APPLICATION NOTE  
Prepared by: Alejandro Lara  
ON Semiconductor  
Industrial and Automotive Application Requirements  
The device requirements for industrial and automotive  
applications are different and must be addressed in different  
manner. While the requirements for automotive applications  
are the most difficult to comply with, industrial  
requirements traditionally allow more latitudes. Relay coil  
currents vary considerably depending on the applications.  
The largest class of industrial and automotive relays have  
coils with current consumption between 50 and 150 mA.  
Selection of a suitable relay driver requires many  
constraints to be evaluated. For automotive applications, it  
is necessary to put special attention in the following  
requirements:  
Abstract  
Most PC board mounted relays are driven by  
microprocessors or other sensitive electronic devices. A  
successful coil drive circuit requires isolation between the  
relay and the microprocessor circuitry. Effective drive  
circuits must account for drive current and voltage  
requirements as well as effective suppression of L di/dt  
transients which can destroy microprocessor circuits. While  
it is easy to over−design an effective drive circuit, today’s  
designs must be cost competitive. Integrating a monolithic  
IC driver device into the relay will provide significant value  
to the system designer.  
This  
paper  
describes  
the  
operation  
of  
ON Semiconductor’s integrated relay driver products to  
interface sensitive electronic devices with mechanical  
relays to accomplish different control/power functions.  
Important benefits such as PC board space savings and  
components count reduction are also explained.  
Load dump (80 V, 300 msec)  
Dual voltage jump start (24 V or more)  
Reverse battery (−14 V, 1minute or more)  
ESD immunity (according AEC−Q100 specification)  
Operating ambient temperature (−40°C to 85°C)  
Introduction  
Meeting these automotive requirements usually results in  
specifying an oversized and non−cost effective relay driver,  
or one requiring many protection components.  
Industrial applications on the other hand do not have many  
requirements different than the standard ones such as ESD  
immunity (usually 2.0 kV HBM), and a given range of  
operating ambient temperature (usually between 0°C to  
85°C). However, some applications also call for protection  
devices against transient voltage conditions, which creates  
the need for extra protection components too.  
Although the advances in the electronics industry are  
increasing day by day, mechanical relays are still  
extensively used in industrial and automotive applications to  
control high current loads. Their low cost and excellent fault  
tolerance make relays to be an useful and reliable solution  
in industrial and automotive applications environments. The  
integrated relay driver devices NUD3105, NUD3112 and  
NUD3124 offered by ON Semiconductor are considered to  
be the ideal device solution to control mechanical relays  
used in industrial and automotive applications. Their  
integrated design allows significant simplification and cost  
reductions when replacing traditional discrete solutions  
such as bipolar transistors plus free−wheeling diodes.

Standard Discrete RELAY DRIVERS  
ON Semiconductor’s RELAY DRIVERS  
The ON Semiconductor’s relay drivers portfolio is  
divided in two main categories:  
Industrial version (devices NUD3105, NUD3112)  
Automotive version (device NUD3124)  
For both type of applications industrial and automotive,  
the most traditional and popular relay drivers are the ones  
formed discretely with a bipolar transistor, two bias resistors  
and a free−wheeling diode. In some cases, it is required to  
add extra components such as MOVs (metal oxide varistors)  
and extra diodes to ensure proper protection. Figure 1 shows  
a typical discrete relay driver with the extra protection  
devices. Diode D1 provides reverse supply protection and  
diode D2 provides a clamp function to suppress the voltage  
spike generated by the relay’s coil during the turn−off  
interactions (V = Ldi/dt). A power MOV device is used to  
limit positive transients to within the bipolar transistor’s  
breakdown voltage. The saturation voltage of the bipolar  
transistor (typically over 1.0 V) causes high power  
dissipation which in some cases eliminates the option to use  
inexpensive surface mount package devices such as  
SOT−23 or smaller, therefore the need for bigger packages  
such as TO220 is always present. The resulting discrete  
circuit is expensive because it takes several components and  
a big space in the PC board.  
Industrial Version  
Figure 2 describes the industrial relay driver version  
(devices NUD3105, NUD3112). This device integrates  
several discrete components in a single SOT−23 three  
leaded surface mount package to achieve a simpler and more  
efficient solution than the conventional discrete relay  
drivers. The characteristics of the integrated devices are  
listed below:

