n
Since the thermal time constant of the package is very short, the
number of outputs that are on at any one time should include those
that overlap even for a few milliseconds.
n
Incandescent lamps have a “cold” current of 11 times that of their
“hot” current. It is recommended that lamps requiring more than
50 mA not be used.
n
When inductive loads are used, protection diodes or other schemes
must be used. Refer to Figure 6-4.

n
Configuring outputs in parallel for higher drive is NOT recom-
mended and could result in damage since the outputs will not share
current equally.
WARNING!
If external devices, such as 24 VDC relays, are driven, the
ground of the external 24V supply must be connected to J1,
pin 26 and NOT the power ground. Failure to do so will
produce aground loop within the PC Microcontroller and
can cause erratic operation.
