FLEXMOS Hex Low‐side MOSFET Pre‐driver

The NCV7518 / NCV7518A programmable six channel low-side MOSFET pre-driver is one of a family of FLEXMOS automotive grade products for driving logic-level MOSFETs. The product is controllable by a combination of serial SPI and parallel inputs. The device offers 3.3 V/ 5 V compatible inputs and the serial output driver can be powered from either 3.3 V or 5 V. An internal power-on reset provides controlled power up. A reset input allows external re-initialization and an enable input allows all outputs and diagnostics to be simultaneously disabled.
