When the device is switched off (I
IN
= 0) the voltage
between IN and GND reaches almost V

. Use a
mechanical switch, a bipolar or MOS transistor with
appropriate breakdown voltage as driver.

If you don't use the current sense output in your
application, you can leave it open.

gives faster deenergizing of
the inductive load, but higher peak power dissipation in
the PROFET. In case of a floating ground with a
potential higher than 19V referring to the OUT –
potential the device will switch on, if diode DS is not
used.
