Product details
Overview
IPS1025HQ-32 from STMicroelectronics is a high-side switch IC designed for industrial load control, featuring 8–60 V supply range, 5.6 A steady-state output current (per datasheet Table 10), ≤25 mΩ RDS-ON at TJ = 125 °C, dual-threshold overload protection (IPKH = 25.1 A, ILIMH = 17.9 A typ.), and integrated junction/case over-temperature shutdown (TJSD = 170 °C, TCSD = 130 °C). It drives inductive, resistive, or capacitive loads in programmable logic controllers and CNC machines.
For engineers reviewing the IPS1025HQ-32 datasheet, IPS1025HQ-32 pinout, IPS1025HQ-32 application, or IPS1025HQ-32 equivalent, key selection criteria include its VFQFPN-48L 8×6×0.9 mm package, smart capacitive-load driving via IPD-configurable thresholds, fast demagnetization (VDEMAG = VCC−72.5 V), diagnostic FLT1/FLT2 current-source pins, and IEC 61000-4-2/4-4/4-5 compliance.
Technical Context
This device implements a thermally robust high-side power switch with dual independent thermal monitoring: junction temperature sensing triggers output disable at 170 °C and resets at 150 °C, while case temperature sensing activates at 130 °C and resets at 110 °C. The active clamp circuit enables fast demagnetization of inductive loads by pulling OUT to VCC−72.5 V during turn-off.
Overload protection operates in three configurable modes via the IPD pin: dual-threshold (IPKH/ILIMH + IPKL/ILIML), single-low (IPKL = 13.1 A, ILIML = 8.0 A typ.), or single-high (IPKH = 25.1 A, ILIMH = 17.9 A typ.). Diagnostic outputs FLT1 and FLT2 are open-drain current sources (−4.0 mA sink at VFLT = 1 V) with 200–550 µs blanking time.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| VCC Range | 8 V to 60 V - supports wide industrial rail voltages including 24 V and 48 V systems without external regulation. |
| IOUT (Steady) | 5.6 A - maximum continuous output current rating per datasheet Table 10, validated up to TJ = 125 °C. |
| RDS-ON | ≤25 mΩ at TJ = 125 °C - ensures low conduction loss and thermal rise under full load in VFQFPN-48L package. |
| tPD(H-L) | 60–100 µs - propagation delay from IN high-to-low to OUT turn-off, critical for timing-critical PLC I/O cycles. |
| VDEMAG | VCC−72.5 V (min) - active clamp voltage enabling rapid inductive energy dissipation without external snubbers. |
| TJSD/TCSD | 170 °C / 130 °C - independent junction and case thermal shutdown thresholds prevent latch-up and board-level overheating. |
| IPKH/ILIMH | 25.1 A / 17.9 A (typ.) - initial peak-current threshold and limitation level for bulb lamp inrush management. |
Pinout & Package
IPS1025HQ-32 is housed in a VFQFPN-48L package (8 mm × 6 mm × 0.9 mm), with exposed thermal pad for enhanced heat dissipation. Pin functions are validated per DS13780 Rev 7 Figure 2 and Table 1.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| IN | Logic input control | CMOS-compatible input (VIH ≥ 2.2 V) enabling direct MCU GPIO drive; includes 0.4 V hysteresis for noise immunity. |
| OUT | Power stage output | High-side switched output (pins 17–24, 35–42 shorted on PCB); carries full load current with RDS-ON ≤ 25 mΩ. |
| FLT1 | Junction over-temperature diagnostic | Current-source fault pin (−4.0 mA sink @ VFLT = 1 V) activated when TJ > 170 °C; requires 1.5 kΩ pull-down if unused. |
| FLT2 | Overload event diagnostic | Current-source fault pin (−4.0 mA sink @ VFLT = 1 V) activated when output current exceeds IPK threshold; blanking time 200–550 µs. |
| IPD | Overload threshold configuration | Configures protection mode: capacitor-to-GND enables dual-threshold; 10 kΩ-to-GND selects IPKH; 220 kΩ-to-IN selects IPKL. |
| VCC | Supply input | Primary power rail (8–60 V); includes clamp at 70.0 V (typ.) to suppress transients per IEC 61000-4-5. |
