DESCRIPTION
L602 14 - 25 V PMOS
The L601, L602, L603 and L604 are high voltage,
high current darlington arrays each containing L603 5 V TTL
eight open collector darlington pairs with common L604 6 - 15 V CMOS
emitters. Each channel is rated at 400 mA and can
with stand peak currents of 500 mA. Suppression
diodes are included for inductive load driving and These versatile devices are useful for driving a wide
