Product details
Overview
SPSB0815-TR from STMicroelectronics is an automotive power management IC integrating dual LDO regulators (V1 = 5 V / 250 mA, V2 = 5 V or 3.3 V tracker), four 0.14 A high-side drivers with open-load/overcurrent diagnosis, ISO 11898-2/2016 CAN-FD transceiver, and programmable window watchdog - all in a QFN32L Epad (5.0×5.0×1.0 mm) package. It serves as central power & communication hub in body control modules requiring ASIL-aware fail-safe operation.
For engineers reviewing the SPSB0815-TR datasheet, SPSB0815-TR pinout, SPSB0815-TR application, or SPSB0815-TR equivalent, key selection criteria include its AEC-Q100 qualification, dual-regulator tracking capability, integrated CAN-FD + LIN (ISO 17987-4), 15 µA standby current, and diagnostic-rich HS driver interface for automotive ECU power domain control.
Technical Context
The device implements two independent LDOs: V1 delivers fixed 5 V at up to 250 mA for MCU/CAN supply with overvoltage protection and thermal shutdown (TSD1 = 165–185 °C); V2 operates as either standalone 5 V/3.3 V LDO or precision tracker (±20 mV) of V1, configurable via SPI register CR2. Both regulators support ceramic output capacitors ≥1 µF and require no electrolytic capacitors.
Four HS drivers feature RON = 7 Ω, 1.25 A absolute max current, open-load detection, short-circuit protection, and dedicated current monitor (CM) output multiplexed per channel. The CAN-FD physical layer complies with ISO 11898-2/2016 and SAE J2284, includes local/bus failure diagnosis, and draws supply from VCANSUP (0.3–5.25 V), while LIN (on SPSB0815) meets ISO 17987-4/2016.

Pinout & Package
SPSB0815-TR uses a thermally enhanced QFN32L Epad package (5.0 × 5.0 × 1.0 mm, exposed thermal pad). The Epad must be soldered to PCB ground plane for thermal and electrical integrity. Pin 1 is located at top-left corner adjacent to WU1 marking.

| LIN | LIN bus I/O | ISO 17987-4/2016 compliant transceiver for low-speed vehicle network communication |
| VSREG | Main supply input | Feeds internal regulators, LIN/CAN, wake-up circuitry; requires ceramic + electrolytic capacitor |
| VS | Power stage supply | Supplies OUT1–OUT4; external reverse battery protection required |
| DIAGN | Failsafe error signal | Active-low open-drain output indicating latched faults (thermal, regulator, watchdog, etc.) |
| NINT | Interrupt notification | Push-pull output signaling errors, warnings, or wake-up events to host MCU |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar automotive power management applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| SPSB0813-TR | V1 = 3.3 V (not 5 V); LIN transceiver included; V2 = 3.3 V only; no CAN-FD | Targeted for 3.3 V MCU domains without CAN-FD requirement; lower V1 current (200 mA vs 250 mA) | Select when system MCU runs at 3.3 V and CAN-FD is unnecessary - reduces cost and simplifies layout |
| TLE9261-2QX | Single 5 V LDO (300 mA); no V2 tracker; 4 HS drivers (0.5 A); no integrated LIN/CAN; separate transceiver required | Requires external CAN/LIN PHY; lacks V2 tracking and programmable watchdog; higher HS current but no CM output | Choose for cost-sensitive designs where external transceivers are already present and V2 tracking is not needed |
Compared with SPSB0813-TR, SPSB0815-TR provides higher V1 current and integrated CAN-FD - critical for modern gateways. Versus TLE9261-2QX, it consolidates communication PHYs and adds V2 tracking, reducing board area and software complexity at the expense of slightly higher quiescent current.

FAQ
What is the maximum allowable voltage on the VS pin?
The VS pin supports DC supply voltages from −0.3 V to 28 V under normal operation, and up to 40 V for transient load-dump conditions lasting less than 400 ms. External reverse-battery protection is mandatory, and a ceramic capacitor must be placed as close as possible to PGND to ensure stability during high-current HS driver switching.
How does the V2 tracker mode function in SPSB0815-TR?
In tracker mode (V2_TKR = 1), V2 precisely follows V1's output voltage within ±20 mV tolerance, enabling matched rail sequencing for sensitive peripherals. This mode is only enabled when both V1 and V2 are configured for 5 V output (Configuration #4). V2 remains disabled if V1 is below 4.5 V or if V2_TKR is cleared.
Can the LIN transceiver operate independently of the CAN-FD interface?
Yes - the LIN transceiver (ISO 17987-4/2016 compliant) operates independently using its own LIN pin and internal biasing. It remains functional even when CAN is disabled or in fault state. However, both share the same VSREG supply and thermal domain, so simultaneous full-load operation requires thermal derating per DS14048 Section 2.3.
What diagnostic capabilities are available for the high-side drivers?
All four HS drivers support real-time current monitoring via the multiplexed CM pin, open-load detection (via voltage threshold comparison), and short-circuit protection with automatic shutdown. Fault status is latched in SR2 register bits (OUT1SC–OUT4SC) and signaled on DIAGN and NINT pins - enabling both polled and interrupt-driven diagnostics without external components.
