as short‑to‑ground, short‑to‑battery, open‑load and over‑temperature detection, as well as under‑voltage reset. It is supplied in a P‑DSO 36‑12 package and is rated for automotive and industrial environments.
| Supply Voltage (Vs) | 45 V – 55 V |
|---|---|
| Output Current per Channel (Ch 1‑4) | 3 A (typical at 125 °C) |
| Output Current per Channel (Ch 5‑6) | 1.5 A (typical at 125 °C) |
| Electrostatic Discharge (Human Body Model) | 2000 V |
| Operating Temperature Range | -40 °C to +150 °C |
