IPS4140HQ: robust and versatile quad high-side switch
IPS4140HQ: robust and versatile quad high-side switch
These compact quad-channel high-side switches are ideal for harsh industrial applications to drive different loads. The output stage features a very low 80mΩ RDS(on) and current limits per channel: 0.7A (IPS4140HQ) or 1.0A (IPS4140HQ-1). The reduced package size targets slim digital output (DO) modules in PLC systems or compact DO solutions. The ICs are fully protected with four diagnostics pins indicating overtemperature conditions per channel.
