Product details
Overview
MPQ6615GQKTE-AEC1-P from Monolithic Power Systems is an AEC-Q100 Grade 1 qualified H-bridge DC motor driver IC with four integrated N-channel MOSFETs (11 mΩ RDS(ON) at TJ = 25°C), 4.75–40 V input voltage range, 8 A continuous output current capability, and integrated bidirectional current-sense amplifiers. It delivers precise control for automotive brushed DC motors in seat actuators, door latches, and window regulators.
For engineers reviewing the MPQ6615GQKTE-AEC1-P datasheet, MPQ6615GQKTE-AEC1-P pinout, MPQ6615GQKTE-AEC1-P application, or MPQ6615GQKTE-AEC1-P equivalent, key selection considerations include its 100% duty-cycle support via internal charge pump, latch-off/retry OCP mode selection via OCMD pin, dual-phase current sensing (SOA/SOB), and wettable-flank TQFN-26 package for automated optical inspection.
Technical Context
The MPQ6615GQKTE-AEC1-P implements a fully integrated H-bridge with independent gate drivers, internal charge pump (2 MHz switching, VVCP = VIN + 5 V), and low-side gate regulator (VG ≈ 5.5 V). Its three configurable input modes (selected by INM[1:0]) support EN/PWM, ENBL/DIR/BRK, or INH/INL control schemes - enabling flexible microcontroller interface without external logic.
Protection architecture includes UVLO (4.4 V rising threshold, 480 mV hysteresis), OVP (48 V rising threshold), thermal shutdown (150°C, 25°C hysteresis), and dual-path over-current detection (HS/LS thresholds at 25 A typ, 0.4 µs deglitch). Current sensing uses matched internal amplifiers with phase-specific CS ratios (1/11000 A/A typ for Phase A, 1/10500 A/A typ for Phase B) and ±20 µA offset.
Key Specifications

| 15 SOA | Phase A current-sense output | Sources/sinks current proportional to IOUT,A; connects to ADC via RREF for voltage conversion. |
| 16 SOB | Phase B current-sense output | Same function as SOA but for Phase B; independent ratio and offset specs ensure dual-motor monitoring. |
| 17 OCMD | OCP mode selection | GND = latch-off; open/high = auto-retry after 2 ms; enables fail-safe behavior per system requirements. |
| 18 GND | Analog ground | Reference for logic and sense circuitry; separate from PGND to minimize noise coupling. |
| 19 VCP | Charge pump output | Supplies high-side gate drive; requires 1 µF/10 V X7R cap between VCP and VIN. |
| 20–21 CP1, CP2 | Charge pump capacitor terminals | Connect 100 nF X7R cap rated ≥VIN; forms flying capacitor for bootstrap voltage generation. |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar H-bridge motor driver applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |

FAQ
What is the maximum allowable junction temperature for continuous operation?
The MPQ6615GQKTE-AEC1-P has a maximum junction temperature of +125°C for continuous operation under AEC-Q100 Grade 1 conditions. Thermal shutdown activates at +150°C with 25°C hysteresis, ensuring safe recovery before resuming drive. PCB layout must maintain θJA ≤ 21.4°C/W on a 4-layer board to sustain 8 A output at 125°C ambient.
How does the OCMD pin affect fault recovery behavior?
The OCMD pin selects over-current protection mode: tied to GND enables latch-off (device remains disabled until VIN drops below UVLO threshold); left open or pulled high enables auto-retry (outputs disable for 2 ms then re-enable). This allows system-level choice between fail-safe shutdown and self-recovering operation based on motor fault tolerance requirements.
Can the MPQ6615GQKTE-AEC1-P drive a single motor in H-bridge mode using only one phase?
Yes - the device supports single-motor operation using either Phase A (SA/SOA) or Phase B (SB/SOB) independently. When configured in ENBL/DIR mode (INM[1:0] = 01), ENBL enables the full bridge while DIR controls direction, and BRK/BMOD provides active braking. Both phases share identical electrical specs and protection features.
What external capacitors are mandatory for stable operation?
Three capacitor types are mandatory: (1) 4.7–10 µF X7R ceramic between VG and GND; (2) 1 µF/10 V X7R between VCP and VIN; (3) 100 nF X7R between CP1 and CP2. All must be placed within 2 mm of respective pins per MPS layout guidelines to prevent charge pump instability and gate drive collapse.
Is the current-sense output polarity reversible for bidirectional motor current measurement?
Yes - SOA and SOB are true bidirectional current-sense outputs: they source current when motor current flows from SA/SB to PGND (forward direction) and sink current when current flows from PGND to SA/SB (reverse direction). With proper RREF/VREF termination, VSOx swings above and below VREF, enabling full four-quadrant torque control.
Does the device support PWM frequencies beyond 20 kHz?
Yes - the MPQ6615GQKTE-AEC1-P supports PWM frequencies up to 100 kHz, though operating current increases with frequency (e.g., 60 mA at 100 kHz, VIN = 24 V, TA = 25°C). For noise-sensitive applications like power windows, 20–25 kHz is recommended to avoid audible whine while maintaining efficiency.
How is thermal performance affected by PCB copper area and via placement?
Thermal resistance θJA drops from 21.4°C/W (baseline 4-layer) to ≤15°C/W with ≥400 mm² of 2-oz copper on top/bottom layers plus ≥12 thermal vias (0.3 mm diameter) under the exposed pad. Insufficient copper or vias causes premature thermal shutdown at <6 A continuous load, even at 25°C ambient.
