Product details
Overview
L9805E from STMicroelectronics is an integrated smart power motor driver combining an 8-bit ST7 MCU core, on-chip H-bridge (90 mΩ RDS(on)), CAN 2.0B controller with integrated bus transceiver, K-line interface, 10-bit ADC, EEPROM, and dual PWM generators - all in a single HiQUAD64 package. It targets automotive body control modules, electric seat/mirror actuators, and HVAC blower drives requiring embedded motor control with communication and diagnostics.
For engineers reviewing the L9805E datasheet, L9805E pinout, L9805E application, or L9805E equivalent, this device delivers co-located processing, power switching, analog sensing, and CAN/K-line connectivity - enabling compact, self-contained motor node designs without external MCU or transceivers.
Technical Context
The L9805E integrates a fully static 8-bit ST7 CPU core operating at up to 8 MHz internal clock (16 MHz oscillator input), with dedicated peripherals tightly coupled to the H-bridge: two 16-bit timers support input capture for rotor position feedback and output compare for precise PWM timing; dual independent PWM modules generate complementary gate drive signals with programmable dead-time control.
Its CAN peripheral complies with ISO 11898-2 A/B passive specifications and includes full protocol handling (message filtering, error management, automatic retransmission), while the integrated K-line transceiver supports ISO 9141-2 diagnostics - both sharing physical I/O resources with configurable direction control and slew-rate limiting for EMC robustness.

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar smart power motor driver applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| L9822D | Same ST7 core and H-bridge but lacks integrated CAN; adds SPI interface and higher ADC resolution (12-bit). | Suitable for non-networked actuators where SPI-connected master MCU handles communication. | Select when CAN is unnecessary and higher analog precision or SPI-based system architecture is preferred. |
| MC33886 | Standalone H-bridge (no MCU); 5 V logic interface; 3.0 mΩ RDS(on); requires external microcontroller and CAN transceiver. | Used in distributed architectures where MCU and driver are physically separated or require independent scaling. | Choose when maximum power efficiency (>95% at 10 A) and thermal performance are prioritized over integration density. |
Compared with L9822D, the L9805E trades ADC resolution and SPI for native CAN/K-line, making it optimal for distributed vehicle networks; versus MC33886, it sacrifices peak current capability for complete system-on-chip functionality - reducing component count and validation effort in mid-power (<2 A) automotive nodes.

FAQ
What is the maximum continuous current the L9805E H-bridge can deliver?
The L9805E H-bridge supports 2 A continuous output current at TJ = 150°C with VBAT = 18 V and RDS(on) = 90 mΩ (typ.), verified per thermal characteristics Table 18. Derating applies above 100°C ambient; peak pulsed current reaches 4 A for ≤10 ms with 10% duty cycle.
Does the L9805E require an external crystal oscillator?
No - the L9805E includes an internal RC oscillator and supports optional external crystal (up to 16 MHz) for higher timing accuracy. The oscillator supervisor monitors crystal activity and triggers reset if oscillation fails, ensuring deterministic startup behavior in automotive environments.
Can the L9805E operate in standalone mode without CAN or K-line communication?
Yes - the MCU core, ADC, timers, and H-bridge function independently of CAN/K-line. All peripherals remain fully accessible via internal registers; communication interfaces are optional and can be disabled in software to reduce power consumption or simplify design.
How is EEPROM endurance specified for the L9805E?
The L9805E's 128-byte EEPROM is rated for ≥100,000 write/erase cycles and data retention of ≥40 years at 25°C (per Table 23). Wear leveling must be implemented in firmware; no hardware wear-leveling logic is integrated.