| GND | Reference ground | Device ground reference; GND disconnection detection triggers <0.5 mA leakage current on OUT pin. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Smart capacitive load driving | Configurable dual-threshold overload protection (IPKH/ILIMH + IPKL/ILIML) via IPD pin capacitor, enabling controlled inrush for incandescent lamps. |
| Fast demagnetization | Active clamp circuit pulls OUT to VCC−72.5 V during inductive turn-off, eliminating need for external flyback diodes or snubbers. |
| Dual thermal protection | Independent junction (170 °C shutdown) and case (130 °C shutdown) sensors prevent thermal runaway and enable safe restart after cooling. |
| IEC-compliant ESD/EMI robustness | Designed to meet IEC 61000-4-2 (ESD), -4-4 (EFT), and -4-5 (surge) standards-critical for factory-floor industrial environments. |
| Diagnostic current-source outputs | FLT1 and FLT2 provide galvanically isolated fault signaling (−4.0 mA sink) compatible with optocoupler inputs or MCU ADC monitoring. |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar high-side switch applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| IPS1025H-32 | Same VFQFPN-48L package and pinout, but rated for 2.4 A steady-state current and lower overload thresholds (IPKH = 15.4 A, ILIMH = 9.0 A). | Targeted at lower-power industrial I/O where thermal budget is constrained and peak loads are less demanding. | Select when load current remains ≤2.4 A and cost sensitivity outweighs need for 5.6 A headroom. |
| STSPIN32F0B | Integrated 3-phase gate driver + Cortex-M0 MCU; lacks dedicated high-side switch architecture and dual thermal sensing. | Designed for BLDC motor control-not suitable as drop-in replacement for discrete load switching. | Only consider for new designs requiring embedded motor control; not a functional substitute for IPS1025HQ-32's pure high-side switching role. |
Compared with IPS1025H-32, the HQ-32 variant delivers 133% higher steady-state current and 64% higher peak overload tolerance, making it optimal for high-dynamic industrial loads; STSPIN32F0B introduces MCU integration but sacrifices diagnostic granularity and thermal independence required in safety-critical I/O modules.

FAQ
What is the maximum continuous output current for IPS1025HQ-32?
The IPS1025HQ-32 supports a maximum steady-state output current of 5.6 A, as specified in Table 10 of DS13780 Rev 7. This rating holds up to junction temperature TJ = 125 °C and assumes proper PCB thermal design using the VFQFPN-48L package's exposed pad. Derating applies above this temperature.
How does the IPD pin configure overload protection modes?
The IPD pin selects among three overload protection configurations: connecting to GND via a capacitor (470 pF–470 nF) enables dual-threshold mode (IPKH/ILIMH + IPKL/ILIML); a 10 kΩ resistor to GND selects single-high mode (IPKH only); a 220 kΩ resistor to IN selects single-low mode (IPKL only). Floating IPD defaults to 1 µs IPKH duration.
What thermal protections are implemented, and how do they interact?
IPS1025HQ-32 integrates two independent thermal protections: junction shutdown at 170 °C (reset at 150 °C) and case shutdown at 130 °C (reset at 110 °C). Junction protection activates first during overload; if case temperature then exceeds 130 °C, case protection overrides and holds output off until both temperatures fall below their reset thresholds.
Can FLT1 and FLT2 be used simultaneously with a single microcontroller input?
Yes-both FLT1 and FLT2 are open-drain current-source outputs (−4.0 mA sink) that can be wire-OR'd into a single MCU GPIO with a shared pull-up resistor. Their distinct fault conditions (FLT1 = junction/case over-temperature; FLT2 = overload) allow combined monitoring, though separate routing is recommended for precise root-cause diagnosis in safety-critical systems.
