The TPIC6B259DW is a Logic - Latches IC, an integral part of the industry-first Tri-State family of devices. Each latch includes an input AND gate, an enable/disable latch circuit, and complementary outputs. Each latch features two inputs, one enable/disable input, and two outputs, which can be used to create reliable logic functions. All inputs, outputs, and enable logic are compatible with standard logic levels. The 6B259DW has advanced ESD (electro-static discharge) protection that exceeds the high-reliability requirements of electro-mechanical systems.
Application Field
The TPIC6B259DW is ideal for applications such as data processing systems, networking components, mobile phones, PDAs, automotive systems, consumer electronics, home and industrial automation systems, audio-visual equipment, and medical equipment. It is also well-suited for automotive and industrial motor control, in addition to interfacing with external logic circuits.
Working Principle
The TPIC6B259DW is based on the standard Tri-State latch architecture. It switches between two states, either “enable”, meaning that the device is active, or “disable”, indicating that the device is inactive. The device has two latches per IC, meaning that it can control up to four outputs simultaneously. In order for the device to switch from one state to the other, it needs to be triggered by a signal from the enable/disable inputs. This signal allows the device to turn on or off, resulting in the outputs being connected and disconnected from the inputs respectively. This makes it possible for the device to control various devices depending on the input signals.
The TPIC6B259DW also features an internal Schottky diode protection circuit. This circuit helps to prevent reverse currents in the output of the device, which could damage the device if not properly protected. Additionally, the device features an advanced ESD protection circuit that helps to suppress the electrical charge of an electrostatic discharge, while also helping to reduce power consumption.
In summary, the TPIC6B259DW is a high-performance latch device, which is well-suited for applications ranging from simple systems, like motor control, to complex systems like data processing systems. The device features advanced ESD protection, as well as Schottky diode protection, which make it an ideal choice for applications requiring reliable logic functions.
