DRV8804DW

Overview

The DRV8804DW is a unipolar solenoid and relay driver manufactured by Texas Instruments, housed in a 20-pin SOIC package. It features four low-side outputs capable of delivering up to 1.5 A each. The device operates within a supply voltage range of 8.2 V to 60 V and supports junction temperatures from -40°C to +125°C. Quiescent current is specified at 1.6 mA. This component integrates control and power stages for driving multiple loads simultaneously.

Feature Summary

• Integrates four independent low-side output drivers for simultaneous load control
• Supports high-voltage operation up to 60 V with integrated protection mechanisms
• Designed for low quiescent current consumption to minimize standby power usage

Applications

• Unipolar solenoid actuation systems
• Relay driver circuits
• Industrial automation control modules

Procurement Notes

Verify the specific suffix 'DW' corresponds to the SOIC-20 tube packaging configuration. Confirm RoHS compliance status through official documentation. Check for end-of-life notices as availability may be limited. Ensure thermal management requirements are met for the intended operating environment.

Selection Notes

Select this component when driving multiple unipolar loads requiring individual control. Consider the 1.5 A per channel limit and 60 V maximum rating. Evaluate thermal dissipation needs for the SOIC-20 package. Compare against DRV8803 if pinout compatibility or specific feature sets differ.

Part Context

Part of the DRV880x family of motor and motion controllers. Designed for applications requiring compact solutions for driving solenoids and relays. Integrates power MOSFETs with logic control interfaces.

Replacement Considerations

DRV8803DW offers similar functionality but may have different internal configurations or pinouts. Verify electrical specifications and mechanical dimensions before substitution.
