PWM RELAY/SOLENOID DRIVER
Rev A0.3, Page 2/11
DESCRIPTION
iC-GE100 is a PWM driver for inductive loads, such
as relay coils, solenoid valves and other inductive
loads.
The setpoints for the coil’s energising and hold current are pre-set by means of external resistors RACT
and RHOLD. These currents can be set in a range
from 10 to 100 mA. The iC-GE100 switches from energising to hold mode after 50 ms provided that the
set energising current has been reached.
The changeover between energising and hold modes
is suitable for typical relay drives which require a
powerful initial energising current which can then be
reduced after closing the air gap in a magnetic circuit. The quadratic dependence on the current intensity means that cutting the current by half reduces
the power dissipation by ca. 75%.
Using PWM the output current is controlled to the
values set at RACT and RHOLD. The internal flyback diode maintains the current during the switch-
ing pauses. The switching frequency of ca. 80 kHz is
provided by the internal oscillator.
The device is shutdown by a Low signal at input EN
or the removal of the power supply; the current reduction in the coil is supported by the changeover of
the free-wheeling circuit. The Zener diode now active permits higher free-wheeling voltages and thus a
quicker demagnetising of the coil.
The status indicator LED is constantly ON when hold
mode is functioning correctly and flashes with low
voltage, excessive temperature or when the coil current in energise mode has not reached the setpoint.
The driver output is shutdown with low voltage or excessive temperature. Alternatively to using an LED
output DIAG signals the correct operating by outputting a high signal.
The input signal at EN can be synchronised with the
zero crossing at input SYNC. Thus by using an external R/C network, the switching of the coil can be
synchronised with the load current of e.g. the relay.

By means of resistors RS* and capacitors CS* a phase
shifted signal at SYNC is derived from the 50 Hz load
supply.
Thus the relay is activated resp. deactivated with zero
crossing of the load supply after working EN.

V(SYNC)
Time
The phase shift is used to compensate the switching
delay of the relay so that the load can be switched at
