SP1404BW
HIGH VOLTAGE INTERFACE CIRCUIT
The SP1404 is a bipolar integrated circuit comprising five
individual digital current amplifier circuits. Each circuit accepts
a logic input from TTL, CMOS or a similar source and drives a
high-current load at the output. The outputs are capable of
withstanding high negative voltages in the ‘off’ state, making
the SP1404 particularly suited to telecommunications
applications.
CIRCUIT DESCRIPTION (Fig.2)
The SP1404 operates as a power amplifier interfacing from
a voltage-level sensitive input to a high-current output switch.
The input threshold is TTL-compatible, with a low input current
requirement enabling one standard TTL output to drive many
interfaces. The low input current requirement also makes it
possible to use series current-limiting resistors to protect the
SP1404 inputs.
Each element of the device performs as inverting function,
i.e. a low voltage level on the input causes a high current in the
output. If the input is left open-circuit, the output will be off and
the output current will be zero.
The isolation of the integrated circuit is biased to the more
negative of the two earth points by diodes D1 and D2 so that
differences of up to (V
CC
- 1) volts can be tolerated between the
‘noisy’ exchange earth and the ‘quiet’ electronic earth.
