DABiC-5 8-Bit Serial Input Latched Sink Drivers
Package A
18-pin DIP
The merging of low-power CMOS logic and bipolar output power
drivers permit the A6841 integrated circuits to be used in a wide variety
of peripheral power driver applications. Each device has an eight-bit
CMOS shift register and CMOS control circuitry, eight CMOS data
latches, and eight bipolar current-sinking Darlington output drivers. The
500 mA NPN Darlington outputs, with integral transient-suppression
diodes, are suitable for use with relays, solenoids, and other inductive
loads.
All package variations of the A6841 offer premium performance with
a minimum output-breakdown voltage rating of 50 V (35 V sustaining).
All drivers can be operated with a split supply where the negative supply is up to –20 V.
Package LW
18-pin Wide Body SOIC
Package LW-20
20-pin Wide Body SOIC
The CMOS inputs are compatible with standard CMOS logic levels.
TTL circuits may require the use of appropriate pull-up resistors. By
using the serial data output, drivers can be cascaded for interface applications requiring additional drive lines.
The A6841SA devices are furnished in a standard 18-pin plastic DIP. The
A6841SLW device is available in an 18-lead SOIC package. A 20-pin
SOIC version, A6841SLW-20 has improved thermal characteristics. The
SOIC drivers are also available for operation to a temperature of –40°C
(part number suffix ELW). These devices are lead (Pb) free, with 100%
matte tin plated leadframes.

NOTE: Timing is representative of a 10 MHz clock. Higher speeds may be
attainable; operation at high temperatures will reduce the specified maximum clock frequency.
Powering-on with the inputs in the low state ensures that the registers and
latches power-on in the low state (POR).
Serial Data present at the input is transferred to the shift register on the logical
0 to logical 1 transition of the CLOCK input pulse. On succeeding CLOCK
pulses, the registers shift data information towards the SERIAL DATA OUTPUT. The SERIAL DATA must appear at the input prior to the rising edge of the
CLOCK input waveform.
25
Information present at any register is transferred to the respective latch
when the STROBE is high (serial-to-parallel conversion). The latches will
continue to accept new data as long as the STROBE is held high. Applications where the latches are bypassed (STROBE tied high) will require that
the OUTPUT ENABLE input be high during serial data entry.
When the OUTPUT ENABLE input is high, all of the output buffers are
disabled (OFF). The information stored in the latches or shift register is not
affected by the OUTPUT ENABLE input. With the OUTPUT ENABLE
input low, the outputs are controlled by the state of their respective latches.
