BV1HB008EFJ-C High-Side Intelligent Power Device (IPD)

ROHM BV1HB008EFJ-C single-channel 9 mΩ high-side IPDs integrate overcurrent load protection, a dual-temperature shutdown mechanism that limits the internal thermal transients and reduces the mechanical stress of the IC, and a smart active-clamp circuit to dissipate the magnetic energy while switching off inductive loads and to protect internal circuits from overvoltage surges. Embedded current sense and diagnostic features provide real-time load current information and open- or short-circuit feedback in both on and off states. A 3 V and 5 V CMOS-compatible input pin offers direct microcontroller connection without special interfaces or level shifters. These, in conjunction with a wide input voltage range, make the high-side IPD a high-performance component that is suitable for 12 V battery-connected automotive applications.
