Using two(2) or more low side outputs in parallel on XC-23

Guillaume Fournier 5 years ago in Expansion modules / XC2x updated by Gustav Widén (System support) 5 years ago 1

Hello,

I'm wandering if I could use two(2) or more low side outputs in parallel on the XC-23 to increase the carrying current capacity from 300mA to 600mA (2 outputs) or more.  I have a relay that I need to drive that needs more than 300mA.

Thanks,

Guillaume

GOOD, I'M SATISFIED

Thanks Gustav !

Yes, it is possible to parallel connect the XC23 low-side outputs. Note that you must not exceed the combined load for the group, see Appendix A in the XC23 user manual :
