General Description
The HV9901 universal relay driver provides high-effi-
ciency driving for low-voltage relays with supply volt-
ages as high as 450V. For example, a relay with a 5V
coil can be driven directly from the rectified 120 VAC or
230 VAC line.
The IC includes two high-voltage linear regulators. The
first one is for providing power to internal control cir-
cuitry. The second one has an adjustable output volt-
age and a 1 mA output current capability to support
external circuitry, such as a microcontroller control cir-
cuit.
The pull-in current, pull-in time and hold current for the
relay are individually programmable through two resis-
tors and a capacitor. PWM switching can be synchro-
nized with an external clock or with another HV9901
operating at a higher frequency.
The relay is operated through the enable input ENI.
Logic polarity is under control of the polarity input POL.
Audible noise coming from the relay can be sup-
pressed by operating at a PWM frequency exceeding
20 kHz.

† Notice:
Stresses above those listed under “Maximum Ratings” may cause permanent damage to the device. This is
a stress rating only, and functional operation of the device at those or any other conditions above those indicated in the
operational listings of this specification is not implied. Exposure to maximum rating conditions for extended periods
may affect device reliability.
Note 1:
All voltages are referenced to GND.
2:
For operation above 25°C ambient, derate linearly at 7.5 mW/°C.
