VB525SP-E High voltage ignition coil driver power integrated circuit Features Type Primary coil voltage internally set Coil current limit internally set Logic level compatible input Driving current quasi proportional to collector current Single flag on coil current ECOPACK®: lead free and RoHS compliant Low voltage clamp thermal shutdown Description The VB525SP-E is a high voltage power integrated circuit made using the STMicroelectronics™ VIPower™ M1-3 technology, with Darlington and logic level compatible vertical current flow power driving circuit. The enable pin allows to externally block the switch when the input is on. A built-in protection circuit for coil current limiting and collector voltage clamping allows the device to be used as a smart, high voltage, high current interface in advanced electronic ignition systems. If the input signal from the microcontroller happens to remain high, the device protects itself against overheating by forcing collector current to smoothly decrease (low voltage clamp feature) to avoid undesired spark.

Application schematic Application schematic Figure 8. Application diagram Note: ENABLE pin can be alternatively connected to LGND. Principle of operation The VB525SP-E is mainly intended as a high voltage power switch device driven by a logic level input and interfaces directly to a high energy electronic ignition coil. The input VIN of the VB525SP-E is fed from a low power signal generated by an external controller that determines both dwell time and ignition point. During VIN high (≥ 4 V) the VB525SP-E increases current in the coil to the desired, internally set current level. After...
