MAX4824ETP+
+3.3V/+5V, 8-Channel Relay Drivers with Fast Recovery Time and Power-Save Mode, TQFN20, Maxim, RoHS

---

The MAX4824 8-channel relay drivers offer built-in kickback protection and drive +3V/+5V nonlatching or dual-coil-latching relays. Each independent open-drain output features a 2.7? (typ) on-resistance and is guaranteed to sink 70mA (min) of load current. These devices consume less than 300µA (max) quiescent current and have 1µA output off-leakage current. A Zener-kickback-protection circuit significantly reduces recovery time in applications where switching speed is critical.

The MAX4824 feature a unique power-save mode where the relay current, after activation, can be reduced to a level just above the relay hold-current threshold. This mode keeps the relay activated while significantly reducing the power consumption.

Features:

• Built-In Zener Kickback Protection for Fast Recovery
• Programmable Power-Save Mode Reduces Relay Power Consumption
• 10MHz SPI-/QSPI-/MICROWIRE-Compatible Serial Interface
