This document introduces a product called BTS 716G, which is a smart high-side power switch. It has four channels with status feedback, an operating voltage range of 5.5V to 40V, low standby current, and fast demagnetization function. The product is suitable for microcontroller-compatible high-side power switches and applications with 12V and 24V grounded loads.
The BTS 716G is a smart high‑side power switch built in Infineon's SIPMOS technology. It provides four independent channels, each with low on‑state resistance and built‑in protection functions such as short‑circuit, overload, over‑voltage, reverse‑battery and ESD protection. The device is CMOS‑compatible, offers diagnostic open‑drain feedback and can replace electromechanical relays for resistive, inductive or capacitive loads.
Typical applications include microcontroller‑driven power distribution for 12 V and 24 V systems, especially where high inrush currents occur (e.g., lamps). The datasheet lists electrical characteristics, thermal limits, pin definitions, and package dimensions for PCB integration.