When positive logic voltage is applied to the gate of the  
device (5.0 V/3.3 V), the FET is turned−on which activates  
the relay. When the FET is turned−off, the relay’s coil is  
deactivated which causes it to kickback and generates a high  
voltage spike, this voltage spike is suppressed by the clamp  
Zener diodes placed across the FET. This operation  
sequence is repeated for all the on and off operations of the  
relay driver. Figure 4 shows the voltage and current  
waveforms generated across the NUD3112 relay driver  
when it is controlling an OMRON relay (G8TB−1A−64).  
This relay has the following coil characteristics: L = 46 mH,  
Rdc = 100 W. The current that the relay takes for 12 V of  
supply voltage is 120 mA. The integrated FET has a typical  
on−resistance of 1.0 ,Wtherefore the power dissipation

Based on the relay coil specifications, the energy that is  
The 40 V N−channel FET is designed to switch on and off  
the relay’s coil for currents up to 200 mA. The clamping  
protection Zener diodes (28 V) provides an active clamp  
function to drain to ground the voltage spikes generated by  
the relay’s coils during the turn−off interactions (V = Ldi/dt).  
This function is achieved by partially activating the FET  
through the clamp Zener diodes anytime the voltage across  
them reaches their breakdown voltage level (28 V). The  
ESD protection Zener diodes protects the gate−source  
silicon junction against ESD conditions possibly induced by  
persons during the handling or assembly of the device. And  
the bias resistor provides the drive control signals to the FET.

NUD3124 device.  
transferred to the driver by the relay’s coils can be  
theoretically calculated by using the formula E = ½ L I2,  
which results in 0.331 mJ. The avalanche energy capability  
of the NUD3105 and NUD3112 devices is 50 mJ, so the  
0.331 mJ transferred by the OMRON relay only represents  
a 0.65% of their energy capability. The same theoretical  
principle (E = ½ L I2) can be used to find out the type of  
relay’s coils that the NUD3105 and NUD3112 devices can  
drive. For these purposes, one needs to know the inductance  
and current characteristics of the relay’s coil to calculate the  
energy that will be transferred. The resulting energy should  
not exceed the 50 mJ at which the devices are rated.

Figure 7 shows the voltage and current waveforms  
activating the FET anytime transient voltage conditions  
exceed the breakdown voltage of the clamp Zener diodes  
(28 V). The energy capability of the NUD3124 device is  
350 mJ typically. Figure 8 shows an oscilloscope picture of  
a surge test applied to the device when it was characterized  
to find its maximum reverse avalanche energy capability.  
The high reverse avalanche energy capability of this  
device (350 mJ) allows to control most of the relays used in  
automotive applications since they usually have coils  
between 50 mA and 150 mA with inductance values lower  
than 1 Henry. These type of coils do not transfer high levels  
generated across the NUD3124 relay driver when it is  
controlling an OMRON relay (G8TB−1A−64). This relay  
has the following coil characteristics: L = 46 mH, Rdc =  
100W. The current that the OMRON relay takes for 12 V of  
supply voltage is 120 mA. The integrated FET has a typical  
on−resistance of 1.0 ,Wtherefore the power dissipation

of energy to the NUD3124 device (E = ½ L I , and therefore  
each of them can be controlled with the same device  
(NUD3124). Big advantages are obtained when a common  
relay driver product is used to control the majority of the  
relays used in a particular application circuit. PC board  
space is saved and the circuit design is optimized. In  
addition, components count purchasing operations are also  
simplified.

