High-Side Driver
Description
The CA3273 is a power IC equivalent of a P-N-P pass transistor operated as a high-side-driver current switch in either
the saturated (ON) or cutoff (OFF) modes. The CA3273
incorporates circuitry to protect the pass currents, excessive
input voltage, and thermal overstress. The high-side driver is
o
C
intended for general purpose, automotive and potentially
high-stress applications. If high-stress conditions exist, the
use of an external zener diode of 35V or less between supply and load terminals may be required to prevent damage
due to severe conditions (such as load dump, reverse battery and positive or negative transients). The CA3273 is
designed to withstand a nominal reverse-battery
(VBAT = 13V) condition without permanent damage to the
IC. The CA3273 is supplied in a modified 3-lead TO-202
plastic power package.

NOTES:
1. The calculation for dissipation and junction temperature rise due to dissipation is: PD=(VCC -VO)x I O+VCCxISW and
TJ=TA+PDx θJA where TJ is device junction temperature, TA is ambient temperature and θJA is the junction-to-ambient
thermal resistance.
2. Thermal limiting occurs at +150oC on the chip.
