Outputs 1-8 are self-configuring as high or low-
side drives. Self-configuration allows a user to
connect a high or low-side load to any of these
outputs and the L9733 will drive them correctly as
well as provide proper fault mode operation with
no other needed inputs. In addition, outputs 6, 7 and
8 can be PWM controlled via a external pins (IN6-8).
This device is capable of switching variable load
currents over the ambient range of -40 °C to
+125 °C. The outputs are MOSFET drivers to
minimize Vdd current requirements. For low-side
configured outputs an internal zener clamp from
the drain to gate with a breakdown of 50 V
minimum will provide fast turn off of inductive
loads. When a high-side configured output is
commanded Off after having been commanded
On, the source voltage will go to (VGND - 15 V).
An 16 bit SPI input is used to command the 8
output drivers either "On" or "Off", reducing the
I/O port requirement of the microcontroller.
Multiple L9733 can be daisy-chained. In addition
the SPI output indicates latched fault conditions
that may have occurred.

Description
The L9733 is a highly flexible monolithic, medium
current, output driver that incorporates 8 outputs
that can be used as either internal low or high-side
drives in any combination.
