Product details
Overview
IPS8200HQ-1 from STMicroelectronics is an octal high-side smart power solid-state relay IC built on VIPower™ technology, designed for industrial PLC I/O modules and NC machine load control. It delivers 1.0 A per channel (confirmed), operates from 10.5 V to 36 V (confirmed), integrates a 100 mA adjustable DC/DC regulator (confirmed), and supports selectable SPI (up to 5 MHz) or parallel interface (confirmed) - enabling robust driving of resistive, capacitive, and inductive loads in grounded-load configurations.
For engineers reviewing the IPS8200HQ-1 datasheet, IPS8200HQ-1 pinout, IPS8200HQ-1 application, or IPS8200HQ-1 equivalent, key selection considerations include per-channel 1.0 A current limit, independent junction/case overtemperature protection, loss-of-GND detection, Power Good diagnostics, and integrated 4×2 LED matrix for real-time output status monitoring - all in a VFQFPN-48L (8×6 mm) package compliant with IEC61131-2 and IEC61000-4-x immunity standards.
Technical Context
This monolithic 8-channel high-side driver implements VIPower™ vertical power MOSFETs with embedded charge-pump gate drivers, enabling direct high-voltage switching without external bootstrap components. Each channel features active current limiting (1.0 A typ.), fast demagnetization clamping (VOUT clamp ≤ VCC−45 V), and dual thermal protection: per-channel junction shutdown at 160–180 °C (TTSD) and system-level case shutdown at 115–155 °C (TCSD).
The integrated buck regulator operates at 400 kHz with peak-current mode control, delivering 3.3 V or 5 V on VREG (adjustable via FB divider), and supplies logic, SPI interface, and the 4×2 LED matrix. SPI mode supports daisy-chaining, MCU freeze detection via watchdog (programmable timeout), and extended diagnostics including SPI parity errors, Power Good (PG), junction overtemperature (FAULT), and case overtemperature (TWARN).
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| VCC Range | 10.5 V to 36 V - enables direct connection to industrial 24 V DC rails with 15% undervoltage margin. |
| Output Current (per channel) | 1.0 A continuous - confirmed for IPS8200HQ-1 (vs. 0.7 A for IPS8200HQ), supporting solenoids and small motors. |
| RDS(on) | 0.11 Ω (typ., 25 °C) - ensures <110 mW conduction loss at 1 A, reducing thermal stress in dense I/O modules. |
| SPI Speed | 5 MHz - supports high-throughput configuration and fault reporting in real-time PLC cycle times. |
| DC/DC Output | Adjustable 3.3 V or 5 V @ 100 mA - powers VREG, digital isolators, and optocouplers without external LDO. |
| Thermal Protection | Junction shutdown at 160–180 °C + case shutdown at 115–155 °C - provides layered reliability for unventilated enclosures. |
| Diagnostic Pins | PG (Power Good), FAULT (junction/communication fault), TWARN (case overtemp) - open-drain outputs with pull-up to VREG for easy MCU GPIO interfacing. |
Pinout & Package
IPS8200HQ-1 uses a VFQFPN-48L (8 mm × 6 mm, 0.5 mm pitch) thermally enhanced package with exposed VCC-connected tab for PCB heat sinking.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| OUT1–OUT8 | High-side power output | Drives loads connected between OUTx and GND; each independently current-limited to 1.0 A. |
| SEL2 | Interface mode select | High = SPI mode; Low = parallel mode - determines whether IN1–IN8 function as data inputs or SPI signals. |
| SDI/IN5, SDO/IN8, CLK/IN6, SS/IN7 | SPI bus interface | Standard 4-wire SPI (MOSI/MISO/SCLK/SS); supports daisy-chain and MCU freeze detection when SEL2 = H. |
| WD_EN/IN2, WD/IN4 | Watchdog control | WD_EN enables watchdog; WD input clears internal timer on falling edge - prevents firmware lockup in safety-critical I/O. |
| PG, FAULT, TWARN | Open-drain diagnostic outputs | Pull low under fault conditions (e.g., VCC undervoltage, junction overtemp, SPI error) - directly readable by MCU GPIO. |
| VREG | Logic supply rail | Supplies SPI interface, input buffers, and LED matrix; powered internally by DC/DC or externally. |
| COL0/COL1, ROW0–ROW3 | LED matrix drivers | Drive 4×2 LED array (8 LEDs) to indicate ON/OFF state of each output - reduces need for external status indicators. |
| FB, DCVDD, VREF, PHASE, BOOT | DC/DC regulator interface | Enable adjustable 3.3 V/5 V output; FB sets voltage via resistor divider; PHASE/BOOT drive internal buck switch. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Per-channel overload protection | 1.0 A current limit with hysteresis - prevents latch-up during short circuits while allowing brief inrush for capacitive loads. |
