5-channel high current driver

BA612
The BA612 is a high-current driver IC, and contains an array of five Darlington transistors, each with input resistance. Input and output can be directed in the same direction using DIP Pin 14, with the layout optimized to facilitate mounting.

Applications Hammer solenoid drivers Relay drivers LED drivers

Features 1) 5-circuit Darlington transistor array. 2) Large current (up to 400mA) can be driven. 3) Input and output pins are aligned in the same direction, for easy mounting.

4) High current transfer ratio. 5) Can be coupled with MOS ICs.

Connections should be made as shown in Figure 12 if inductive load is being driven. A clamp diode has to be added in series with the load to suppress surges in the inductive load.
