MAX4824PMB1 Peripheral Module
General Description
The MAX4824PMB1 peripheral module provides the nec-
essary hardware to interface the MAX4824 8-channel relay
driver to any system that utilizes Pmod^TM-compatible
expansion ports configurable for GPIO communication.
Each independent channel in the IC features a 2.7I
(typ) on-resistance and is guaranteed to sink 70mA
(min) of load current. A zener kickback-protection circuit
significantly reduces recovery time in applications where
switching speed is critical. When driving relays, a unique
power-save mode allows relay current to be reduced
to a level just above the relay hold-current threshold.
This mode keeps the relay activated while significantly
reducing the power consumption.
Refer to the MAX4824 IC data sheet for detailed informa-
tion regarding operation of the IC.
