BL1600 Specifications s 79
For more information on sinking and sourcing high-voltage
drivers, refer to the Motorola (DL128) or Allegro (AMS
502Z) data books.

See Appendix D, Sinking and Sourcing Drivers, for more
information on installing and using sourcing drivers.

The sourcing drivers source voltage must range from 3 V to
30 V DC. The minimum output sustaining voltage is 15 V
DC. Operating the driver at more than 15 V without provid-
ing for energy dissipation may destroy the driver when an
inductive load is connected.
Sourcing Driver
The sourcing-driver IC can handle a maximum of 1.38 A (250 mA for any
channel), or 75 mA per channel on average if all channels are ON, at 60°C.
The sourcing IC can dissipate a maximum of 2.2 W. The saturation
voltage is 1.6 V DC max per channel.
