TBD62381APG

Overview

The TBD62381APG is an eight-channel low-side gate driver manufactured by Toshiba Semiconductor and Storage. It utilizes a DMOS transistor array architecture to provide robust switching capabilities for various load types. The device operates with a supply voltage range of 4.5 V to 5.5 V and supports output currents up to 500 mA per channel. It features inverting logic configuration and is housed in a 18-PDIP package designed for through-hole mounting. The component is rated for a maximum output voltage of 50 V and functions within a temperature range of -40°C to +85°C.

Feature Summary

• Integrates eight independent low-side DMOS output channels for simultaneous control of multiple loads.
• Features inverting logic interface compatible with standard CMOS input signals.
• Provides high current drive capability suitable for direct connection to inductive or resistive loads.

Applications

• Driving solenoid valves in industrial automation systems
• Contacting relay coils in control panels
• Actuating DC motors in small appliances

Procurement Notes

Verify the specific suffix APG corresponds to the PDIP-18 through-hole package variant when sourcing. Confirm RoHS compliance status via the manufacturer's official documentation, as environmental declarations may vary by production batch. Ensure the ordering part number matches the exact pinout and thermal requirements of the target PCB layout before finalizing procurement orders.

Selection Notes

Select this component when a through-hole DIP package is required for prototyping or legacy board designs. Choose this model over surface-mount variants if mechanical stability during assembly is prioritized. Verify that the 500 mA per-channel current rating meets the peak load requirements, considering the total power dissipation limits inherent to the PDIP package structure.

Part Context

This part belongs to the TBD6238x series of power drivers from Toshiba. It shares functional similarities with other members like the TBD62381AFNG but differs primarily in packaging technology. The series is designed for general-purpose switching applications requiring moderate current handling. It serves as a bridge between low-power logic controllers and higher-power peripheral devices.
