Providing interface between low-level logic and power loads to
100 W, the UDx2543B and UDx2543EB quad power drivers combine
AND logic gates and high-current bipolar outputs. Each of the four
independent outputs can sink up to 700 mA in the ON state. The
outputs have a minimum breakdown voltage (load dump) of 60 V and
a sustaining voltage of 35 V. The inputs are compatible with most
TTL, DTL, LSTTL, and 5 V CMOS and PMOS logic systems.
Over-current protection has been designed into each channel of
the UDx2543B/EB and typically occurs at 1 A. It protects any one
channel from output short circuits with supply voltages up to 25 V.
When the maximum output current is reached, that output stage is
driven linearly. If the over-current condition continues, that output’s
thermal limiting will operate, limiting that output’s power dissipation to
approximately 2.4 W. The outputs also include diodes for voltage
clamping with inductive loads such as relays, solenoids, or dc stepper
motors.

These devices are supplied in a 16-pin power DIP of batwing
construction (suffix ‘B’) to provide for maximum package power dissipation. They are also available in a 28-lead PLCC (suffix ‘EB’) for
surface-mount applications. All devices are rated for continuous
operation over the temperature range of -20°C to +85°C (UDN2543B/
EB) or for use in automotive applications over an extended temperature range as the UDQ2543B/EB.

Negative current is defined as coming out of (sourcing) the specified terminal.
As used here, -100 is defined as greater than +10 (absolute magnitude convention) and the minimum is implicitly zero.
* Pulse test, allowable package power dissipation will be exceeded at increased ambient temperatures.
† All inputs simultaneously, all other tests are performed with each input tested separately.

CIRCUIT DESCRIPTION AND APPLICATION
INCANDESCENT LAMP DRIVER
For incandescent lamp applications, the UDx2549B/EB or
UDx2559B/EB, with improved shortcircuit protection and thermal
limiting, are recommended.
INDUCTIVE LOAD DRIVER
Bifilar (unipolar) stepper motors, relays, or solenoids can be driven
directly. The internal flyback diodes prevent damage to the output
transistors by suppressing the high-voltage spikes that occur when
turning OFF an inductive load. For rapid current decay (fast turn-OFF
speeds), the use of Zener diodes will raise the flyback voltage and
improve performance. However, the peak voltage must not exceed the
specified minimum sustaining voltage (V
FAULT CONDITIONS
In the event of a shorted load, the load current will attempt to
increase. As described above, the drive current to the affected
output stage is diverted, causing the output stage to go linear, limiting
the peak output current to approximately 1 A. As the power dissipation
of that output stage increases, a thermal gradient sensing circuit will
become operational, further decreasing the drive current to the affected output stage and reducing the output current to a value dependent on supply voltage (I

).
Due to the independent operation of the four channels, only
a single channel should be shorted at a time. Multiple overload
conditions may be tolerated provided rated package power
