Can someone help me to identify this VISHAY IC? Tips on how to do this are also welcome :). I could not find anything by searching with the numbers on top of the IC. The IC is used in a MKS 649B Pressure Controller.

unkown VISHAY IC

Been searching the internet top to toe for an answer too, I think the best I could come up with alongside the H bridge was this Vishay resistor network ic. The naming on the datasheet doesn’t line up at all so not convinced I’m correct, but just thought I’d share.

    \$\begingroup\$ The PCB layout for the MKS649B is shown on page 39 of the manual: idealvac.com/files/manuals/MKS-649B-MAN.pdf This denotes the 24 pin IC as 'RN1' - so I suspect you are correct, it is a resistor network IC. Maybe something made as a 'special' with non-standard value resistors - hence no standard part number on the device \$\endgroup\$ Aug 4, 2020 at 12:57

I cant comment as I don't have enough points, so I will submit this as an answer: closest I could find. It is an IC made by Vishay with the correct package (SOIC-24(W)) as far as I can guess. And I only found it by using different search terms with some terms between hyphens.

I guess this could be the correct IC, as the one I found is an H-bridge driver, so this one could be used to power the pump of the pressurizer.

    \$\begingroup\$ Good shout, but not a SOIC24 package. SOIC packages are 1.27mm pitch - pin pitch on the IC shown is far too small. \$\endgroup\$ Aug 4, 2020 at 13:35
