TL7726CD

The TL7726CD is a Hex Clamping IC that consists of six identical clamping circuits that monitor an input voltage with respect to a reference value, REF. For an input voltage (VI) in the range of GND to <lt/>REF, the clamping circuits present a very high impedance to ground, drawing current of less than 10µA. The clamping circuits are active for VI <lt/>GND or VI <gt/>REF when, they have a very low impedance. These characteristics make the TL7726 ideal as protection devices for CMOS semiconductor devices in environments where there are large positive or negative transients to protect analog-to-digital converters in automotive or industrial systems.

• Protects against latch-up
• 25mA Current sink in active state
• Less than 1mW Dissipation in standby condition
• Ideal for applications in environments where large transient spikes occur
• Stable operation for all values of capacitive load
• No output overshoot
