Product details

Overview

IPS160HFTR from STMicroelectronics is a 60 V, 2.5 A single high-side switch in PowerSSO12 package, featuring 60 mΩ R_DS(on), ≤60 μs startup propagation delay, and integrated non-dissipative cut-off protection for inductive loads. It delivers diagnostic signaling (open load, overload, thermal shutdown) and meets IEC 61131-2 for industrial PLC I/O modules.

For engineers reviewing the IPS160HFTR datasheet, IPS160HFTR pinout, IPS160HFTR application, or IPS160HFTR equivalent, this device supports SIL-capable architectures in programmable logic controllers, CNC machine I/O, domotics power switching, and industrial PC peripheral drivers where fast demagnetization, ground/VCC disconnection resilience, and programmable fault timing are critical.

Technical Context

The IPS160HFTR implements a monolithic high-side power stage with active V_DS clamp for fast inductive load demagnetization, enabling <60 μs t_D(VCC-ON) and Class 3 interface compliance per IEC 61131-2. Its logic input accepts 2.2–5.5 V high-level signals with 0.4 V hysteresis and internal weak pull-down.

Protection architecture includes undervoltage lock-out (6.9 V turn-on, 6.5 V turn-off), junction thermal shutdown at 150–190 °C with 15 °C hysteresis, and GND/VCC disconnection detection. Cut-off delay is externally programmable via capacitor on CoD pin (50 × C_CoD ±35%), or disabled with 1 kΩ to GND.

Key Specifications

Parameter	Value and Actual Design Meaning
V_CC Range	8 V to 60 V - supports wide industrial supply rails including 24 V and 48 V systems without external regulation.
R_DS(on)	60 mΩ (typ.) @ 25 °C - enables low conduction loss and <2.5 A continuous output current capability.
t_PD(L-H)	20–35 μs - ensures rapid response to control signals for real-time I/O timing in PLC scan cycles.
Cut-off Delay	Programmable 50×C_CoD ±35% (10–100 nF range) - prevents thermal runaway during sustained overload while allowing controlled restart.
Diagnostic Output	Open-drain DIAG pin reporting open load (off-state), cut-off, and thermal shutdown - simplifies fault monitoring with single-wire interface.
Active Clamp Voltage	V_DEMAG = V_CC − 65.5 to 71.5 V - enables fast, controlled energy dissipation in inductive loads without external diodes.
Thermal Shutdown	150–190 °C with 15 °C hysteresis - protects IC and load under sustained overcurrent or ambient overheating conditions.

Pinout & Package

IPS160HFTR uses the PowerSSO12 surface-mount package (5.0 × 4.0 mm, 1.6 mm height) with exposed V_CC thermal pad (Tab) for enhanced thermal performance. The package supports up to 2.2 W power dissipation with 4 thermal vias (R_th(JA) = 29 °C/W).

Pin/Terminal	Circuit Role	Design Meaning
1, 12, TAB	V_CC	Primary supply input and thermal pad connection - must be soldered to PCB copper for thermal management and current return path.
2	IN	Logic input controlling channel activation - accepts 2.2–5.5 V high-level signal with internal weak pull-down for fail-safe off-state.
3	DIAG	Open-drain diagnostic output - pulled low during open load (off-state), cut-off, or thermal shutdown; requires external pull-up.
4	CoD	Cut-off delay programming - connects to GND via 1 kΩ resistor to disable cut-off, or to capacitor to set t_COFF (50×C_CoD ±35%).
5, 6	NC	No-connect pins - must remain unconnected per design; no internal circuitry attached.
7	GND	Device ground reference - forms return path for supply, diagnostics, and protection sensing; separate from load ground.
8–11	OUT	High-side power output - drives resistive/capacitive/inductive loads connected between OUT and system ground; rated for 60 V max.

Key Features

Feature	Design Value
Fast startup propagation	≤60 μs t_D(VCC-ON) enables Class 3 interface compliance per IEC 61131-2 for safety-critical PLC inputs/outputs.
Non-dissipative cut-off	Programmable t_COFF limits sustained overload duration, reducing average power dissipation and preventing thermal damage.
Active V_DS clamp	V_DEMAG clamping enables fast demagnetization of inductive loads without external freewheeling diode, preserving board space and efficiency.
Comprehensive diagnostics	Single open-drain DIAG pin reports three distinct faults - open load (off-state), cut-off, and thermal shutdown - minimizing BOM and routing complexity.
Supply resilience	Integrated V_CC and GND disconnection protection maintains safe shutdown behavior even during wiring faults in harsh industrial environments.

Equivalent & Alternatives

The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar high-side switch applications.

Alternative Part	Technical Difference	Application Difference	Selection Advice
IPS161HFTR	Lower current rating (0.7 A vs. 2.5 A), same package and feature set - shares identical pinout and diagnostic architecture.	Suitable for low-power sensors and indicator LEDs; not rated for solenoids or motors requiring >1 A peak current.	Select when load current is consistently ≤0.7 A and thermal margin is less constrained.
VND5E025AKTR-E	Higher R_DS(on) (100 mΩ), lower V_CC max (36 V), no programmable cut-off - uses SO-8 package with different thermal profile.	Limited to 24 V systems; lacks CoD-programmable fault timing and active demagnetization voltage control.	Choose for cost-sensitive 24 V-only designs where diagnostic granularity and fast demag are secondary.

Compared with IPS160HFTR, IPS161HFTR trades current capacity for identical diagnostic fidelity and timing, while VND5E025AKTR-E sacrifices programmability and voltage headroom for SO-8 compatibility and lower unit cost in non-SIL applications.

FAQ

What is the maximum continuous output current for IPS160HFTR?

The IPS160HFTR supports up to 2.5 A continuous output current (ILIM typ. = 4.2 A) under specified thermal conditions (T_J ≤ 125 °C, R_th(JA) ≤ 29 °C/W). Actual current capability depends on PCB layout, ambient temperature, and heatsinking - derate linearly above 85 °C ambient per datasheet Figure 18.

How does the CoD pin affect cut-off behavior?

The CoD pin sets cut-off delay time (t_COFF) via external capacitor: t_COFF = 50 × C_CoD ±35% (10–100 nF range). Connecting CoD to GND through 1 kΩ disables cut-off, forcing the device into sustained current limitation until IN goes low or thermal shutdown triggers - use only in thermally managed designs.

Can IPS160HFTR drive inductive loads without an external flyback diode?

Yes - its integrated active V_DS clamp provides fast demagnetization by holding V_OUT at V_CC − 65.5 to 71.5 V during turn-off, dissipating energy internally. External Schottky diodes are only required for single-pulse demagnetization energy exceeding 3000 mJ (at V_CC = 24 V, T_AMB = 125 °C), per Figure 13.

What diagnostic states are reported on the DIAG pin?

The open-drain DIAG pin pulls low for three distinct fault conditions: open load in off-state (IN = low, load disconnected), cut-off (overload event exceeding t_COFF), and junction thermal shutdown (T_J ≥ 150–190 °C). It remains high during normal operation and UVLO - requires external pull-up resistor (typically 4.7 kΩ to V_CC).
