driven by E100.16 contact monitor (8 channel to vbat, parallel interface) Features General Description ˘ ˘ ˘ ˘ ˘ ˘ The IC continuously monitors the status of all switch contacts connected to VS . ˘ ˘ Supply voltage range VS 5.25V to 25V Logic supply voltage range VDD 4.25V to 5.25V Internal clamp diodes at each input to VS and GND Low standby current (ENB=1) IVS < 20µA Contact status monitoring by comparing the input resistance to an internal reference High noise immunity Operating temperature range – 40°C to + 125°C SOIC 20 package The input currents are compared to the current in an internal reference resistor. The current, driven through the contacts keeps their resistance low. The output switches to high when the input resistance increases to above 10kÝ and switches to low when the input resistance falls below 2.5kÝ within the full supply range 5.25V to 25V. An external series resistance of 1kÝ is assumed to be connected between INn and the switch for current limitation incase of over voltage.
