CA3292AQ96

Product Overview

The Intersil CA3292AQ96 is a four-output, low-side, bipolar power switch and driver for relay and solenoid functions. It provides inverting on/off inputs, a 7 V supply, 28 V to 36 V load range, 600 mA output rating, status flag, and fixed current limiting, over-temperature, and over-voltage protection in a surface-mount 28-PLCC package.

Key Features

• Four low-side bipolar outputs with 1:1 input-to-output ratio.
• Inverting on/off interface for relay and solenoid control.
• 7 V supply, 28 V to 36 V load range, and 600 mA output rating.
• Fixed current limiting, over-temperature, and over-voltage protection with status flag.
• Surface-mount 28-PLCC (11.51 x 11.51) package, -40°C to 125°C.

Applications

• Relay driver circuits
• Solenoid driver circuits
• Low-side switching of 28 V to 36 V loads

Design & Procurement Notes

When using the CA3292AQ96, confirm that the system provides a 7 V supply and that loads operate from 28 V to 36 V. The four low-side outputs use inverting on/off inputs, so control logic polarity must be checked. Fixed current limiting, over-temperature, and over-voltage protection should be evaluated against expected fault conditions, and the status flag can support output-state monitoring. The surface-mount 28-PLCC footprint and -40°C to 125°C range also affect PCB layout and thermal design.
