Product details
Overview
VN5T006ASPTR-E from STMicroelectronics is a single-channel automotive high-side driver IC with integrated analog current sense, designed for 24 V battery systems. It delivers 115 A typical current limiting, 6 mΩ on-state resistance at 25 °C, and operates across 8–36 V supply range. Used in engine control modules to drive solenoids and fuel injectors requiring precise overload diagnostics and latch-off protection.
For engineers reviewing the VN5T006ASPTR-E datasheet, VN5T006ASPTR-E pinout, VN5T006ASPTR-E application, or VN5T006ASPTR-E equivalent, this page provides verified pin functions, real-world diagnostic timing (e.g., 300–600 µs current sense delay), thermal shutdown behavior (150–200 °C trip), ISO 7637-2 pulse immunity (Class C up to Pulse 5b), and AEC-Q100 qualification evidence.
Technical Context
This device implements VIPower M0-7 technology with active power limitation and thermal cycling management. Its analog current sense (K₀ = 3930–19850 A/A) supports wide-range proportional load monitoring, while fault reporting via CS pin includes open-load detection (VOL = 2–4 V), short-to-VCC response (<1.8 ms), and thermal latch-off reset via FR_Stby pulse (2–24 µs).
The PowerSO-10 package enables low RthJC = 0.8 °C/W for sustained 10 A operation, and its reverse-battery protection uses self-switching MOSFET architecture. Undervoltage shutdown (5 V ±0.5 V hysteresis) and clamp voltage (58–70 V) ensure robustness against load dump transients per ISO 7637-2 Pulse 1 and 5b.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Supply voltage range | 8–36 V DC - supports full automotive battery range including cold-crank (8 V) and load dump (36 V nominal) |
| Max transient VCC | 58 V - clamps ISO 7637-2 Pulse 1 (−450 V) and Pulse 5b (+174 V) with external suppression |
| RON (typ.) | 6 mΩ at 25 °C - enables <100 mW conduction loss at 10 A, critical for thermally constrained ECUs |
| ILIM (typ.) | 115 A - limits peak fault current during short-circuit, preventing wire harness damage |
| Current sense ratio K₀ | 3930–19850 A/A - enables accurate 0.6–10 A load monitoring with <±30% drift over −40 to 150 °C |
| tDSENSE2H | 300–600 µs - defines diagnostic latency for overload detection, enabling fast ECU intervention |
| Thermal shutdown | 150–200 °C - latches off output until FR_Stby reset, preventing thermal runaway in sealed enclosures |
Pinout & Package
Package: PowerSO-10 (exposed die pad, 10-pin surface-mount, JEDEC MO-247 variant). Thermal performance optimized with RthJC = 0.8 °C/W and footprint-compatible PCB copper area scaling (RthJA = 45 °C/W at 0 cm² → 27 °C/W at 8 cm²).
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| VCC | Battery supply input | Accepts 8–36 V with internal 58 V clamp; connects to vehicle battery rail with external TVS for ISO 7637-2 compliance |
| OUT | Power output terminal | Drives high-side loads (e.g., solenoids); rated for 115 A short-circuit current with self-limiting behavior |
| GND | Ground reference | Low-impedance return path for load current and sense circuitry; must be routed separately from signal GND |
| IN | CMOS-compatible control input | Hysteresis (0.25 V) prevents noise-induced switching; compatible with 3.0 V MCU I/Os |
| CS | Analog current sense output | Sinks proportional current (ISENSE = IOUT/K) for real-time load monitoring and fault reporting |
| FR_Stby | Fault reset & standby enable | Pulse-low resets thermal/overload latch-off; held low with all inputs disables outputs and enters ultra-low-IS (2 µA) standby |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| AEC-Q100 qualified | Grade 0 (−40 to +150 °C junction), validated for under-hood automotive use per stress test requirements |
| Proportional current sense | 6-point calibrated K-ratio table (K₀–K₆) supports 0.6–20 A sensing with <±30% total error over temperature |
| Off-state open-load detection | Identifies disconnected loads via VOUT > 2 V threshold without external components |
| Output short-to-VCC detection | Responds within 180–1800 µs at turn-off and <50 µs after FR_Stby activation |
| Reverse battery protection | Self-switching MOSFET blocks −32 V reverse polarity without external diode or FET |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar high-side driver applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| TPS4H160-Q1 | Higher RON (12 mΩ), no analog current sense - uses digital SPI reporting | Requires MCU with SPI interface; lacks proportional analog output for legacy ADC-based systems | Select when system already uses SPI diagnostics and needs channel multiplexing |
| IPS1025H | Lower ILIM (60 A), same PowerSO-10 package, but no reverse battery protection | Needs external reverse-polarity diode; unsuitable for direct battery-connected nodes | Select for cost-sensitive non-battery-direct applications where reverse protection is handled upstream |
Compared with TPS4H160-Q1 and IPS1025H, VN5T006ASPTR-E uniquely combines AEC-Q100 Grade 0 rating, 6 mΩ RON, analog current sense with multi-point K-ratio calibration, and integrated reverse-battery blocking - making it optimal for safety-critical, thermally constrained, and legacy-ADC-equipped automotive nodes.

FAQ
What is the purpose of the FR_Stby pin?
The FR_Stby pin serves dual functions: a low-level pulse (≥2 µs) resets thermal or overload latch-off, restoring normal operation; when held low with all IN pins, it forces the device into ultra-low-power standby mode (IS = 2 µA). This enables ECU-controlled sleep/wake sequencing without external power gating.
How does the current sense accuracy vary with load current?
Current sense accuracy is defined by six calibrated K-ratios (K₀–K₆) covering 0.6–20 A ranges. At 0.6 A, K₀ = 3930–19850 A/A with ±30% drift over temperature; at 20 A, K₆ = 6960–8330 A/A with only ±8% drift. This multi-point calibration ensures <5% full-scale error across the entire operational range.
Can VN5T006ASPTR-E drive inductive loads without external flyback protection?
No. While the device integrates active demagnetization energy handling (EMAX = 880 mJ at 10 mH), external freewheeling diodes or snubbers are required for inductive loads exceeding its specified Lsmax = 40 µH in short-circuit condition. The internal clamp protects VCC, not the OUT node, during inductive kickback.
What PCB layout practices maximize thermal performance?
To achieve RthJA ≤ 27 °C/W, use ≥8 cm² of 70 µm copper on top/bottom layers connected via ≥20 thermal vias (0.3 mm diameter, 1.2 mm pitch) under the exposed die pad. Avoid solder mask over thermal pads and maintain ≥2 mm clearance from adjacent components to prevent hot-spot coupling.
