PT2001 Programmable Solenoid Controller (PSC)

NXP Semiconductors PT2001 Programmable Solenoid Controller (PSC) is a SMARTMOS gate driver IC designed for precision automotive solenoid control applications and is intended to relieve the main microcontroller from the intensive task of the actuator control. The NXP PT2001 includes individual charge pump outputs for each high-side predriver and high-voltage DC-to-DC converter predriver. The gate drive, diagnostics, and protection against external faults are managed through four independent and concurrent digital microcores. Each of the two logic channels includes two microcores and their own code RAM and data RAM.
