DS3686 Dual Positive Voltage Relay Driver
General Description
The DS3686 is a high voltage current positive voltage relay
driver having many features not available in present relay
drivers
PNP inputs provide both TTL LS compatibility and high in-
put impedance for low input loading
Output leakage is specified over temperature at an output
voltage of 54V Minimum output breakdown (ac latch break-
down) is specified over temperature at 5 mA This clearly
defines the actual breakdown of the device since the circuit
has incorporated in it an internal reference which does not
allow output breakdown latching found in existing relay driv-
ers Additionally this internal reference circuit feature will
eliminate the need in most cases of an external clamping
(inductive transient voltage protection) diode When the out-
put is turned ‘‘OFF’’ by input logic conditions the resulting
inductive voltage transient seen at the output is detected by
an internal zener reference The reference then momentari-
ly activates the output transistor long enough so that the
relay energy is discharged This feature eliminates the need
of external circuit protection components and insures output
transistor protection
The outputs are Darlington connected transistors which al-
low high current operation at low internal VCC current

levels base drive for the output transistor is obtained from
the load in proportion to the required loading conditions
Typical VCC power with both outputs ‘‘ON’’ is 90 mW
The circuit also features output transistor protection if the
VCC supply is lost by forcing the output into the high imped-
ance ‘‘OFF’’ state with the same breakdown levels as when
VCC was applied
