Description
The CS3361 integral alternator regulator integrated circuit provides the voltage regulation for automotive, 3-phase alternators.
It drives an external logic level N channel enhancement power FET for control of the alternator field current. In the event of a charge fault, a lamp output pin is provided to drive an external darlington transistor capable of switching on a fault indicator lamp. An overvoltage or no Stator signal condition activates the lamp output.
The CS3361 is available in a 14 lead SO package.
