2596 AND 2597
8-CHANNEL SATURATED SINK DRIVERS
Low output-saturation voltages at high load currents are provided
by UDN2596A and UDN2597A sink driver ICs. These devices can be
used as interface buffers between standard low-power digital logic
(particularly MOS) and high-power loads such as relays, solenoids,
stepping motors, and LED or incandescent displays. The eight satu-
rated sink drivers in each device feature high-voltage, high-current
