## Component Details
- **Owner:** azertyuiopqsdfghjklm
- **Created:** 1/22/2026
- **Last Updated:** 1/29/2026
- **Visibility:** Public
- **Project Description:** 36 V contactor coil driver with safe kill input loop interface and 3.3 V logic control.
- **R9 Role:** Base-emitter pull-down for Q1 ensuring coil off when IC1 output is high-Z or low.
- **Contactor Coil Driver Topology:** Low-side NPN transistor (Q1 MMBT5551) with flyback diode (D2 UF4007) across coil between Net 1 (36 V) and Net 14 (Q1 collector).
- **R8 Role:** Base/gate series resistor limiting drive from IC1 to Q1 (switching control).
- **SAFE_IN Filter Components:** R3 (10k), C4 (100nF) to GND provide RC filtering; R4 (1k) provides series input protection and loop termination from CN3.
- **CN3 Role:** 2-pin connector for external safe kill loop input (Safe Raw on pin 1, GND on pin 2).
