DRV120: Maximum output current (i.e. max. solenoid current)

Henry Zagara

Part Number: DRV120
Other Parts Discussed in Thread: DRV110

What would be the maximum output (solenoid) current for this device. I am anticipating my application will require .250-.300A, for peek, with significantly less for hold.

Thanks!

Hi Hank,

Let me contact the expert for this part. You can expect a response by 10/21/19 (edited from 10/19/19 since it is on a weekend).

Hi Hank,

DRV120 max peak current is 250mA. To get the max current Rpeak=50kohm

For higher peak current, recommended device is DRV110. It is similar to DRV120. The FET is extrenal, allowing a wide range of Ipeak and Ihold
