ATA6836C Hex Half-bridge Driver with Serial Input Control DATASHEET Features Six half-bridge outputs formed by six high-side and six low-side drivers Capable of switching all kinds of loads (such as DC motors, bulbs, resistors, capacitors and inductors) R typically 1.0 at 25C, maximum 1.8 at 150C DSon Up to 650-mA output current Very low quiescent current I < 2A in standby mode VS Outputs short-circuit protected Overtemperature prewarning and protection Undervoltage protection Various diagnosis functions such as shorted output, open load, overtemperature and power supply fail Serial data interface Operation voltage up to 40V Daisy chaining possible Serial interface 5V compatible, up to 2MHz clock frequency SO28 or QFN24 power package 4952O-AUTO-02/151. Description The Atmel ATA6836C is a fully protected hex half-bridge driver designed in Smart Power SOI technology, used to control up to six different loads by a microcontroller in automotive and industrial applications. Each of the six high-side and six low-side drivers is capable of driving currents up to 650mA. The drivers are internally connected to form six half-bridges and can be controlled separately from a standard serial data interface. Therefore, all kinds of loads, such as bulbs, resistors, capacitors and inductors, can be combined. The IC especially supports the application of H-bridges to drive DC motors. Protection is guaranteed in terms of short-circuit conditions, overtemperature and undervoltage. Various diagnosis functions and a very low quiescent current in standby mode make a wide range of applications possible. Automotive qualification referring to conducted interferences, EMC protection and ESD protection gives added value and enhanced quality for the exacting requirements of automotive applications.
