Product details
Overview
VN5770AKPTR-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 motor control. It delivers 8.5 A typical output current per channel, 280 mΩ total RDS(on) per bridge leg, and operates up to 36 V supply voltage. Used in DC motor driving for automotive HVAC actuators and seat positioners.
For engineers reviewing the VN5770AKPTR-E datasheet, VN5770AKPTR-E pinout, VN5770AKPTR-E application, or VN5770AKPTR-E equivalent, key selection criteria include integrated current sense ratio (K0 = 850–2120), non-latching thermal shutdown with 7 °C hysteresis, dual high/low-side short-circuit protection, and AEC-Q100 compliance for under-hood deployment.
Technical Context
The device implements a monolithic chipset architecture: dual high-side switches use VIPower M0-5 technology with active power limitation and proportional current sense (ISENSE), while low-side switches employ OMNIFET II with linear current limiting and overvoltage clamping. Each high-side switch features undervoltage shutdown at 4.5 V (±0.5 V hysteresis) and clamp voltage of 41–52 V.
Thermal protection is implemented separately per switch: high-side shutdown triggers at 150–200 °C with reset at 135–140 °C; low-side fault indication occurs via input pin current sink flag. Diagnostic feedback includes analog current sense (0–5 V output) and overtemperature voltage flag (9 V at VCC = 13 V).
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| RDS(on) | 280 mΩ total resistance per H-bridge leg - enables efficient 8.5 A continuous operation with <1.5 W conduction loss at full load |
| IOUT (typ) | 8.5 A per channel - supports DC motors up to ~100 W in 12 V automotive systems |
| VCC max | 36 V - accommodates load-dump transients per ISO 7637-2 Pulse 5a without external clamping |
| Current sense ratio K0 | 850–2120 (IOUT/ISENSE) - provides scalable analog feedback for closed-loop current regulation across temperature |
| Tj operating range | −40 °C to +150 °C - qualified for engine bay and transmission control unit environments |
| ESD rating (HBM) | 4000 V on INPUT/CURRENT SENSE pins - exceeds AEC-Q100 Class 2 requirements for robustness in noisy vehicle harnesses |
| Thermal shutdown hysteresis | 7 °C - prevents oscillation during thermal stress and ensures stable recovery after overload |
Pinout & Package
Package: SO-28 (Small Outline, 28-pin, body size 17.9 mm × 7.5 mm, 1.27 mm pitch), thermally enhanced with exposed leadframe for junction-to-case thermal resistance of 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 motor winding or load return path |
| 2 | INPUT 3 | CMOS-compatible logic input (VIH = 2.1 V) controlling low-side switch 3 - supports direct MCU GPIO drive |
| 5, 10, 19, 24 | VCC | Main power rail for high-side switches and internal bias - must be decoupled with ≥10 µF ceramic near pins 5/10 |
| 6 | GND | Common ground reference for high-side drivers - requires low-inductance connection to PCB ground plane |
| 7, 8 | INPUT 1 / INPUT 2 | Independent TTL/CMOS inputs for high-side switches - enable independent PWM control of each H-bridge half |
| 9 | CURRENT SENSE | Analog output delivering ISENSE = IOUT/K - used for real-time current monitoring and overcurrent detection |
| 12, 14, 15, 18 | DRAIN 4 | Power output terminal for low-side switch 4 - forms second half of H-bridge with DRAIN 3 |
| 13 | INPUT 4 | Logic input for low-side switch 4 - complements INPUT 3 to support full-bridge commutation |
| 16, 17, 20, 21, 22, 23, 26, 27 | SOURCE x | Source terminals tied to GND or motor return - provide Kelvin sensing paths for accurate current measurement |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Inrush current management | Active power limitation on high-side switches prevents fuse blowing during motor startup surge |
| Proportional load current sense | Factory-trimmed K-ratio (850–2120) enables ±5% current measurement accuracy without external shunt |
| Non-latching thermal shutdown | Auto-recovery after cooling below TR (135–140 °C) eliminates need for system reset after transient overload |
| Short-circuit protection | Hardware-limited IlimH = 6–12 A and IlimL = 3.5 A prevent destructive failure during wiring faults |
| Low standby current | 2–5 µA quiescent draw at VCC = 13 V enables always-on applications like door lock controllers |

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 |
|---|---|---|---|
| STSPIN32F0B | Integrated 32-bit ARM Cortex-M0 MCU + gate drivers - no analog current sense, relies on external shunt | Requires firmware development for motor control; lacks built-in thermal hysteresis and overvoltage clamp | Choose when system-level intelligence (FOC, sensorless commutation) is needed over plug-and-play diagnostics |
| TPS2H160-Q1 | Single-channel 60 V, 160 mΩ high-side switch - no low-side integration or current sense output | Needs external low-side FETs and separate sense amplifier; supports higher voltage but not H-bridge ready | Prefer for distributed switching where channel independence and 60 V capability outweigh integration benefits |
Compared with STSPIN32F0B and TPS2H160-Q1, the VN5770AKPTR-E uniquely combines quad-channel H-bridge topology, factory-calibrated analog current sense, and automotive-grade thermal protection in one SO-28 package-reducing BOM count by 7+ discrete components versus discrete solutions.

FAQ
What is the maximum continuous output current per channel?
The VN5770AKPTR-E supports 8.5 A typical continuous output current per channel under specified thermal conditions (Tc ≤ 105 °C, 36 V VCC). Derating applies above 105 °C case temperature per Figure 19; at 125 °C case, max current drops to ~5.2 A due to thermal limiting.
How does the current sense function work and what external components are required?
The CURRENT SENSE pin outputs an analog current (ISENSE) proportional to load current (IOUT) via factory-trimmed gain K0–K3. A single external 3.9 kΩ pull-up resistor to VCC converts ISENSE to 0–5 V voltage for ADC reading. No op-amp or calibration is needed for basic monitoring.
Can the VN5770AKPTR-E drive inductive loads without external flyback diodes?
Yes - both high-side and low-side switches integrate active overvoltage clamping (Vclamp = 41–52 V for high-side; internally clamped for low-side). This eliminates need for external freewheeling diodes in most 12/24 V DC motor applications, reducing board space and cost.
Is the SO-28 package RoHS and AEC-Q100 compliant?
Yes - the VN5770AKPTR-E carries ECOPACK® certification (lead-free, RoHS-compliant) and is qualified per AEC-Q100 Grade 1 (−40 °C to +125 °C ambient) with full documentation including HTOL, TC, and ESD testing per Rev 7 datasheet (DocID17772).
