The BTS3160D is a latching single channel low-side Power Switch providing embedded protective functions. The power transistor is build by an N-channel vertical power MOSFET. The device is controlled by a control chip in Smart Power Technology. The device is able to switch all kind of resistive, inductive and capacitive loads. For lamp loads the lamp-inrush-current, eight- to ten-times the nominal current, has to be considered. The maximal inrush current has to be below the minimum short circuit shutdown current.
Logic level input compatible to 3.3 or 5V micro controllers