The active clamp characteristic of the NUD3124 device  
also allows it to comply with automotive requirements of  
load dump and other voltage transients required by the  
automotive specifications. Load dump transients are  
generated by the vehicle’s alternator when the battery  
connection fails during heavy charging. These type of  
transients could occur when the relay is on or off. Although  
automotive requirements for load dump vary between  
suppliers, it has been learned that most of the load dump  
requirements can be covered by devices which can sustain  
a load dump transient of 60 V with 350 msec of duration.  
Figure 9 shows a load dump transient of 60 V and 350 msec  
of duration.

The 73 V waveform shown in the oscilloscope picture  
RELAY MODULE  
(Figure 9) resulted from the 60 V load dump transient plus  
the vehicle’s battery voltage (13 V). In the application field,  
the relay driver (NUD3124) is always connected to relays,  
therefore if a load dump condition occurs, the current is  
limited by the relay’s coil resistance which reduces the  
amount of energy that the relay driver (NUD3124) needs to  
drain to ground. Figure 10 shows an oscilloscope picture  
with the waveforms generated across the NUD3124 device  
when it is subjected to a load dump transient. For this case,  
the device is controlling an OMRON relay (G8TB−1A−64)  
The most stressful and aggressive requirement for  
automotive transients is load dump. Therefore if a device is  
able to comply with this requirement, it is assured that it will  
sustain all the other less aggressive transients such as 240 V  
(10 Wsource impedance), 350 smtime−duration type.  
In addition to complying with the load dump transient  
requirements and all the other smaller automotive transients,  
the NUD3124 device also complies with other automotive  
requirements such as reverse battery (−14 V, 1 minute or  
more) and dual voltage jump start (24 V "10%).  
The benefits of the ON Semiconductor’s relay driver  
devices (NUD3105, NUD3112 and NUD3124) are even  
more unique and useful if they are integrated inside the relay  
body to create relay modules that can be driven directly from  
the logic circuitry. The advantages are:  
No need for external driver device  
PC board space reduction  
Reduction for insertion operations.  
Optimized design for lower cost  
All the previous advantages will result in costs reduction  
for industrial and automotive applications which have the  
need for mechanical relays. Figure 10 describes graphically  
the design of the relay module. Some relay manufacturers  
already integrate a diode connected in parallel with the  
relay’s coil to simplify the driver circuitry. Others are  
considering to develop the concept of the relay module. The  
major goal of the relay’s manufacturers is to offer more  
added value to their customers for design optimization and  
cost reduction.  
If a reverse battery condition occurs, it will cause the body  
diode of the FET to be forward biased and hence conduct.  
During this condition, the current will be limited by the  
relay’s coil resistance to a safe level causing the relay be  
energized. With the traditional discrete approach, damage  
can occur to the control logic circuitry due to a possible  
current path from a reverse connected battery through the  
driver to the logic’s output. This possibility is eliminated  
when the NUD3124 device is used.  
If a dual voltage jump start is used (24 V or more), the  
NUD3124 device will remain in its off−state and therefore  
the relays will too. This is the ideal operation required during  
a dual voltage jump start condition, otherwise the relays  
would be activated and could create serious operation  
problems in the equipment or functions that they are  
controlling (windows, seats, etc.).

Summary  
applications. It is also packaged in a small three leaded  
surface mount SOT−23 package that allows optimum  
operation with reduced PC board space for cost reductions.  
The relay module represents significant benefits for the  
industrial and automotive relay markets. It reduces PC board  
space and optimize the circuits design. These benefits result  
in a significant added value and cost reduction for  
customers. Advantages like these are always a premium.  
The traditional discrete relay driver approach (bipolar  
transistor, bias resistors and free−wheeling diode) is  
expensive because it takes several components and a big  
space in the PC board. In some cases it requires extra  
protection components to achieve proper functionality in  
automotive and some industrial applications.  
The NUD3105 and NUD3112 relay driver devices offered  
by ON Semiconductor replace the traditional discrete relay  
driver approach by integrating all the necessary components  
through a monolithic process. Their integrated design is  
packaged in a small three leaded surface mount SOT−23  
package that allows optimum operation with reduced PC  
board space, which results in cost savings from the  
manufacturing and components count stand point.
