AbstractMost PC board mounted relays are driven by
microprocessors or other sensitive electronic devices. A
successful coil drive circuit requires isolation between the
relay and the microprocessor circuitry. Effective drive
circuits must account for drive current and voltage
requirements as well as effective suppression of L di/dt
transients which can destroy microprocessor circuits. While
it is easy to over−design an effective drive circuit, today’s
designs must be cost competitive. Integrating a monolithic
IC driver device into the relay will provide significant value
to the system designer.
This paper describes the operation of
ON Semiconductor’s integrated relay driver products to
interface sensitive electronic devices with mechanical
relays to accomplish different control/power functions.
Important benefits such as PC board space savings and
components count reduction are also explained.
IntroductionAlthough the advances in the electronics industry are
increasing day by day, mechanical relays are still
extensively used in industrial and automotive applications to
control high current loads. Their low cost and excellent fault
tolerance make relays to be an useful and reliable solution
in industrial and automotive applications environments. The
integrated relay driver devices NUD3105, NUD3112 and
NUD3124 offered by ON Semiconductor are considered to
be the ideal device solution to control mechanical relays
used in industrial and automotive applications. Their
integrated design allows significant simplification and cost
reductions when replacing traditional discrete solutions
such as bipolar transistors plus free−wheeling diodes.
Industrial and Automotive Application RequirementsThe device requirements for industrial and automotive
applications are different and must be addressed in different
manner. While the requirements for automotive applications
are the most difficult to comply with, industrial
requirements traditionally allow more latitudes. Relay coil
currents vary considerably depending on the applications.
The largest class of industrial and automotive relays have
coils with current consumption between 50 and 150 mA.
Selection of a suitable relay driver requires many
constraints to be evaluated. For automotive applications, it
is necessary to put special attention in the following
requirements: Load dump (80 V, 300 msec) Dual voltage jump start (24 V or more) Reverse battery (−14 V , 1minute or more) ESD immunity (according AEC−Q100 specification) Operating ambient temperature (−40°C to 85°C)
Meeting these automotive requirements usually results in
specifying an oversized and non−cost effective relay driver,
or one requiring many protection components.
Industrial applications on the other hand do not have many
requirements different than the standard ones such as ESD
immunity (usually 2.0 kV HBM), and a given range of
operating ambient temperature (usually between 0°C to
85°C). However, some applications also call for protection
devices against transient voltage conditions, which creates
the need for extra protection components too.