| Fast inductive demagnetization | VOUT clamp to VCC−45 V - suppresses flyback spikes up to 52 V, eliminating need for external snubbers on 24 V solenoids. |
| Loss-of-GND detection | Automatic output disable if GND disconnect detected - avoids unsafe floating outputs in field-wiring faults. |
| Integrated 4×2 LED matrix driver | Drives 8 status LEDs with row/column multiplexing - saves 8 GPIOs and simplifies front-panel indicator design. |
| IEC-compliant immunity | Designed to meet IEC61000-4-2 (ESD ±2 kV), -4-4 (EFT ±2 kV), and -4-5 (Surge ±1 kV) - certified for harsh industrial environments. |
Applications
| Programmable Logic Controller (PLC) Digital Output Module | Industrial PC Peripheral I/O Card |
|---|---|
|
Use Scenario: Controlling 24 V DC solenoid valves, relays, and indicator lamps in modular PLC backplanes. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: High-side switch with integrated diagnostics and current limiting - replaces discrete MOSFET + driver + protection circuits.

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar octal high-side driver applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| IPS8100HQ-1 | Single 8-channel device without integrated DC/DC regulator or LED matrix; lower pin count (32-pin VFQFPN). | Lacks on-chip 3.3 V/5 V supply and status LED drivers - requires external regulator and GPIOs for diagnostics. | Select when board space is constrained and external power/indicators are already present. |
| STSPIN840 | 8-channel stepper motor driver with microstepping; no high-side architecture, no PG/FAULT diagnostics, no industrial immunity certification. | Optimized for precision motion control, not general-purpose industrial switching - lacks IEC61000-4-x compliance and load-type flexibility. | Not suitable as functional replacement; only consider for dedicated stepper applications where diagnostics and ruggedness are secondary. |
Compared with IPS8200HQ-1, IPS8100HQ-1 reduces integration but increases system-level component count and layout complexity, while STSPIN840 serves a fundamentally different motor-control function and cannot substitute for high-side relay replacement in PLC or NC I/O.

FAQ
What interface modes does the IPS8200HQ-1 support, and how are they selected?
The IPS8200HQ-1 supports two mutually exclusive interface modes: 4-wire SPI (with daisy-chain and MCU freeze detection) and 8-bit parallel control. Selection is made via the SEL2 pin: logic high enables SPI mode (reconfiguring IN1–IN8 as SDI, SDO, CLK, SS, etc.), while logic low enables parallel mode (IN1–IN8 become direct channel enable inputs). The SEL1 pin further configures SPI word length (8- or 16-bit).
How does the integrated DC/DC regulator operate, and what loads can it power?
The embedded 100 mA buck regulator generates a regulated 3.3 V or 5 V output on the VREG pin, configurable via the FB pin (connect FB to VREG for 3.3 V; use resistor divider for higher voltages). It powers the internal logic, SPI interface, and 4×2 LED matrix. With 100 mA capacity, it can also supply external components such as digital isolators (e.g., Si86xx) or optocouplers - eliminating need for a separate LDO in many I/O designs.
What thermal protection mechanisms are implemented, and how do they differ?
The IPS8200HQ-1 implements two independent thermal protections: per-channel junction shutdown (TTSD = 160–180 °C) and system-level case shutdown (TCSD = 115–155 °C). Junction protection disables only the overheated channel, allowing others to remain operational; case protection disables all overloaded channels while non-overloaded ones continue functioning. Both feature hysteresis (20 °C) to prevent oscillation during recovery.
Can the IPS8200HQ-1 drive inductive loads safely, and what protection features apply?
Yes - the IPS8200HQ-1 is explicitly qualified for inductive loads (solenoids, relays, valves). It includes fast demagnetization via VOUT clamping (down to VCC−45 V), per-channel short-circuit current limiting (1.0 A), and loss-of-GND detection that forces all outputs OFF if ground wiring fails. These features eliminate need for external flyback diodes or snubbers in most 24 V industrial applications.
