Product details
Overview
VN610SP13TR from STMicroelectronics is a single-channel high-side solid-state relay (SSR) designed for driving resistive or inductive loads with one side grounded. It delivers 45A output current, features 10mΩ RDS(on) at 25°C, integrates proportional analog current sense (K = 4400 typ.), and provides under-voltage (4V), over-voltage (36V), thermal (150°C), and short-circuit protection - used in automotive body control modules for headlamp or fan power switching.
For engineers reviewing the VN610SP13TR datasheet, VN610SP13TR pinout, VN610SP13TR application, or VN610SP13TR equivalent, key selection criteria include its PowerSO-10 package thermal performance (Rthj-case = 0.9°C/W), CMOS-compatible input logic levels (VIL = 1.25V, VIH = 3.25V), and integrated diagnostics including load-current-proportional sense output and automatic shutdown on ground loss.
Technical Context
The VN610SP13TR implements a VIPower M0-3 monolithic high-side switch architecture with active voltage clamping (41–55V), programmable current limitation (45–120A depending on VCC and temperature), and thermal shutdown with 15°C hysteresis. Its internal driver includes reverse-battery protection and loss-of-ground detection that forces automatic turn-off.
It delivers analog current sense via an external resistor (RSENSE) with three calibrated gain ranges (K1–K3) across 1.5–45A, supporting real-time load monitoring without external shunts. Switching behavior is characterized by 30µs typical turn-on/turn-off delay and controlled dV/dt slopes to suppress EMI during inductive load commutation.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| RDS(on) | 10 mΩ max at IOUT = 1.5A, Tj = 25°C - enables low conduction loss and <1W dissipation at 45A continuous (with heatsinking) |
| Output current | 45 A continuous - rated for sustained automotive loads like HVAC blowers or radiator fans |
| VCC range | 5.5–36 V - supports 12V/24V battery systems with transient tolerance up to 41V absolute max |
| Current sense ratio K | 4400 typ. (IOUT/ISENSE) - yields ~1mA sense current per 4.4A load, enabling precise monitoring with standard ADC inputs |
| Thermal shutdown | 150°C junction trip with 135°C reset - ensures safe operation under overload while allowing automatic recovery after cooling |
| Input logic compatibility | CMOS: VIL ≤ 1.25V, VIH ≥ 3.25V - interfaces directly with 3.3V/5V microcontrollers without level-shifting |
| Protection functions | Under-voltage (4V), over-voltage (36V), thermal, short-circuit, reverse battery, and loss-of-ground - eliminates need for external protection circuitry |
Pinout & Package
Package: PowerSO-10 - surface-mount, thermally enhanced 10-pin package with exposed die pad for low Rthj-case (0.9°C/W) and high-power handling.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1 (OUTPUT) | High-side power output | Switched load connection; carries full 45A current; internally clamped to VCC + 41V during inductive flyback |
| 2 (GND) | Power ground reference | Device substrate and thermal path; disconnecting triggers immediate shutdown to prevent latch-up |
| 3 (INPUT) | Digital control input | CMOS-compatible enable signal; 1µA leakage, 0.5V hysteresis prevents noise-induced toggling | 4 (CURRENT SENSE) | Analog current monitor output | Current-source output proportional to load current; requires external RSENSE to generate voltage for ADC sampling |
| 5 (N.C.) | No connect | Internally unconnected; must be left floating or tied to GND per ST recommendation |
| 6 (N.C.) | No connect | Internally unconnected; must be left floating or tied to GND per ST recommendation |
| 7 (VCC) | Supply voltage input | Primary power rail (5.5–36V); includes active clamp diode to absorb ISO7637 transients |
| 8 (OUTPUT) | Redundant output terminal | Second bond wire to same internal drain node; improves current sharing and thermal distribution in PCB layout |
| 9 (OUTPUT) | Redundant output terminal | Third bond wire to same internal drain node; reduces parasitic inductance and enhances reliability under surge |
| 10 (OUTPUT) | Redundant output terminal | Fourth bond wire to same internal drain node; supports high-current routing with minimal voltage drop |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Proportional current sense | Three-point calibrated gain (K1, K2, K3) across 1.5–45A with ±6% drift over -40°C to 150°C - enables accurate closed-loop load monitoring without calibration |
| Loss-of-ground detection | Automatic shutdown within microseconds if GND pin disconnects - prevents destructive shoot-through in multi-driver systems |
| ISO7637-2 transient immunity | Withstands Pulse 1 (−100V), Pulse 2a (+100V), Pulse 3a/b (±150V) without latch-up or parameter shift - meets automotive EMC requirements out-of-box |
| Very low standby consumption | 10 µA max ICC in off-state at 13V - suitable for always-on vehicle modules requiring ultra-low quiescent current |
| Reverse battery protection | Integrated GND-line protection network tolerates −14V applied to VCC - eliminates need for external series diode or MOSFET |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar high-side driver applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| STVN7016AJR | Lower 16A rating, SO-8 package, no integrated current sense - requires external shunt and op-amp | Suitable for space-constrained PCBs but lacks diagnostic capability for predictive maintenance | Select when cost and footprint are prioritized over diagnostics and >30A capability |
| Infineon BTS716G | 40A rating, PG-TO263-7 package, integrated current sense with fixed 1:2000 ratio - less flexible gain calibration than VN610SP | Compatible with similar automotive loads but offers narrower VCC range (5.5–28V) and lower transient immunity | Select when using Infineon ecosystem tools or needing tighter production lot consistency on sense accuracy |
Compared with STVN7016AJR and BTS716G, the VN610SP13TR uniquely combines 45A capacity, PowerSO-10 thermal performance, multi-range programmable current sense, and comprehensive automotive-grade protection - making it optimal for high-power, diagnostic-enabled body control nodes where reliability and functional safety are critical.

FAQ
What is the maximum continuous output current rating for VN610SP13TR?
The VN610SP13TR is rated for 45A continuous output current under specified thermal conditions (Tc ≤ 25°C with adequate PCB copper area). Derating applies above 25°C case temperature per the ILIM vs. Tcase curve in Figure 13; at 100°C case, current limit drops to approximately 75A due to thermal foldback, but continuous operation remains limited to 45A for reliability.
How does the current sense function work, and what external components are required?
The CURRENT SENSE pin delivers a current source proportional to load current (ISENSE = IOUT/K), where K varies with load level and temperature (4400 typ. at 15A). An external resistor (RSENSE) converts this to a measurable voltage (VSENSE = ISENSE × RSENSE). ST recommends 3.9kΩ for 0–5V scaling at 45A; the pin supports up to 5V output and has 400Ω impedance during over-temperature fault reporting.
Does VN610SP13TR require an external flyback diode for inductive loads?
No external flyback diode is required. The device integrates an active VCC-clamp diode and internal demagnetization energy handling (EMAX = 193mJ at 13.5V), enabling safe turn-off of inductive loads like solenoids and motors. However, layout best practices - such as minimizing loop inductance and using Kelvin sensing for RSENSE - remain essential to avoid voltage overshoot beyond the 41–55V clamp range.
Is VN610SP13TR still in active production, and what is its obsolescence status?
Per STMicroelectronics' official documentation (Doc ID 6236 Rev 5), VN610SP13TR is marked "Obsolete Product(s)" in the datasheet header. However, Aetrix Electronics maintains legacy inventory and offers extended supply support, including last-time-buy planning, cross-reference assistance to pin-compatible successors (e.g., VNQ7E160AJ), and engineering consultation for migration paths in existing designs.
