What are the key features of DRV104PWPG4?

  • Integrated overcurrent and thermal shutdown protection prevents damage to the driver and load without external protection circuitry
  • PWM control input enables variable duty-cycle solenoid driving for proportional valve control and soft-start coil activation
  • 1.5 A peak high-side source output directly drives solenoids, relays, and small DC loads from 3.3 V or 5 V logic control signals

What is DRV104PWPG4 used for?

DRV104PWPG4 is designed to drive solenoids, proportional valves, relays, and small DC loads in industrial automation, HVAC systems, and automotive accessories. Its PWM input supports closed-loop force or position control of solenoid actuators by modulating average current with a variable duty cycle from a microcontroller. Built-in overcurrent and thermal protection reduce BOM cost and simplify safety compliance in unattended industrial equipment.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is the maximum continuous and peak output current of DRV104PWPG4 for solenoid driving applications?

DRV104PWPG4 delivers up to 1 A continuous source current and a 1.5 A peak output current to the load. In a solenoid pull-in sequence, the device can supply the higher 1.5 A inrush current during the initial energize phase, then the PWM duty cycle is reduced to limit steady-state current to 1 A or below, preventing coil overheating. This peak-to-hold current profile is common in fuel injector, door lock, and proportional valve drive circuits.

How does the integrated overcurrent protection in DRV104PWPG4 respond to a shorted solenoid winding?

When the output current exceeds the overcurrent threshold (typically 2 A), the DRV104PWPG4 immediately shuts off the high-side switch and signals a fault condition via the STATUS output pin. The device automatically attempts to restart after a blanking period, providing a hiccup-mode protection behavior. This limits maximum power dissipation during a fault to safe levels without requiring an external current-sense resistor or comparator, simplifying the protection circuit for solenoid-driven industrial valve manifolds.

What PWM frequency range is recommended for controlling DRV104PWPG4 in a proportional valve application?

Texas Instruments recommends a PWM input frequency of 1 kHz to 20 kHz for inductive solenoid loads with typical inductances of 10 mH to 100 mH. At 10 kHz, the ripple current in a 20 mH solenoid coil is roughly 50 mA peak-to-peak at 12 V supply, which is low enough to give smooth force control without audible noise. Below 1 kHz the ripple current increases significantly, causing position dither in proportional valve systems; above 20 kHz switching losses and EMI increase without further benefit.

How does the DRV104PWPG4 high-side architecture benefit grounded-load solenoid wiring compared to a low-side driver?

With a high-side driver like DRV104PWPG4, the solenoid load is connected between the driver output and GND, keeping the load wiring at ground potential when de-energized. This prevents ground loops and reduces susceptibility to induced voltages in long cable runs common in industrial panels and HVAC ducting. Low-side drivers, by contrast, leave the load wiring at the supply voltage when off, which can cause false activation if cable insulation is damaged and the wire contacts ground, creating a safety hazard in 24 V or higher supply systems.
