Product details
Overview
VN5770AKP-E from STMicroelectronics is a quad-channel automotive-grade smart power solid-state relay in SO-28 package, integrating two VIPower M0-5 high-side switches and two VIPower M0-3 OMNIFET II low-side switches for complete H-bridge DC motor control. It delivers 8.5 A typical output current per channel, 280 mΩ total on-resistance per bridge leg, 36 V max supply voltage, and proportional analog current sensing with thermal shutdown indication - used in automotive seat/mirror actuators and industrial valve drivers.
For engineers reviewing the VN5770AKP-E datasheet, VN5770AKP-E pinout, VN5770AKP-E application, or VN5770AKP-E equivalent, key selection criteria include its dual high-side + dual low-side topology, integrated short-circuit and overtemperature protection with diagnostic feedback, current sense ratio (K₀ = 850–2120), and AEC-Q100-compliant operation up to 150 °C junction temperature.
Technical Context
The device implements a monolithic three-chip architecture: dual high-side switches use VIPower M0-5 technology with non-latching thermal shutdown (TTSD = 150–200 °C, THYST = 7 °C) and active power limitation; dual low-side switches use OMNIFET II with linear current limiting, overvoltage clamping, and fault signaling via input pin current rise. Each high-side switch features undervoltage shutdown (VUSD = 4.5 V ±0.5 V hysteresis) and output clamp (41–52 V).
Current sensing is implemented via a dedicated analog pin (CURRENT SENSE) delivering ISENSE proportional to IOUT across four calibrated gain ranges (K₀–K₃), enabling real-time load monitoring and thermal fault detection through voltage flagging (VSENSEH = 9 V at overtemperature). Protection logic operates independently per channel without external components.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| VCC Range | 4.5 V to 36 V - supports 12 V automotive battery systems with transient tolerance up to 41 V. |
| IOUT (typ) | 8.5 A - continuous DC output current per channel under thermal derating conditions. |
| RDS(on) Total | 280 mΩ - combined on-resistance of one high-side + one low-side switch in bridge leg, defining conduction loss. |
| Current Sense Ratio | K₀ = 850–2120 - IOUT/ISENSE scaling factor enabling accurate load current measurement from 0.08 A to 5 A. |
| Thermal Shutdown | TTSD = 150–200 °C, TR = TTSD − 7 °C - non-latching hysteresis prevents oscillation during overload recovery. |
| ESD Rating | 4000 V HBM on INPUT/CURRENT SENSE pins - meets automotive robustness requirements for board-level handling. |
| Switching Energy | WON = 0.16 mJ, WOFF = 0.08 mJ - quantifies dynamic losses during turn-on/turn-off at RL = 4.3 Ω load. |
Pinout & Package
Package: SO-28 (Small Outline, 28-pin, body size 17.9 mm × 7.5 mm, 1.27 mm pitch), thermally enhanced for high-power switching with Rthj-case = 10 °C/W (high-side) and 7 °C/W (low-side).
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1, 3, 25, 28 | DRAIN 3 | Power output terminal for low-side switch 3 - connects to load return path in half/full-bridge configurations. |
| 2 | INPUT 3 | Logic-level control input for low-side switch 3 - TTL/CMOS compatible (VIH = 2.1 V, VIL = 0.9 V). |
| 5, 10, 19, 24 | VCC | Main power supply rail for high-side switches and internal bias - must be decoupled near pins 5/10/19/24. |
| 6 | GND | Common ground reference for high-side driver circuitry - separate from low-side source connections. |
| 7, 8 | INPUT 1 / INPUT 2 | Independent logic inputs for dual high-side switches - enable independent channel control in H-bridge mode. |
| 9 | CURRENT SENSE | Analog output pin delivering ISENSE ∝ IOUT - used with external resistor (e.g., 3.9 kΩ) to generate voltage feedback. |
| 12, 14, 15, 18 | DRAIN 4 | Power output terminal for low-side switch 4 - complements DRAIN 3 for dual low-side drive capability. |
| 13 | INPUT 4 | Logic input for low-side switch 4 - allows full quad-switch control without external level shifters. |
| 16, 17, 20, 21, 22, 23, 26, 27 | SOURCE x | Source terminals for respective switches - require PCB copper pour for thermal dissipation and low-impedance return paths. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Integrated H-bridge power stage | Two high-side + two low-side VIPower switches in single SO-28 package eliminates discrete layout complexity and timing skew. |
| Proportional current sensing | Four-gain-range analog sense (K₀–K₃) enables precise load monitoring from milliamp to 5 A without external amplifiers. |
| Thermal fault signaling | High-side overtemperature indicated by VSENSEH = 9 V; low-side fault signaled by elevated input pin current (fault sink flag). |
| Active power limitation | Dynamic current limiting during overload prevents destructive power dissipation before thermal shutdown intervenes. |
| AEC-Q100 Grade 0 compliance | Qualified for −40 °C to +150 °C junction operation with 100% production test coverage per automotive reliability standards. |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar quad-channel smart power switch applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| STSPIN32F0A | Integrated 32-bit MCU + 3-phase gate driver; no analog current sense; requires external shunt and ADC. | Targeted at sensorless BLDC control, not DC H-bridge; lacks built-in short-circuit protection per channel. | Select when firmware-defined motor control algorithms and field-oriented control are required over simple relay replacement. |
| TPS2H160-Q1 | Single-channel 60 V, 160 mΩ high-side switch; no low-side integration; no current sense output. | Requires four separate ICs plus external logic for H-bridge; lacks thermal hysteresis and proportional diagnostics. | Select only for non-bridge applications needing ultra-low RDS(on) and independent channel isolation. |
Compared with STSPIN32F0A and TPS2H160-Q1, the VN5770AKP-E uniquely combines dual high-side + dual low-side topology, calibrated analog current sensing, and per-channel thermal/short-circuit protection in one AEC-Q100-qualified SO-28 package - eliminating external protection components and simplifying functional safety validation.

FAQ
What is the maximum continuous output current per channel?
The VN5770AKP-E supports 8.5 A typical continuous DC output current per channel under specified thermal conditions (Tc = 25 °C, Rthj-case = 10 °C/W for high-side). Actual current capability depends on PCB copper area, ambient temperature, and duty cycle - derating curves in Figure 19 show 4 A sustainable at Tc = 70 °C.
How does the CURRENT SENSE pin indicate thermal shutdown?
During high-side overtemperature, the CURRENT SENSE pin outputs VSENSEH = 9 V (with 3.9 kΩ load) instead of the proportional IOUT-derived voltage. This flag is distinct from normal operation and remains active until junction temperature falls below TR (TTSD − 7 °C), providing unambiguous fault signaling without software polling.
Can VN5770AKP-E drive inductive loads without external flyback diodes?
Yes - the device integrates internal overvoltage clamping (Vclamp = 41–52 V) and demagnetization energy handling (VDEMAG = VCC−41 V) for inductive loads. External diodes are unnecessary for standard 12 V automotive inductors, though layout must minimize parasitic inductance to avoid voltage overshoot beyond clamp limits.
What is the purpose of the N.C. pins (4, 11)?
Pins 4 and 11 are No-Connect terminals - internally unconnected and electrically isolated. They must remain unconnected on PCB to prevent unintended coupling or mechanical stress; routing traces or vias to these pads is prohibited per ST's mechanical design guidelines in Section 7.1.
