TPL7407LA-Q1: Part recommendation

Part Number: TPL7407LA-Q1
Other Parts Discussed in Thread: ULN2003A

Hi, 


I would like to ensure this is best choice for an application:

For the upcoming design considering using the TPL7407LA-Q1. Is this part a good option for new designs or are there any other parts similar that have been recently designed and would be more available?

 Application:

Low side switch for 12V-24V relay coils

EMF protection is nice

<150mA per relay coil

4-8 channels.

I know this IC does not have diagnostics, but that could be an option too.

 Please advise.

Thanks,

HSG  

  • Hello HSG,

    Our LSS options (such as ULN2003A) offer very limited integrated protection features and no diagnostics. TPL7407LA-Q1 is a good option. If diagnostics are needed it's recommended to couple with a high side switch.
