The IR331x family are highly efficient high side <strong>power</strong> switches that feature integrated programmable<br />
over-current protection, over-temperature protection, and active overvoltage clamping.<br />
In addition, the IR331x family provides a current feedback output with +/- 5% accuracy over the<br />
full operating temperature range (@max. load current) compared to about +/-20% for competitive<br />
devices. This accuracy combined with integrated programmable over-current shutdown<br />
enables the IR331x switches to protect not only itself but also the load by optimizing the shutdown<br />
threshold.<br />
The current feedback feature allows precise current monitoring and control for a very cost effective<br />
solution in many applications. With +/- 5% accuracy and 100 kHz bandwidth, the current<br />
feedback signal may be used by a standard PWM control IC, ASIC, or microcontroller to implement<br />
high-performance functionality from wide bandwidth closed-loop current control of a<br />
motor load to basic load fault detection. Implementing current sense functions with the IR331x<br />
family eliminates the <strong>power</strong> loss of a shunt resistor or cost of a Hall sensor.<br />
The IR331x devices are specifically designed for automotive 14V applications where a protection<br />
is required in order to prevent the IC and the application from damage in case of short circuits<br />
on the line, or by overload. The integrated over-temperature protection and programmable overcurrent<br />
shutdown features save additional fuses and wiring harness, improving the system reliability.<br />
Additional integrated features like ESD, reverse battery and active clamp guarantee protection<br />
even under harsh automotive operating conditions.<br />
