Texas Instruments DRV8803 Quad Low-Side Driver ICs

Texas Instruments DRV8803 Quad Low-Side Driver ICs include built-in diodes to clamp turnoff transients generated by inductive loads. These ICs are 4-channel devices with an 8.2V to 60V operating supply voltage range. The DRV8803 driver ICs are controlled through a simple parallel interface. These driver ICs feature overcurrent, short circuit protection, undervoltage lockout, and overtemperature functions. The DRV8803 driver ICs are used in applications such as relay drivers, solenoid drivers, unipolar stepper motor drivers, and general low-side switches.
