L9826 is a protected octal low-side driver IC designed for the automotive environment. It features 8 channels with 450mA output current capability, typical RDSON of 1.5Ω at TJ = 25 °C, parallel control for output 1 and 2, SPI control on all outputs, reset function, diagnostic through 8 bit SPI, intrinsic output voltage clamping of 50V (Typ) for protection of inductive load drive, short circuit current limitation and thermal shutdown for outputs 1 and 2, and overcurrent and short circuit shutdown for outputs 3 to 8. The L9826 is packaged in SO20.
The L9826 is a protected octal low-side driver IC designed specifically for the automotive environment. It features eight output channels with a 450 mA output current capability and a typical on-resistance of 1.5 Ω. The device includes an 8-bit Serial Peripheral Interface (SPI) for controlling all channels and providing load diagnostics, alongside parallel control inputs for outputs 1 and 2.
| Output current capability | 450 mA |
|---|---|
| Typical RDSON | 1.5 Ω |
| Output voltage clamping | 50 V (Typ) |
| Thermal shutdown threshold | 150 °C |
| Supply voltage range | 4.5 V to 5.5 V |
